In the Air

I noticed there is a lot of air rage these days. Passengers have angry physical outbursts on planes.  I'm an ordinary guy, but I understand what is happening. The last 3 flights I took, I was very angry; I restrained my anger, all you would see is my expressionless poker face, you wouldn't know I felt very angry but I was. I felt like I didn't have any personal space and the seat in-front of me reclined without warning and pushed my tray table into my stomach slightly. I had no personal space, not even an armrest to myself. I also noticed many of the long distance flights had been dropped permanently since the pandemic so I was forced to take connecting flights. The trouble with connecting flights is you get worried you'll miss the flight if your first flight is delayed. To cut a long story short, you feel like the air line is taking the piss out of you. To top it off, I noticed they were giving out gin and tonic and wine drinks; it is as if the airline wants the passengers to fight. Take away their personal space, make them stressed and get them drunk, a good mix. They should take away the undersold first class, set the lighting to pink and provide seating that lets everyone have their own personal space, everyone has an arm rest to themselves. They will lose some of their seats but there will be less unsold seats and you could put special boxes on unsold seats to add to the air freight of the plane.  


I learn something new every day, today I learned that most of your taste comes from smell. You can trick yourself into thinking you're drinking flavoured water when you're actually drinking plain tap water.  There is a product that capitalises on this human trait, air Up. It is a drink bottle that feeds a scent in the air to your nose and makes you feel like the water you're drinking is flavoured. 

very clever.

Christmas day

Today is Christmas day, the most important day of the year. The first six hours of this day I am working but the rest of the day and the following 4 days I am off. It is one of the few days of the year where I drink alcohol. I have saved some nice whiskey for when I get home. I will watch TV and be merry.

Today I will be more thankful than normal. I am thankful for life and all the good things that come with it. I am thankful that I am not afflicted with a terrible disease or illness. I am thankful for the creator for making everything. I am thankful that I am not forced by others to do violence. I am thankful for being able to read because reading books is so wonderful and there are so many wonderful books to read.

I have one wish for the year and that is to be rich, not because of greed but because I want to be free of worries and have time to do good deeds. I am not ashamed of wanting wealth because everyone wants it. There are so many things I want to do and so many things I want to accomplish and they all cost money.

If you have read this far then I am thankful to you because this is a part of history. History is not just about the big companies and people but all the people of the world and how they see the world around them and what happens in their lives.
