Home again home again, lickety split

Of course the trip home was eventful. Salt Lake City is lovely, especially from the airport. Seriously, can we get some mass transit out there people? On the flight home we had the flight attendant who thought he was a comedian "Welcome to Delta Flight 9886 to Bermuda.....Please turn off your Blackberries, Blueberries, Strawberries, Bananas and Pineapples...." I did however appreciate his coming on later to say "If that is your child running up and down the aisles please seat him before someone in the back of the plane trips him because he is currently preventing us from continuing beverage service to the rest of the plane."
So we taxi to the runway area and sit. And sit. Finally Funny Man comes on and says "The tower has pushed us back about an hour and half...." at which point a yell went up in the plane. "Now hold on people, I HEARD the pilot say "Do you understand this is a plane full of New Yorkers? That's unacceptable." It looks like its going to be about twenty minutes." So not too bad. We land and start just driving around. Funny Guy comes back on with "So....now we're looking for a parking space..."
