I just read the following article. It justt may sway some of you who have been hesitant to travel because of increased airfares and airline fees.

I am assuming you know that The Onion is a satirical site...

Anita, I figured it out when I got to this: a one-time payment of $40 for any American whose name is Greg. 😉

The Onion's been around for a looooong time. I remember it from its print days, pre-internet. Sometimes something just tickles my funny bone and I want to share the laugh.

The Onion is a trip. Honestly, they took away the food and you are lucky to get a drink of water on some airlines... anything to bring in the bucks. Kinda scary but I think that if they found a way to do it, we'd be in trouble.
