Flying, driving, and wallets, oh my!

Today’s Gratitude

I am thankful that in our post 9/11 world, it is still possible to fly without identification. Pdad called me from the airport at 6 a.m. this morning to ask if his wallet was in his pants. Yep. I offered to throw the kids in the van and drive it up to him at the airport (an hour away). If you knew how I felt about driving, you would know that this was quite an offer. (He had a very important meeting). Anyway, Pdad determined that I wouldn’t be able to get there soon enough and he was still going to miss his flight.

In the end, he was somehow able to fly after all, though it necessitated going through extra security. Whew! Now he is in faraway city with no money,* and no ID. I do hope we’ll see him tomorrow. (*Well, okay, exing my tendency to hyperbole: he says he borrowed some from a coworker).

    You are right, you don’t need ID to fly. You can see this blog for more details: http://flywithoutid.blogspot.com/
