May. 25th, 2002 01:01 pmYou know, I just realized I left out the funniest/scariest part of my trip. So I'm at DIA getting ready to fly out. I'm thinking how this is the first time I've flown after 9/11 and how it's stupid to be thinking that.
Anyway, as I'm getting ready to board the plane, the United employee who runs your boarding pass through that machine before you can go through the gate gives someone a hug and says "God Bless You." So I'm thinking "Oh, he must know them...and them... and them..and them and oh goodness he's hugging me and telling me 'God Bless You.'"
Now I know he was trying to be nice, but I don't know, coming from a complete stranger who is an airline employee, I was left wondering, "Does he know something I don't know?" It just had a certain note of finality to it that I wasn't comfortable with. Disturbing on several levels.
