Just wondering, what are you guys thinking?

I have to fly to SF at the end of October for my friend's wedding. I don't like airplane, now I don't even know do I want to step in one. There is more news on more attacks. When will this madness stop.

Just flew home on Tuesday, will fly back up to Chicago in a week. Am I scared? Nope, I would have slept like a baby on the way home this week if the current edition of "Entertainment Weekly" hadn't been so fascinating!

...........if I wasn't putting every penny toward my "02 I would fly today. There are some great deals out there right now, both airline and hotel, and American business would welcome your participation. I also feel that any terrorist would realize that the security at airports and on the airlines is at an all time high, and not to try that particular act of terrorism again.
I pray I am right on that one.

...........and I know it sounds cliche" but if they stop us leading normal lives, they win"

I'm not flying now or since, but I wouldn't have a problem with it either. I just wouldn't fly to Afghanistan any time in the near future!
