Creason Family

So, when I came back from Malawi (in Africa for those who don't know) a few years ago, my main piece of luggage was "lost" by the airline, United. Funny how it made it through Malawi, Ethiopia and Rome just fine. Then I carried it through customs in Washington DC, and United Airlines lost it here in the US... Pissed me off, I had everything in there, lots of mementos, my hiking bag, the suitcase that it was all in was borrowed and huge, which alone was $300...

Anyway, if you want the airlines to keep better track of your bag, put a gun in it. They'll be sure and take extra special care of it then... Granted, I don't know if I'd ever really do this, but I thought it was funny/interesting anyway.
