Entering the turkey-tryptophan haze to wish everyone a happy holiday. Celebrations here (I'm in Boston for the annual Weatherlow gala) don't begin until tomorrow but I wanted to extend wishes to all.
The flight up was mostly uneventful. The only stark reminder of the radical shift we've gone through was seeing a two or three year old toddler, a little blond thing with spiky pigtails, being wand searched and patted down at the security checkpoint. She just looked bewlidered. As did we all.
That, and the kid who got busted for carrying a pizza cutter in his backpack. Mom was ranting and raving,"i've had that pizza cutter for twenty years! I told you to take it out before you came! It was a school prject from last week! Why are you still carrying my pizza cutter? You do realize I'll never see that pizza cutter again, don't you? Twenty years I've had that!" So, be warned, folks.
