even if you are a frequent flyer..

When you fly, the latest craze seems to be to start the safety announcement with a suggestion that even though you've heard this a million times before, please listen because we want you to enjoy the sound of our voices as much as we do. Upon landing at my destination this morning however it seems that the lady to my right either wasn't paying attention or really doesn't fly very much. You see I used to make fun of the fact that they told you how to buckle and unbuckle your seatbelt in a plane, but apparently it was too complicated for her and I actually had to offer my professional seatbelt opening services. Since I only live 15 minutes from the airport and even I had to get up at 5am to catch my flight, I'll give her the benefit of doubt - perhaps she had an even more unearthly start than I did.
