Seventeen Years Old and Still One of the Best

Whenever I'm in an airport, I always think of that beautifully played scene in When Harry Met Sally when the two not-yet-lovebirds reunite in the airport years after taking the most awkward road trip in cinema history together. Harry trades places with the guy next to Sally, explains that he's getting married, they catch up and reminisce some, and then as they are both walking through the concourse she reminds him that he once stated that men and women can never really be friends. He agrees that he was wrong and in the course of the conversation they wrap up the greatest two-part cinematic dialogue about the can-men-and-women-be-friends debate.



Normally, when people think of that movie, they think of the scene in the diner and, yeah, that's pretty good, too.



But this week's roundtable is all about airports. Move over Parisian cafes, S.K. at Incurable Insomniac thinks aiports are the best place for people watching. That is, if you don't have your head buried in a newspaper, book, portable DVD player or video iPod. Most people I know don't really like airports at all, but either way, drop on by and offer your favorite airport or airport-related story. Or just keep saying the word "airport" like I do. Airport airport airport....
