Well in transit to St Martin in Miami International Airport i was intercepted by an airport security officer, on account of me snapping this pic and a few others like it for a story.
I was thinking of doing a piece on airport travel in these crazy days of hyper vigilance and then before i new it, i was hyper-vigululated myself , you might say for acting suspicious with a camera.
The officer was only doing his job professionally , and i remarked upon his courtesy and efficiency. In the name of anti terrorism i suppose someone taking photos inside an airport, particularly in the US isn't going to go down too well with Homeland Security.
So now i guess i have to US government monitoring this blog, which i duely admitted to, along with name, rank and serial number.
Travels in Hyper Reality i think was a book title by Umberto Eco, bout describes our current experience of going from A to B.
We live in interesting times.
