As much as I hate to admit it, Jailer is about six months younger. However he has more gray hair then I do.

Thanks for the comments and PM's.

Didn't want to ignore you for an entire decade: Happy Birthday Senior Mod Craig6z.

I took him to Durango last week, what have any of you done for 6z lately?

Hey, Craig, didn't I take you out to lunch for my birthday? I'm free today as long as you come down to Newport Beach.

Jailer,

Everyone on Flyertalk knows that it's a TOS violation to discuss Moderators.

Happy birthday Craig.

I might normally let this day go, but this is a big birthday for 6z, AKA Mod2, AKA original member. This is one of those birthdays that end in a zero and it would be nice for the virtual world to reach out to my likely despondent cousin as he laments over his wasted, dissolute life and all the people he has let down, his moral lapses and crimes committed both prosecuted and yet undiscovered. Sure, his memory is so impacted that he is struggling to recall a myriad of evil deeds, bad decisions and the resultant landscape of wreckage but even if he wasn't dementia-laden he is too physically impacted to make any meaningful amends to legions of victims and emotional zombies left in his wake. So, I just wanted to do what I can to raise his spirits--as I'm the good and kindly cousin, always focused on his wellbeing--and if everyone would chime in that life is, maybe, still worth living a little bit longer I am sure that he will be somewhat energized to the point of being helped out of bed, putting in his false teeth and spending some quality time in his rocking chair. And, don't forget the depends.

No need to thank me for the emotional support and Happy birthday buddy, J.

And yet he continues to travel with you after this trashing of his ethics and health? The mind boggles. Fortunately his ongoing work to make FlyerTalk a better place suggests more competency than this post. We'll go with the seen versus the said.

A cynic might think that I only travel with 6z for the senior discounts and as a way to angle to be a major, more appropriately primary, beneficiary. Craig just travels with me because he likes to be around young people:

Could add a number of countries to the above list and assuming that Texas counts as a country that's next month, Columbia in November.

As an aside, over the years this truth has emerged: some of the most enjoyable business trips are other peoples'.
