Signs of the Season

They de-iced our plane this morning.
Our boarding was delayed momentarily when an LA lad refused to pay $65 extra for his oversized luggage. He had no money. He attempted to solve the problem by bolting for the jetway. They slammed the door and police were called. It was actually kind of humorous and also sad. What was his plan if he made it on to the plane? Fly it himself?
Sanity was restored for the time being. Once we got on board and the door sealed, a family discovered that not all members were present. Two were still in an MSP lavatory, a telephone contact revealed. The captain didn't want to unseal the door, of course. So the remaining family members were put on a later flight.
Going to LaLa land. Uff Da.
It's sunny and warm at Hotel California though.
