Quote from a friend in DC who works for the Treasury Department and lives not too far from Dupont Circle:
Looks like four casualties from the airline glass collection. Quite a mess at work, but they'll have to deal with that.
As you may have gathered from the first sentence he is an airline buff like ourselves and has travelled to places that you and I can only dream of. My postcard collection from him is amazing. As a kid we learned the poem "the Golden Road to Samarkand" never dreaming that one day I would be getting a postcard from there.
However I am glad to see his priorities are right and that only four of his glassware connection is damaged. I only hope they are not ones purloined from defunct airlines. That truly would be a tragedy! :0
