Bring your lap top and come chat on AB :)
Taking a train instead of a plane.
Well the first time it happened, I just wandered the airport. It was a major international one in Atlanta. The second time, I had a book with me and read it.
You could always read a book. Here's one I read some time ago. I do not recommend reading the thing, it was awful, but if you're looking for a little excitement to stop the boredom at an airport....

yell random names, and then watch to see who responds =)
shopping at the gift stores. reading a book, working crosswords
Count how many people you can catch picking their nose.
If you drink, a bit of alcohol can help the time seem less tedious, and I enjoy looking round the perfume shop and trying out different fragrances. I also like to listen to music and chat to chums on the phone, if the time of day allows.
I go to where the shops are and brouse.Maybe buy a magazine or get something to eat or drink at the lounge.They have TVs in there to watch as well.
the internet
Shoot spitballs at people! Try not to get arrested for accusations of terrorism though.
Watch the people and try to pick out the spies, criminals, and under cover law enforcers.
Hard drinking!
Join the mile high club
Imagine people walking by in their undies!! =D but BEWARE!!! some images are stuck in your head forever!! =O
Can't be done.
Bring a book with you just in case. I bring magazines and books with me in my carry on so I have something to pass the time.
Watch the people
Yell any of the following things:
"BOMB!!!"
"FIRE!!!"
"RUN!!!"
"HE'S GOT A GUN!!"-Followed by pointing at a stranger and running.
"EVERYBODY BE COOL THIS IS A ROBBERY!"
or whisper a random flight number into a person's ear and then disappear into the crowd.
All guaranteed to relieve boredom =)
tell the air line stewardess, you got a extra ticket !
