Jorge

This one comes from George Bush IAH, where I'm waiting for the flight. Security procedures were professional and efficient enough (although I still had to take off my hiking shoes -- steel shank). No wi-fi access in Terminal C that I can detect with Netstumbler, but the Sprint PCS vision makes a nice backup.

I used to use Park and Fly for parking and shuttle service, but it's been horrible the last few times, so we gave Ampco a try this time. Most excellent! We had an Hispanic driver named Jorge who pushed that little shuttle right to the limit. Indeed, I don't think Jorge knows what "Speed Limit" or "Yield" mean necessarily. And he hit a couple of tight curves so fast I thought he would surely have the shuttle tipping, but it didn't. Jorge seems to be the master of his equipment, and it was certainly my fastest trip to IAH from external parking ever.

Go Jorge! And go Ampco!

Lots of people seem to be waiting for this Tulsa flight. Looks to be crowded.
