    I just took the 787 to London on Saturday. Back Friday. May have to look for some compression socks before I head home.

    Dumb question here, I'm sure. But is this concern due to sitting in such a compressed/uncomfortable way or is it due to being in an airplane that long in general? On long flights I typically have my legs up or am laying down completely. Is that still a concern?

    I know, right? I don't think I could go back to coach for a long flight after experiencing the other side.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    You can get two different kinds. One is very thin and you can put a regular pair of sock over them. Then there is the Dr Scholls WORK compression socks which are thicker. I prefer the Work compression socks. Both kinds pull up over your calves.
    If you spend a lot of time on your feet they work for that as well.

    Did business class on the 17 hour flight from Dallas to Sydney. Worth every penny. No way I would do that trip in coach.
    Looking good Billy Ray!
