BOI (Boise Airport)

My home airport is one of my favorites! They've got free wireless Internet, sponsored by the Idaho Business Review! Jiminy! I love eating at the Maui Taco in the Terminal Food Court. The shrimp tacos are incredible. It makes me feel like I'm on a beach in Hawaii (all lathered up with sunscreen) instead of in Idaho! Not that I don't love Idaho! But it can get pretty claustrophobic in a state where everyone knows you, and they're all watching your every move. Not that I have anything to hide. But sometimes we all feel like being anonymous, don't we? Maybe taking a few minutes to read the paper, watch TV, or go to the bathroom without being hounded by constituents, or reporters from the Idaho Statesman? Is that so much to ask? In any case, when you finish your shrimp taco, you might be just like me and need to use the facilities. In that case, I recommend the middle stall, on Thursdays between 4 and 6. Just knock three times. Oh, and don't forget the White Pines Travel Mart on Concourse B! They have adorable pine cone magnets that my wife loves.

LARRY'S BOTTOM LINE

"The FAA abbreviation for the Boise Airport is spot-on, because BOI is this is a terrific airport! And BOI are the bathrooms clean! I wish my life was filled with BOIs."
