    I think the wild mouse is smarter and gets off the treadmill because clearly - he isn't going anywhere.

    Gitmo lite is right on. I just don't fly anymore if I can get there another way. That means driving distances up to 1000 miles. If a train goes where I am going, I take it. Driving is tiresome, but not as stressful or annoying as dealing with the airports and the TSA. Overseas - you pretty much have to fly, but NY to anywhere on the eastern seaboard is within driving range allowing a day or two. The schedule is your own and no one is concerned with your butter knife, blunderbuss, camera, computer, gel insoles or bag count. You can stop and walk around when you want to. The dog can travel comfortably. You can actually see the country, have unlimited access to fresh air, eat something other than mini pretzles and it's more interesting - even on an interstate - than at 30,000 feet. Getting there is half the experience. Why make it a stress filled one?
