People who choose the fastest and most efficient way to get there, deserve what they get.	AnotherMcIntosh	Dec 2011	#12
"So what"? That's your argument?	bluesbassman	Dec 2011	#14
People choose to argue or not. The observation is not an argument.	AnotherMcIntosh	Dec 2011	#25

Hawaii? And you want sympathy? Just stand in line. And bleet out a "Baa."	AnotherMcIntosh	Dec 2011	#27
What is the difference between Hawaii and any other state to visit Friends?	RC	Dec 2011	#29
No difference between Hawaii and other states? Ever been to Texas? Alabama? Georgia?	AnotherMcIntosh	Dec 2011	#33
um, they're not? ho boy, don't come back to the south any time soon	pitohui	Dec 2011	#64
Yea, right. Given a choice, some people would rather go to an orange beach than Hawaii. Sure.	AnotherMcIntosh	Dec 2011	#73

You of course are aware that there are certain places	nadinbrzezinski	Dec 2011	#54
The fact that you cannot drive to certain destinations does not mean that must fly to them.	AnotherMcIntosh	Dec 2011	#75
Except when you have family there	nadinbrzezinski	Dec 2011	#76
That's your exception. Stand in line and bleet out a "baa" if you want. But don't expect sympathy.	AnotherMcIntosh	Dec 2011	#80
I see, so you really do not have a real answer	nadinbrzezinski	Dec 2011	#83
Wrong. I just gave you an answer. I can give you an explanation. I can't give you understanding.	AnotherMcIntosh	Dec 2011	#84
Alas if you think the Airlines want TSA to go away, they do	nadinbrzezinski	Dec 2011	#85

Are you serious or sarcastic? T first I thought you were sarcastic but now I'm not sure...	Quantess	Dec 2011	#88
Serious, but not overly so. The choice that you offer is not one that I can understand.	AnotherMcIntosh	Dec 2011	#90
We shouldn't have to choose between putting up with ridiculous overreactions from the TSA	Quantess	Dec 2011	#91
No one here is saying any such thing.	AlwaysQuestion	Dec 2011	#94
How would that work,	Quantess	Dec 2011	#95
