   Actually it used to be quite a bit worse. As a habit now I get to the airport slightly earlier just to check baggage so that all I bring on is my laptop. People don't realize how easy it is to do - the problem of course is waiting to get it. Business people don't have time to wait once the plane lands.
   
   Still though - the baggage thing is a MAJOR pet peeve of mine and I cannot stand it when the people at the front of the plane take their sweet time. I've actually been vocal with people on the plane over this shit. :(

   Agreed. It's bullshit. The balls of some people with trying to call these i-can-live-out-of-this-for-a-month suitcases "carry ons".

   hey now! some of us do live out of our carry ons for a month.
   Last time I flew they lost the bag I checked and mailed it to me later.
   Don't worry though, as a poor person I'm always in the back of the plane.

   The back of the plane is the best part of the plane. You can diddle your girlfriend or boyfriend without too many people noticing (particularly on redeyes) and you get to listen to the flight attendants tell horror stories about near-crashes.
   
   I *do* live out a suitcase when I travel. You'd be surprised what you can pack into a regulation size carry-on.
