Arrivals and Departures

Another trip over as we await our luggage at ILM (Wilmington, NC).  We had a great time in a city we had never visited other than for business.  
The red eye from LAX was interesting.  I had the window and Gina the Aisle.  The middle seat was occupied by a young soldier in civilian clothes.  Non the less, the American Airlines thought it fit to provide him with (in a period of 10 minutes) 3 beers, that he promptly finished.  He told Gina he would be bothering her to get up multiple times.  He wanted the aisle seat.  He went on a talking jag before getting sleepy and collapsing on both me and Gina.  We had to get the flight attendants to wake him and threaten him (after they got him drunk).  I think he may also had some additional small booze bottles in his pockets.  At least he didn't throw up.  Our flight from Charlotte to Wilmington was an uneventful 35 minutes.

Today marks the 339th anniversary of the birth of Johann Sebastian Bach.  Give a LISTEN
