Im happy to join the crusade And while Erma Bombeck Trips like By ERMA BOMBECK always wanted to do funny book about travelling But could never think of anything funny to write about it Most trips are like death march with stopoffs at tedium exhaustion and layover at frustration Ifyou doubt it just ask yourself have you ever seen trav eller anywhere with smile on his face Every time return home from trip sit for days and ponder on the great mysteries of travel Like how come the first suitcase off the plane never belongs to anybody hve purposely run from the plane to the baggage claim area to make sure see the first piece to come rolling down the chute Minutes later 35 or 40 of them to be exact when have my luggage that first piece is still whirling around unclaimed Why is it the window seat on the plane is always occupied by someone who is sick or asleep How come when the pilot comes on over the PA and says For all of you camera buffs sitting on the right side of the airplane there is an absolutely breathtaking view of Halleys Comet passing over the Statue of Liberty am always sitting on the left side which has been enveloped in clouds since we left the airport It has always been mystery to me how the Fates know which gate to send me to When am carrying newspaper and my handbag and have two hours and half to change planes am at gate two However when am carrying my own luggage three pound novel hot rollers an extra coat and live cactus for my hostess and have 12 minutes to make connection my gate is still being built There is never choice on will your luggage get lost or not get lost The choice is always will it get lost on the way TO your vacation or on the trip home It is invariably the for mer And finally theres the Feast or Famine Law dieter will be met on the 700am flight with glass of champagne and food every 15 minutes throughout the flight and twice over each time zone while the starving person will be forced to live by macadamia nuts alone Maybe travelling was never meant to be fun experience Come to think of it Wilbur and Orville Wright rode bicycles Pollys Pointers Dryer left its mark DEAR POLLY My husband was laundering his fine cotton underwear and put it in dryer that had been used to dry rubberbacked rugs The intense heat had melted the backing so fine lumps of the backing adhered to the clothing cannot get them off because they have hardened Please let me know if there is way can correct this condition VERA DEAR VERA Yours is an unusual problem that have no pat answer for It will require bit of experi menting would first try soaking these spots in white vinegar If that does not soften them you might put the underwear back in the hot dryer and leave It jnst long enough to hopefully soften the rubber When softened use dull table knife to scrape off as much as possible and then use cleaning fluid to remove any lingering stains Wash with detergent and dry in clean dryer If any readers have had similar experience that was
