"I'm in the American first class lounge at SFO. We fly in about 1 1/2 hours."
Hmmm, that surely must be a pleasant experience! SF is renowned for its great food and coffee. I'll bet they've got some really good stuff there in the first class lounge! And loads of Internet connections too! <g>

SHUT UP! :-)
You pay for booze (in a first class lounge???). The coffee they got for free, but I want to ge some sleep (maybe) on the flight. And the only food is dried pretzels.
AND there was only ONE computer in the whole place.

"(Hey! Cabs around here are LOUSY. You never know when they will show up. You want to make your flight, you allow lots of time.)"
Well, what do you expect in The Land of Eternal Gridlock?

Gridlock has nothing to do with this. The problem is no one at any cab company speaks English. Or knows how to run a cab company.

"Next stop, Miamia about 4 AM. Try to get you from there. Then on to Central America."
Where is Miamia? I googled it, but got no hits.
SHUT UP! You knew what I meant! :-)
OK. I'm in Miamia now. In the first class lounge again. Five hours to the flight to Honduras. At least the have more computers here. Of course, more people waiting to get on too.

Anyway, have a great trip and watch out for big and little creepy crawly creatures and falling rocks.
And doctors (medicos, as they are called down there). They are the most dangerous creatures of all.

Is Laz off on one of his multiple country explorations? Would appear so.
