My name is vagabond and I'm a pack rat. I guess you could also say I'm a kleptomaniac since there is nothing out there I don't like and won't take.
So it is that I have in my possession some souvenirs collected from the many, many airlines I have flown, both domestic and international, defunct and still hanging on.
Some of you might remember the 5 styrofoam planes with "Federal Express" printed on them. I gave 4 of them away to folks right here on APC. [I hope you guys still have them!]
Then, of course, there are the famous real spoons and forks stamped with "Northwest Orient." I am so glad my father thought to put as many of them as he could into his briefcase after every meal. Man, those are good cutlery.
In one of the nightstands (with the drawer kinda stuck), I have many of those little toilet kits they used to give to international passengers. They have little toothbrushes, toothpaste, socks, ear plugs, etc in them. I have kits from Cathay Pacific, Scandinavian Airlines, United.
I also have in the bathroom drawer little bars of soap wrapped in blue paper printed with the Pan Am logo. Seeing them brought tears to my eyes.
Down in the kitchen, I have a small plastic container of soy sauce. The container is shaped like a fish. It is from Korean Airlines.
And stashed here and there all over the place are barf bags, inflight magazines and beverage napkins. LOT Polish Airlines, Singapore Airlines, Finn Air, Czech Airlines, Malev, Philippine Airlines.
What do you have in your drawers?
