One of my guilty pleasures when I fly is reading the SkyMall catalogue. It's not because there's any actual shopping that I want to do, but more because I'm amazed by the range of things that other people are - apparently - willing to buy. I've always considered the target audience for SkyMall to be "OCD hypochondriacs who are really obsessed with their pets, have more money than they know what to do with and whose children hate them."

Such as: Alfie: Where are the cheese and crackers? me: You're cheese and crackers! Alfie: I'll cheese and crackers you! Then when we went to drive home, Alfie unlocked the car and let me in. I reached over and grabbed the keys off her lap and joked,...

(upon seeing the reflection of my beret-clad head in a window as I walk past) srah: My hat has a stem. I'm an acorn! Mr B------: Are you going to grow up to be a mighty oak? (sad, pensive pause) srah: No. *sniff* I think I'm a dud. Mr B------: You're going to be eaten by squirrels!...
