Free Internet!

September 25, 2003

For the second time in a few months, I am stuck at an airport for an extended period of time. The last time I was making my way back from the backwoods of Manitoba, Canada. This time, I am trying to get to Chicago for the Jewish holidays. I have been here since 4:45 and my flight is at 8pm.* Now, I am killing time.

The question you are likely asking yourself is, "Hmm, I wonder how this brilliant young fellow is in an airport and on the internet?" I will tell you, good sir or madam. Today is "One Unwired Day", brought to you by Intel. In an effort to promote their new Centrino chip and wireless internet in general, the internet is free at a lot of hotspots today. So, I get to speak to you.

I realize now that I don't have a whole lot to say. I was all excited about the opportunity to use the internet and now I'm not sure what i want to tell you. Well, I will be here surfing the web if you decide you'd like to say hello. Shoot me an email or something.

*I got to the airport early with the hopes of going standby, but I found out that I have a restricted fare and cannot fly standby. I don't really understand the logic behind it but I almost never hear the words "logic" and "airport" in the same sentence.
