    Not the first time; won't be the last

    I still remember when Delta swallowed up Northeast Airlines; that's when Delta first moved into New England. I miss the Northeast "Yellowbirds" that used to fly to Florida.

    I loved the paragraph about folks thinking of Paris while scraping snow and going to work. Reminded me of the "Mom's passport" scene in "Breaking Away" -- one of my favorites.
