Sonic's burgers are good, and their breakfast burrito options are worth trying.

I'm in the mood to fly somewhere in the next few days (with the exception of Sat - Sun due to a gig and the Futbol game). Any unpublished MR's on anyone's radar?? Headed to PHX with Ms. GadFly on 2/14 but I could use some "me" time on the road.....not traveling for work is really wearing on me.

And, anyone who knows me, knows that I am a CO girl through and through and so wouldn't make a post like that unless it was tongue in cheek.

Defensiveness off.

No need to defend yourself at all.

I don't consider Ruby Tuesday a fast food chain. Just a restaurant chain that focuses on Burgers. Fuddruckers I only had once and it was at DCA Airport...It was decent...

My wife is a fan of the cherry limeade chiller. It's usually bought between 2-4 pm.

Sorry to hear about your fiasco, belynch. That really sucks. But it's a good reminder for all of us to keep an eye on our junk.
One agent was on the phone with the support desk today for 4 hours. Supervisors finally over-rode the system and did a improper rebook. UGH! And people say CO is the only one with long hold times for customers!
