So I’m in California for 1 1/2 days to meet with an awesome financial web company, Yodlee. Silicon Valley is so cool. Overall, the trip has gone pretty well so far, but without the usual inconveniences:
- Airport security confiscated my hair gel and toothpaste. How stupid! Do I look like a freakin’ Muslim terrorist?! It’s bad enough we have to all take off our shoes. Pew.
- The flight attendant was old, fat, and very unfriendly. She bumped my elbow quite abruptly when I was playing an important game of solitaire on my PDA, and she didn’t even think of apologizing!
- The hassles of renting a car. And at the San Francisco International airport, you don’t have to shuttle-bus off-site to the rental car lot, but there’s very long tram ride to a massive facility. And that’s after you’ve solved the lengthy maze to even get the the tram.
