So, I'm booking plane tickets for Christmas today...
I'm talking to the rep at the airline and she puts me on hold at one point, telling me, "uh... hold on... there's a flag on your name...."
A flag? On my name? Oh no! Am I back on the watch list?? Did I get moved to the no-fly list?? What evil Homeland Security device could possibly be flagging my name when I'm trying to book tickets home for Christmas??!
She comes back a few minutes later, "May I have your current address, Mr. Luther"
"My current address," I reply, "What for?" Are they planning on sending the FBI over right now??!\
"The last couple of statements for your frequent flier account were returned with a bad address. Are you no longer in Tucson, Arizona?"
Oh. Oh, yeah.
