Well, I'll bid for something, but I'm not going to pay an arm and a leg for it.

no, it's real - look online - so basically, when no one claims lost bags after something like 120 dys, they buy them and sell the stuff !

tracys2cents this has all been too funny. I think you should send a recap of this thread to ellen degeneres to do a special on her show, with special up front seats for you and your aunt and and when Ellen does her opening dancing sequence your aunt can really shake a leg

Thank you, tracy, for starting immeasurable fun these last few days! I wish I was HALF as witty as all you contributors!

canterbury,

Anyone can be witty. You just have to concentrate and take it one step at a time. Soon you will be a leg up on everyone. Oh, and a couple of stiff drinks help. It's a good crutch.8-)

Hey, tracy, did you send this thread to America West/US Airways? They should know they're getting some baaad publicity! I hope they made it up to your aunt; this is not a good way for them to 'get a leg up' on the competition!

Dusty, you naughty knowledgable Hawaii expert... I'm SHOCKED!!!
Tracy, prayers have been answered, as your thread has accomplished the feet of achieving publicity (I'll skip word play on that) in USA Today on 2/17/2006. A coincidence? I think not!!

Sorry, folks. Try adding 2 additonal w's to the above. S/be www.usatoday etc.
Blame it on Dusty-caused LOL, leading to pondering zen essence of the sound of one leg spreading.

I was just reading back through all these clever responses and, either I'm missing it, or Fodor's removed one of the most clever. Can anyone find the response that talked about carrion luggage?

I'm assuming the poster spelled carry on as "carrion?" I just pressed CTRL F and did a search for "carrion" and it's not there. Hmmm.... :-?

Hope your aunt is feeling better.

It's not easy to be a square-peg-person in a round-hole world of air travel.
