LAX
AIRPORT
ARRIVALS
For
an
airport
called
LAX,
the
security
is
surprisingly
tight
.
You
are
hounded
by
beagles
and
made
to
unpack
your
bags
all
over
the
floor
because
you
are
suspected
of
attempting
to
smuggle
a
banana
into
California
.
As
you
are
passing
through
immigration
an
official
asks
you
how
much
money
you
are
bringing
into
LA
.
"
About
three
hundred
dollars
."
you
say
.
"
How
long
are
you
staying
?"
She
asks
.
"
About
two
weeks
."
"
You
got
credit
cards
?"
"Erm...yeah."
"
You'll
need
'
em
.
Have
a
nice
day
sir
."
She
snaps,
waving
you
through
into
the
arrivals
area
.
A
disembodied
voice
says
, "
It
is
not
required
to
give
money
to
solicitors."

"

that
phrase
has
been
in
my
head
for
18
years
,
no
idea
why
it
stuck
really
.
