Oct 18, 2007 - Warsaw

Well, here we are in Warsaw, in the business class lounge (again, yawn!).  The flight was fine.  They had the coolest seats in b-class - like something out of the Jetsons, with all the push-button controls for moving the seat back and forth, extending the foot rests, etc.  We also got hand-held personal video players!  I expected Mr. Spacely to come on at any time and yell at me for goofing off on the job!
 
Unfortunately, I couldn't sleep a wink; probably a sub-conscious things about the pilot needing me to be awake in order to fly the plane properly.  It worked, because it was an uneventful flight.
 
Anyway, we have a couple of hours here before we leave for Prague. 
 
And get this: in the lounge here they have unlimited Coke in little glass BOTTLES!!!  I haven't seen that since 1965.  The Coke tastes so much better this way; I'm going to OD on it.  And it brings back so many memories of my youth - young, free, uninhibited...........sigh.
 
Other than that - and the fact that everyone is speaking Polish and all the newspapers are in Polish, and the TV is blaring some Polish billiards contest - I could be anywhere.  Everyone looks the same, 2 eyes, 2 lips, a nose, etc.
 
Well, time for another Coke - I've been 5 minutes without and it's either another one or go join Brittany in rehab!
