Now we all know that recent ecenomic woes have had a serious effect on the travel industry;
in order to recoop losses, most airlines are implementing checked bag fees
and gasoline surcharges.
Here to discuss this trend, once again, is travel writer Judy Grimes.
Hi! Just kidding, I don't say "hi" like that, I say "hi" like this: Hi. Just kidding, that was a little bit normaler than I normally say it. Hi; that's how I say it, that's how I say it. Just kidding, just kidding.
Now,
Judy, last time you were here you let your nerves get the best of you, and I have to say, you still seem pretty nervous. Are you sure you're ready to do this?
Okay, great.
Now Judy,
What do you think about the airlines charging $50 for checked bags?
I mean, is there a way a person can travel without spending a fortune?
Um, actually there's a few ways. Just kidding, there's only one way. Just kidding, I don't know how many ways there are. Just kidding, I do; there's eight. Just kidding, there's eighteen; I counted them. Just kidding, my friend did, and she never lies.
Just kidding, she lied once, but I wasn't there. Just kidding we're not really friends; we work together. Just kidding, I work by myself.
Just kidding, I work out by myself. Just kidding, I don't work out because I got kicked out of my gym. Just kidding, it closed. Just kidding, just kidding, just kidding.
Um, Judy, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say, maybe you're still a little too nervous.
Mm-mm, just kidding.
Okay, well you can always come back another time.
I'm fine, I'm fine. Besides, I can't come back another time because I'm too busy. Just kidding, I'm not busy. Just kidding, I am, but I can make time for you. Just kidding, I don't know how to make time, but I know how to make pies. Just kidding, I don't. Just kidding, I do
and I'll make one right now.
Just kidding, I can't because I don't have a pan. Just kidding, I do, but I forgot to buy sugar. Just kidding, I have what I need but I don't have a stove. Just kidding, there's a stove under here; It's hot; ouch. Just kidding, there's no stove under here, but there's one at my house; let's go there right now. Just kidding, we can't all go together because it's too hard to travel in a group. Just kidding, we can't go because my car's not big enough. Just kidding, it is—this whole studio's my car. Beep, beep! Get out of my way!
Just kidding, we're not in my car; I wrecked my car. I ran into a tree, just kidding it was a bush. Just kidding, it was a man; he was very upset.
Just kidding, he laughed. Just kidding, he died. Just kidding, it was a dream. Just kidding, it wasn't a dream; it was a movie I rented. Just kidding, I bought it, but now I regret it because it wasn't very good. Just kidding, it was okay. Just kidding, just kidding, just kidding.
Well, thank you, once again, thanks for nothing, Judy.
My name's not Judy; it's Nudy. Just kidding, that's dumb. Just kidding, it's smart. Just kidding, it's not really anything,
but just for the record, my names actually Trudy and you've always said it wrong, but I've never said anything. Just kidding, I did but nobody listened. Just kidding, they did. Just kidding, just kidding, just kidding.
Judy Grimes, everybody
Judy Grimes!
