With apologies to Elton John



She packed my bags last night pre-flight. She packed me a pair of suspenders, cowboy boots, a chartreuse petticoat, a fedora, a whale bone corset, a parasol, a monocle, two pairs of nylons, a blazer with shoulder pads, six silk handkerchiefs, a paisley shirt, a red bow tie and three pairs of white athletic socks. Inside the silk handkerchiefs, she wrapped a silver handled knife, a stuffed unicorn and a bottle of fine cognac.  The fine gentlemen at TSA pulled me out of the security line. I think it’s gonna be a long long time.
