"The angel next arranged that Gat 5, where George was waiting, become more fragrant, more peaceful, altogether more pleasant than any other gate. Soon all the seats were full except for the one next to George, which looked alternately rickety, torn, and covered with sticky soda until the angel sat down there. It glanced over George's shoulder. He was reading a sword and sorcery pulp novel with a sexy princess on the cover...

"The angel wasn't sure how this next part would work. Although It often took human form in the course of Its duties. It had never seduced anyone before. After a little digging through George's mind, It found what It was looking for and began to hum a tune.
"It took a few bars for George's neck to go stiff and his cheeks to turn red and another few before he spoke to the angel. "Is that 'Summertime'?" he asked gruffly.
"It sure is," the angel said, loosing an amber-hued laugh. "Not exactly right for this weather, I guess. Betcha all this snow is what got me started on wishful thinking."
"My mother used to sing me to sleep with that song," he said...

For we humans, I think we all have a little bit of both good and bad in us; however, when I met the Angel of Delta Terminal, I was instantly enthralled...
An angel is assigned to airports to help ensure that flyers are safe and to hopefully meet any special needs... In these days, we probably need to "call 10,000 angels" to prevent today's type of criminal actions! Still, it was fun to see what the angel did do to help...
But it started to get funny fast as it was easy to see that this angel had been around and was quick to make decisions about the one blessing each day she was to give. For instance, she briefly considered a young woman, but when she failed to wash her hands after using the bathroom...she was bypassed! Then there was the pilot who the "angel admired in a not entirely asexual way..."
Choosing just one was very time consuming as you can imagine--she never "peeked into their minds..." enjoying a little mystery as she decided...LOL
All in all she was happy most of the hours she worked. But then one day a heavenly entity entered the terminal. Everybody wondered who he was because he didn't even remove his shoes! Of course, even if they had glanced in his direction, they would have immediately forgotten!
Ok, I know that I've probably given away more than I should about this story, but, hey, my formal review has already been posted for the Weird Tales Magazine, Issue 361, in which this story appears...
Soooo, I took the liberty of moving this one into my adult blog and sharing with my readers that, even angels, are known to act, ahhhh, what you might call, irrationally once in a while???
Actually, I'm not quite sure that the big boss up in the sky was quite as upset as was Saint Christopher, as her immediate supervisor... And, me, I just loved this story!
P.S. If you can't figure out what happened when she found out she was leaving, ahhhh, you probably shouldn't be reading an adult blog!!! LOL..............................................................................
