For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for July 09, 2013

Awww Michael! Don’t worry, my bear still goes everywhere with me. He’s thirteen and I’m fifteen. Nobody judges

Does Michael know that his suitcase will be inspected before he’s allowed on the plane? Am wondering just how sensitive the security inspectors will be when they come across the teddy in his luggage…

I see a lost suitcase when Grandma and Grandpa come to pick him up.

Don’t forget this is 40 years ago, back when you could carry a loaded, uncovered, double edge razor in the baggage and not get hassled.

I remember those days.

Yes, Michael, take him to your seat with you.

He’s a young Radar..\\//_

Aww, take him, Michael! You may not need him, but just in case…

Take him!

Yup… teddy bears are highly social creatures; they’ve been known to go feral if they suffer prolonged isolation.

ah what the hell

I have a little stuffed lady bug that goes into every suit case when I travel….for luck!!!

Aww

Put him in your carry on in case they lose your luggage.

Take him, Michael. Even if you might not need him . . . he’ll definitely need YOU!!!!! ;-)

That’s how my Teddy got lost at the Cincinnati airport. Miraculously we were reunited. Obviously, we were meant to be together and we have been for sixty years.

If no one’s told you before, your comments are visible again…Welcome back! Ever find out why?

Thanks for your comments Night Gaunt. Good to see you again.

I’m glad to be able to carry my fishing rods on and put them in the overhead.The fish have to be packed in a bag of frozen water or dry ice.I live in MA and my brother lives in CO.I pay the extra baggage fee for my fish.So it’s a good time but costs me.
