Sorry I’ve been gone for a while; was doing guest relations work for AnimÈ Weekend Atlanta. Which was great fun and the masses of teenagers did not irritate me, except when they wore “Know Your Roots” shirts with pictures of Nintendo controllers. I came perilously close to giving a few imperious lectures about how anyone born after 1988 has no right whatsoever to wear such a shirt.

But right now I’m more interested in drawing y’all’s attention to the September edition of The Ticket, a monthly online newsletter for people who fly in and out of Hartsfield-Jackson a lot. The bad news: Delta. The good news: Concourse C, long known as The Concourse For The Trash That Fly AirTran, is getting its first renovation in 24 years.

(Full disclosure: I fly AirTran — or as a friend of mine once called it, “the Greyhound of the skies” — every chance I get.)
