My View For Awhile: All good things come to an end

It has been great being in “the North” again, where there are normal tree and normal grass and you can have the windows open in the evening and hear crickets and cicadas.   Alas, I didn’t spot a chickadee.

UPDATE

All things come to an end apart from waiting for this airplane.

We are delayed over an hour getting out of Chicago. I’ll have a very tight connection because of this.

At least I’ll have the memory of going to SUPERDAWG!!!

Terrific hot dogs. And the burgers are great too.

 UPDATE

WE ARE SO LATE

Playing on the speaker is a cover of an Elton John song by a young lady who doesn’t seem to be aware of the concept of melody. There is no single note, there are at least four squeezed into each beat. What’s with that? It’s ludicrous. If you didn’t have an idea of the melody from the original you’d have no clue at all about what she is trying to accomplish other than perhaps annoy dogs and cats.

We are soooo late.

UPDATE

We were still taxiing when boarding started for my next flight. Then I got the gate change message – three concourses farther away and then a hoof yonder.

Furthermore they told us to stay seated because someone had to get out first. That’s when armed LEOs came on.

I was the last to board.

Meanwhile this was fun on the last flight.

UPDATE

INCREDIBLY I got a text that my bag is on THIS plane. How they do that amazes me.

UPDATE

Light reading on the French Defense.
