America Does Not Work Anymore

Twelve hours, t-w-e-l-v-e hours, after my alarm went off this morning I am at my destination. A less than two hour flight was delayed four and one-half hours. On arrival it took the airport and airline another hour and a half to deliver our baggage. If I had started driving at 6:00 a.m. I would have arrived in less time than it took to fly: 11:08-12:00.
