Didn't miss the flight but still entertaining

Another flight from Houston to Tyler. Overbooked. Asked for volunteers. I took it. To get me home they put me in first class on a regional to Dallas. At Dallas they gave me a cab voucher from DFW to Tyler Pounds. A 100 mile cab ride
.

First cabby wanted no part of it. Second cab jumped at the chance. Pakistan, if I remember correctly. Off we go. He then says
"I don't really want to go but my brother would love the trip. He also has a cab. He lives just a mile from here."

I say to myself what choice do I have. So I agree. We pull up to an apartment and the driver jumps out and runs in. A few minutes later the brother comes running out with a paper bag. Jumps in and hands me the bag. A 6 pack of Heineken. I didn't have a bottle opener so he would open.them up with his.teeth. Quite a trip

I've never been late for a flight...

In fact one time I was a month early.

Oh I was pissed off. So much for buying a discounted flight online. Correct flight, time, day, just the wrong month argh.

Now I triple check all the details before I hit "buy".
