Mayday!

Topic

Quick! It’s an emergency! You just got an urgent call about a family emergency and had to rush to the airport with barely time to grab your wallet and your passport. But now, you’re stuck at the airport with nothing to read. What do you do??
And, no, you did NOT have time to grab your bookbag, or the book next to your bed. You were . . . grocery shopping when you got the call and have nothing with you but your wallet and your passport (which you fortuitously brought with you in case they asked for ID in the ethnic food aisle). This is hypothetical, remember….

This is oh so simple. I'd either buy a book at the gift shop, or I'd pick up an abandoned newspaper. Of course, there's always the option of asking someone working at one of the desks if they could help. They might lend me a book or have something around I could read.
