I fely sorry for myself, that I had no luggage, until I met the man who had no landing gear.
When I touched down in NJ on Monday the airline had lost my luggage. At first I wasn't worried. There was nothing of monetary value inside. Then I realized I packed 1/4 of my prized concert t-shirt collection into it. Luckily, they found and delivered it the next night.
Last night I was sitting in the bar, eating a mediocre burger, when I noticed on the CNN that an Airbus 320 had been circling LAX for a couple of hours. Their front landing gear was cocked at 90 degrees and stuck. It was rivetting. Normally I can't stand more than 3 minutes of TV news at a time, but I had to watch until they landed. Goes to show that I'm not immune to a good news story.

I did the same thing. I was walking out of work to see that several people were already camped out in front of the TV in the lobby. I probably burned the better part of the hour before it landed.
