Reagan National in DC is very patriotic, as expected.

Not that I’ve hung around urinals that much (I think I’ve actually seen one once), but these sinks at O’Hare look like they’re styled after urinals.

Pretty early morning photo of planes at O’Hare.

When did they start handing out coupons in-flight? Got this on my way to Newark.

For the record, I’d rather just wait for my bags, thanks.

    i noticed a lot of frogs in the pictures and the pentominoes shapes.. but i wasnt able, or maybe wasnt patient enough, to use the pictures to figure out the story.

    You’re mostly right about those sinks looking like urinals. Although, most urinals are stand alone items. What your picture really reminded me of the troughs for urination, which in my mind are always associated with men’s rooms in Wrigley.

    I just came through DCA yesterday but I didn’t stop in the bathrooms. I’ll have to go check out the sinks.

    They have one of those Windows Mobile ads at one of the ends of the light tunnel at O’Hare, too. It says something like, “Review PowerPoint presenation, or look at the pretty lights?” Again, duh, pretty lights!
