When you look at this picture, what do you see?
Maybe I’ve been across the pond too many times.
I see KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, and not a 747, that plane has a dome on top. This is newer model craft, might have good entertainment and functioning USB plugs.
I see the wicked-smart interpol agent at the transition between KLM and Delta.
She is interrogating a woman in hijab who had traveled from Iraq with tickets purchased in cash.
Is cash sketchy or just the only way to purchase tickets in an economy that runs on money rather than credit?
We are both cleared after a stern-look over.
Nothing good comes from Africa or the Middle-East, but now that I’ve decided not to put you in prison, have a nice flight!
And remember to open an ING savings account next time you’re in town!
Did I mention, stern Interpol agent, that orange is my favorite color?
Though I’m American by passport, I’m Dutch when it comes to speed-skating.
Funny you didn’t ask me about my sporting loyalties.
Though it’s beautiful, I don’t suppose I’ll ever tour Amsterdam, visit the Anne Frank…
