Jet lag or a hangover?

1. Taking the high road and calling it jet lag.

I flew from Washington DC to Frankfurt, Frankfurt to Lyon. And then took a bus from Lyon to Grenoble.

I was much younger than he is, and I looked like I'd had a bus parked on me.

Flying sucks, even in the quality of surroundings that he gets.

Now, when we see him look like that back here...

2. They have a fricking King Size Bed with a living room on Air Force one

I'm sure your plane didn't have that.

4. Nope. I was in the last row, against the window.

You know the part of the plane where the body tapers? I was back there. The row in the center of the plane was full of completely blitzed Russians who kept getting up and down and waking up everybody within 6 rows.

5. I've traveled too many times to Europe including flying Braniff

Remember them? They filled the bathrooms up with trash so
we only had one bathroom. We were traveling with our 2 year old at the time
and the plane was full. Not quite like Air Force one. The pResident was been there
3 or 4 days there now. Its hardly jet lag.



His office

6. To be fair...

He gets that office as part of the job, it's not like it's extra.

When the next president is in office, they'll have that office too. Although, I think we should just take everything Bush touched, torch it, and start over.

I can't imagine traveling to Europe with a child. Air pressure, noise, stale air, crappy seats, bad food, cramped spaces. Yow.

3. Yeah, I think he's on the high road, too...
