It has to be one of the best concerts I have ever been to and I have a totally new respect for Chris Martin. Now the reason I was able to go to the show is because the wonderful zionangel remembered, from months ago, that I mentioned wanting to go and see them. We had never even&nbsp;met before but she still offered me&nbsp;her extra ticket.&nbsp;That was so awesome of her.&nbsp;So for any of you who are going to meet up with her at Comic Con, just know,&nbsp;she is great :-). urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:tonpep1:986 2008-12-24T20:20:24Z 2008-12-24T20:20:24Z <div class='appwidget appwidget-qotd' id='LJWidget_12'> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td><div style='border: 1px solid #000; padding: 6px;'><p>Cancelled flights, missed connections, long layovers—what's the worst holiday travel story you've heard?

There was an electrical storm and they could not allow planes to take off. We could not get to a gate because they were full and then they could not get a stairway to the plane (some people demanded to be let off the plane)because lightning hit about 50ft in front of us and it was not safe. So a flight that should have gotten me home at 10:30pm got me home at 4:30am. <br />
