drunk in the airport...

I had a flight to Chicago and I arrived (as usual) early to the airport and made it through security.
Having some time to kill, I stopped at the bar in the terminal because you can smoke there and started drinking and forgot about my flight. Suddenly remembering the time, I realized my flight was due to leave in 5 minutes and so I payed up and ran to the gate. They were shutting up the concourse to the plane and it was backing out.. The guy called the plane and they pulled back up and they opened the door for me and I had to jump over a two foot gap into the plane (over a 25ft drop) and crashed into a stewardess.. Finally making it to my seat I proceeded to pass out, waking in Chicago (in January) a few hours later.
Clearly this was pre-9/11 … this would never happen now.

  1. what is that pic from?

  2. the picture is taken from the intersection of pirates alley with the other little unnamed alley next to it.. My friend owned that cigar stoore, and the seating on the immediate right is Pirates Alley cafe, which was my home away from home.. Further down on the right is a Haagen Daz store.. and if you were to turn left, the picture would be down the alley into Jackson square. I have spent countless hours in this spot.
