What a nightmare.

I'm often tempted, in mockery of my fellow flyers who upon landing make those "Yeah, hey, we just landed, I'll call you when I'm in my car," calls to pull out my cell phone, tap some buttons and say, "Yeah, hey, we just landed, I'm gonna take a piss, I'll call you from the bathroom. All right, buddy."

Then, at the urinal, "Yeah, me again. I'm in the bathroom at the airport. I'll call you when I get my bags. All right, buddy."

You can use your cell phone but you have to pay to go to the bathroom?
