- Traveling in coach has become interesting. The seats must be shrinking in width. The leg room is certainly smaller than it once was.
- The earphones are bigger than the seats you sit in. Sticking those things in your ears can be as painful as body piercings look.
- If you travel on a day flight if the person next to the window closes the window blind, you lose the best advantage of daytime travel.
- Be careful what you ask immigrations officials about their equipment. It could slow you down.
- I learned that many Americans have a steadily decreasing vocabulary. There were many who seemed to only know four-letter words.
- I was a confirmed and fully persuaded creationist. Then I saw the baggage handlers in the Miami Airport. Now I am not so sure....
- You can't get a Dr. Pepper on the flights between South America and North America. Never mind that they advertise them as a part of their stock soft drinks. What is this world coming to?
- Americans are some of the most generous people on the face of the earth. I listened with great interest to a man tell of building schools in Latin America. It's all done as donations to the countries they build them in. I listened to others tell of their contributions to world missions.
- Americans still know how to smile in the south.
- Americans still know how to cook in the south.
- Americans still know how to eat really big meals in the south.
- Northerners don't know how to eat grits and eggs.
- Many Mississippians love Jesus. They will go anywhere to serve him.
I have two more weeks in the deep south. Then it is back to South America. Pray for a positive response to the invitation to come and help us win that continent for Jesus.
