Sometime in the mid '90s, I had to work a tradeshow booth at the Long Beach Convention Center in SoCal.
I show up at zero-dark-thirty to set up all the crap. I am hung over & mentally preparing for 8 hours of utter boredom. 1/

I arrive at the front door w/ a box of magazines under my left arm, a cup of coffee in my right hand, and a 3-pound Motorola Rat Patrol cell phone on my hip that's dragging down my pants.
