Place: Dulles Airport, D.C.
Celeb: Congressman Dana Rohrabacher



Catching a United flight back to LAX after a grueling week of training for work. The hordes of frenzied travellers swarm around me in what seems to be one of the worst organized airports I've been to. No crowd control, no direction. We're all packed into the tighter International terminal, waiting to board the plane which just came in from Switzerland. Families with strollers caught between bodies, seniors dawdling, and indecisive people crashing into each other everywhere. I decide to remain still with one ear cocked for the boarding announcement. Suddenly behind me, a tall man in a clean, tan suit bumps up to me. He is fresh faced, cool, unsweaty like the rest of us. I think he looks familiar. Real familiar. Is he that grouchy guy behind the counter in the show, ER? Wheels spin and spin then I realize-- Asshole! Global Warming denier! Then I start to debate whether a plane with Rohrabacher could crash or not.
