You don’t need to look to know.

I miss the old days. They were more refined times. Back then, you’d only see such brawls at your local Waffle House.

Sgt. Major Bromhead [the Zulus are chanting before their final charge]: Do you think the Welsh can’t do better than that, Owen?
Pvt. Owen: Well, they’ve got a very good bass section, mind, but no top tenors that’s for sure.

Picture one of those old, black and white Western Movies from the 1930’s. There is a bar scene, all the tables are full.
Somebody walks in and sits down, but in the ‘wrong’ chair.
Suddenly, fists are flying. New fights are breaking out all over the barroom floors, as people chose whose side they’re on.

Now, change all the characters to young black people, at an Airport Boarding desk area. Everybody under 30. Everybody in yoga pants and bomber jackets. Some are fighting with one hand, talking on their cell phone with the other.

Did the Atlanta airport defund the police?

It was done better at the end of Blazing Saddles. Slim Pickens would have made short work of these gangsta wannabes.

George Will said in the 1990s, high airline travel prices used to mean only upper and upper middle class people or business and professional people flew. Now “the lower orders can afford tickets” and this means they don’t dress up or act in a civil manner.

Just watched the JFK time travel movie by Stephen King called 11.22.63 and the firm advice to the young man was “in the 1960’s a grown man wore a suit and a hat.”

I noticed even in Three Stooges movies the men all wore suits all over the place, even shabby ones if they were out of work. And men in bread lines usually wore them.

The Big Lebowski: “How are you going to go out and look for a job today dressed like that?”

I wouldn’t want to be stuck in a tube at 30000 feet with those loony animals.

I have no interest in flying anymore.

Photo on bottom....

Man in back: “I’d be willing to bet threesomes never crossed your mind.”
“Hope you didn’t bet a lot because you’d lose.”

Woman seated, looking appreciatively at the “Stewardess.”
“Hope you believe in love at first sight because I do.”

There are just a few airports you avoid when traveling no exceptions. Atlanta is top of the list.
