Are you traveling this week? Does it concern you?


TOPICS: Miscellaneous
KEYWORDS:
My soccer team (16 players) are traveling from Central Pennsylvania to Tampa, Florida for a Major Soccer Tournament. These 18 year olds are Showcasing their skill in front of over 400 College Coaches for Scholarships.

These will be the finest 80 Club Teams in the USA. My question is this, are any of you concerned or even scared of traveling during this week considering the Orange alert?

I'm traveling next door for a gala Christmas dinner.

I'll go there by a circuitous route through the bushes so I'm not observed. Neither rain, sleet, snow or Orange Alert can keep me from traveling those 20 yards!

I am driving to mom's house about 20 miles away. Not too worried about the sicko terrorists, more worried about the 270 sniper (I drive through that area daily).

"can't wait to get back to work"

You need more vacation, your sick.

I have flown (is that a word?) all my life, this time I am not comfortable.

"I'm traveling next door for a gala Christmas dinner."

Sounds great. Take care.

I'm still trying to figure out the word "gala" when it is said in California.

In California, more likely it's "gaga", LOL.

My point is. I get in on an airplane this Thursday Morning. Should I be concerned?

I traveled back from Texas to Los Angeles on Tuesday. Wasn't concerned until, on the plane, the pilot made the warning that, for security reasons, passengers needed to stay in their seats during the flight except for bathroom visits. Never heard that before.
