Lol,
My dad would say....."Easy, Tiger!"

Thanks!!!


I know that the most obviously 'distressed' people are interviewed for television. The gal on the tube was acting like she was going to implode.

I thought someone had taken her out back somewhere and beat the crap out of her..

It's that hysterical persona that people put on that bugs me. Yelling at people, threatening lawsuits and acting out makes it harder for everyone around her to get a grip on the situation.

In the same report they had a picture of some guy passed out across a set of those plastic airport chairs.......THAT SUCKED!

I had more empathy for him!

Some people do realize the 'scale' of life's hassles. It's just disturbing seeing people act that way over something that isn't life threatening..

I am sure your friend has a better head on her shoulders that the bimbette on the tube...


Tears over lost luggage or lost loved ones?

Barbara,

So you know!-

Here in America there was a computer crash of an airliners computer-and a union strike that left thousands of people stranded in airports across the country.

The airlines cancelled a few thousand flights and separated the fliers from their luggage. People were stuck in the airports for days.

It was troublesome, to me, to see people upset about an unfortunate situation that would soon be over.....

A few days for the travelers.....the rest of their lives for the people in the area affected by the tsunami.
