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.
