More Mindless Travel Blogging

I never read USA Today except for when a hotel employee puts it outside my door for "free." An article in today's edition about an on-plane dating service gave me a chuckle, particularly this closing paragraph:

With airline load factors running high, Shankman acknowledges that switching seats at the gate could mean that one of the "matched" parties ends up in the loathsome middle seat.

"You're not going to go from coach to first (class) or from 34A by the bathroom to an exit row. But if you're with someone you want to talk to, it doesn't matter," says Shankman, who is unmarried. "If a beautiful woman e-mailed me and said, 'I want to sit next to you,' I would chew off my right arm to sit in 34B."

Eat your heart out, Eharmony.

P.S. I promise I will post something substantial—eventually.
