I was already pissed off as I was boarding my flight in SFO for Narita Japanā¦
I had been making the 24 hour commute (each way),DC-SFO-Narita-Taipei, for about 6 months.
Until this trip I had been able to get upgraded to Business Class. Because of all of the Soccer teams and fans, the damn planes were packed.

He then pointed at the back end of the 8ā sideboard and stated;

āIām not a bodybuilder.ā

So now Iām a body builder.
I guess my work out routine is effective.
