I was waiting in line to board the aircraft. I had one stop over where I would need to change planes in Phoenix. I was forced to listen to a couple of women talking behind me and began to fear that I might be stuck sitting next to one of them. Their mouths were on automatic. Together they were a wonder of nature. Alone they were looking for a target.
Suddenly my ears were on alert. One of the women asked the other, “Are you going all the way to Phoenix?” For a brief moment I wondered if there was a stop in between that I had missed. I want you to be proud of me though because of my self control. I didn’t even turn around to look at them. I assumed they were democrats.
No, they did not sit by me.
