I love this....
I can still recite the "talk"....
once memorized I am not sure you would ever
forget it.
I have been "retired"
for over 15 years,
but there are still nights that I dream
about being late to the airport.....
sheer terror.
It was not a job for the perpetually
late......
or for those who need hours to dress.....
or for those with OCD.....
But it was (and is!) a fabulous job
for the young person afflicted with wanderlust...
