Quick airport advice

Quick tip from what I noticed going into LAX: take a cab.

They were stopping all vehicles entering the airport, backing up traffic. There seemed to be a separate lane for cab drivers. If you drive an SUV, forget it. They had every one of them pulled over when I drove by, running wand things all over them, looking inside, and practically fisting the drivers.

Cab driver also said if you're car is cluttered on the inside they'll pull you aside as well. According to him, taxi drivers now have to keep the inside of their vehicles uncluttered or get fined (but, cab drivers lie, so YMMV).

EVERYBODY PANIC.

 

These ears want you to stfu

My mom is listening to some band called Reba Macintyre. They're not Irish. It's some guy and that "Reba" chick from TV whining back and forth. The lyrics are awful, and it sounds like the sound a group of cats would make if you showered them with hydrochloric acid while they were being fisted by very angry, rabid porcupines.

these arms wanna hold you
these lips wanna kiss you
these eyes wanna blah blah
...and these hands wanna rip your vocal chords out with a staple remover

Make it stop!
