Visual Amusement. (Keep it clean!)

Burt was legendary on Carson's old show... so successful they talked about him doing his own show, either replacing Johnny at one point or doing the Letterman slot before Dave got it.  

Two other thoughts:

Props to Marc for holding his own

Norm's impersonation on SNL was so so good....

He’s about to go all Sonny Corleone on that spray bottle. 😂

Did you know that James Caan based his Sonny mannerisms on Don Rickles?  And John Ventemiglia, Artie Bucco from The Sorpanos, based his on James Caan doing Sonny.

Nothing brings out the "I hate people" vibe in me than airports.  I enjoy them to people watch.  Everybody in such a hurry to get to the next step to wait.  Run to the terminal so you can sit around for 45 minutes.  Rush to jump up so you can wait to have your ticket scanned and stand in the corridor which is not temp regulated.   Rush to stand up after landing so you can can sit there holding your crap.  Run to the shuttle/tram to the luggage even though another one is coming in 3 minutes  Run from the shuttle/tram to the luggage area so you can wait for your luggage....

I also say there needs to be two lines.  one for people who have their shit together and one for those who don't.  Line A is "no questions.  Just process.  No exceptions or deviations."

haha..

When i was flying a lot (like more than twice a month ) I soon realized that there was a small fraternity of the burned out who I would wait with on the concourse until the last boarding section was called even if our seats were in 1st class.....

I think this is why so many comedians have airport/airline jokes. It's a goldmine of comedic material. Add in the modern entitled Karen mentality and portable devices, YouTube channels are prospering.

That's the joy of programs like Clear and Pre Check. However due to staffing and budget concerns the savvy prepared traveler is often bunched in with folks flying Air Trailways (worse than Air Greyhound).

Having spent a huge amount of time either working or manning the volunteer information desks at DTW, I've learned some patience. But still have little for those who don't read signs and demand to be led by the hand.
