Plane Truth

Unlike Whoopi Goldberg and Aretha Franklin (if still true), I don't have a fear of flying. It's not my favorite mode of travel (I like trains), but is the quickest (if you don't count the three hours of prep to get to the airport). Of course turbulence is no joy, nor is paying for my bags to fly with me, or the loud talking, bear snoring, armrest hoarding passenger who is inevitably seated next to me. But sitting next to me may not be a day in the park either. My ears always hurt when I fly, so I'm constantly opening and closing my mouth to relieve the pressure. Don’t suggest chewing gum it doesn't work. I'm sure the poor soul who happens to catch a glance at me probably thinks I have a major physical disorder, but no-just stuffy ears. What about you? What's your plane truth? The funnier and wackier, the better.
