Some thoughts on traveling and just why did Brian decide to use Gumby as an airplane?

Does traveling energize or drain you?

Hi I'm Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.

I like to thank Gumby for playing the airplane for me.

I didn't have an airplane to use, so I used Gumby as an airplane. It works, right.

It works, it's the internet, everything works. I'm gonna put Gumby away, he's distracting.

I just got back from a trip, right. By the way, welcome back, This is Brian J. Pombo Live, I'm Brian Pombo and I just got back from a trip.

If you've seen some of the previous videos, you saw me on the road. And where I get to get to do a lot of flying, a lot of running around got to give a speech. So that was fun.

Got to hang out with some really great people and through it all, and also all the chaos that goes along with traveling right?

I missed a flight, so I had to wait a long time pay a bunch more to be able to keep going and get to where I wanted to when I wanted to and that's fine. That's all part of the fun.

It's part of the adventure, I don't mind that. I know a lot of other people though, that it completely drains their energy. For me, it's energizing.

I'll tell you my perspective first. For me, I mean just being around airports, I like the energy. I like the energy of movement of people going places doing things you got sports teams that are there were in their their jerseys and stuff and they're getting all pumped up about going somewhere, just getting back from somewhere.

You've got business people that are in business mode and doing their thing and talking on the phone, you've got people going to visit family and so on and so forth. It's just it's just it's that type of energy. I love it, I honestly do.

I'll tell you what I hate I hate the bureaucracy that has come around flying. I mean, was just this cattle car mentality. And this, you know, we know better just do what we say or will kick you off type of thing.

And you know, put your mask on and do this do that. I know there's a there's safety precautions and everything else. The one thing about the airlines though, is they're always adding on rules and never taking rules away. It's always getting tougher and tougher.

The TSA was a lot tougher at one point to get through. And that they made some concessions as far as getting through there a little faster if you're if you're flying commercial, which I was.

But besides that, yeah, that they'll that part's a pain, I can't stand that everything else about traveling I love going to the I love planning to go to the destination I like driving, I like flying.

I like riding and trains and going on boats, I just I love it all. I really do, I'm really into that. And I don't know if it was the way I was raised. Or if it's something genetic or something wrong with me, that makes me enjoy that type of thing. But I really do like it.

I know a lot of people, it drives them nuts, they hate staying in hotels, they hate being away from home. And that could be you, it may drain you of all of your energy for me, I get back home I'm on I've got more creativity flowing through me, because of traveling.

Because of getting out of out of my normal existence and going somewhere and doing something a little bit different. It gets my creative juices flowing.
