It's 11:20am in OHare and I'm here with Sam Adams' cardboard cut-out, sipping his hard work, chasing my breakfast, picking up where Starbucks left off. But really, I'm avoiding the tired, unenthusiastic bodies nesting at my gate, with their dilapidated muzzles, with their deadpan expressions, with these head-and-shoulders of malcontent- of brewing disappointment- floating morosely above their respective boarding passes, passports, and food court receipts clutched in cranky knuckles. And so here I am, sitting at Facade, raising a second glass with cardboard Adams, and I kinda have to **** and I really have to *** but there's no way in hell I'm joining the rest of my flight.
