Miscellany

Scene: Chapel of the Holy Spirit, Assumption College, Worcester, MA. The crucified Jesus hangs suspended over the altar, flanked by the gorgeous organ pipes. The sopranos are called to the front of the nave.

Josie: *makes a "snap...pull" motion*
Cindy: I love when you do things like that.
Josie: You mean black people things?
Cindy:....um, yes.
Josie: It's okay, Jesus says it's okay. He told me.

Celia sent me a link to an article about idiots at the FAA talking about expanding O'Hare and Midway even more, or even adding a third airport to the area to meet increasing demand. I have the following comment.

It just amazes me because like...TEXAS
Has tons of space, right
But you know what Texas does not have?
LAKE EFFECT SNOW

Also, the mere mention of an O'Hare expansion strikes terror into my very soul. Listen people, eventually, travelers are going to STOP ESCAPING FROM O'HARE if you keep this shit up. I am STILL getting over the time I flew United out of there via a waiting area with four gates off of it, each gate loading two planes. Did I mention that the big, beautiful flat screens were broken and thus displaying information about flights that had left eons ago?

Josie: b.) it is actually a pretty neat town
Josie: c.) it has camden yards
Josie: and d.) there were really nice homeless people there who helped me get home when Greyhound thought Annapolis and Baltimore were the same and I was stuck in the city in full formal wear
