Sgt. Faith

To just to catch you up, I travel basically every week all over the United States. I have had to the priveledge of sharing flights with many B list celebrities, and I enjoy documenting the encounters here on my blog. Well, I have a new one on the list, her name is Sargent Faith.

This dog may actually travel more than I do. Her owner told me that she has flown 16 times since the beginning of the year, and she has 20 more trips planned including one to Iraq. She visits army hospitals to boost moral of the soldiers who have been injured during the line of duty. She really is a remarkable dog. She has no front legs. Her owner said that she was born that way, and she is the only dog to walk on her hind legs 100% of the time. Faith doesn't travel in a carrier, she has her own seat. In fact she receives frequent flyer miles. I have to admit, this might be the freakiest thing that I have ever seen. It was like a little hairy person walking down the jetway.

Brush with Greatness

I have been traveling to Atlanta for work for the past few weeks. The last two flights have been shared with celebrities. The week before, Kordell Stewart (Slash) was sitting in first class when I boarded the plane. Last night I was fortunate enough to share a security line moment with the one and only Pam Oliver of Fox Sports Broadcasting. Little did I know that sweet Pam would be sharing the flight with me to Hotlanta.






I started thinking of all the celebrities that I have traveled with over the years. I have to say, this is an impressive list. My wife and I flew from DFW to LA with Paula Abdul of American Idol fame (straight up). I also saw Mike Starr of Ed and Dumb and Dumber fame. Then there was In Living Color's Tommy Davidson. There is no doubt that the all-time celeb I have shared an airplane with would be the great Rowdy Roddy Piper.
