Being an Urban Flâneur in an Airport
This represents an 'on-the-fly' blog entry while I am in an airport waiting to board. While on one surface, it is offers a place to people watch, it not a very tranquil place. One is forced to listen to piped in music and other peoples conversations--particulalry if they are on cell phones. Then, the constant announcements for people that are being paged for a flight. I wonder if these people show up. The best is when Americans slaughter foreign names. The best accents for this is a New York accent or a deep South accent. I can't blog anymore, as they are calling my flight.
