Wow - thanks Mike! I'm looking forward to this! Although, my last outing was probably my worst round of golf ever. I need to get out again before the 31st or I'm going to be in trouble...

Mushrooms got more miles than me....
I hate to say it but the mushrooms we got delivered at the restaurant via CO Cargo today have flown more than me this month. They were routed PDX-IAH-DFW... and then trucked DFW-OKC-STW. Can I claim EQMS and EQPs for them?
Just a slap in the face to get a box with CO on it when I would have loved to fly today.

What restaurant (or type) do you work at?

My work here in Brazil is done. I arrived at GRU straight from the hospital about 30 min ago. Unfortunately I was 'greeted' by an unattended CO checkin desk. One to always try to make the best of things, I see this not as an inconvenience, but an opportunity to have 1 last caiprihnia.
Oh, and sorry to disappoint the PBC LLC BOD, but I'm not sure the childbearing thing is for me...doesn't that interupt the integral Box denizen activities of travel and boozing etc?

Have fun - GRU is not the best airport in which to have time to kill.

Childbirth might disrupt it some, but necessity for such can easily result from mismanagement of usual Box denizen activities.

Apparently, PhlyingRph is the self-admitted culprit. Only on FT have I seen random people's lives intersect so much, assuming he didn't make up the answer on the fly.

With an American accent, it is pronounced kai-pur-een-ah.

I've always heard it pronounced "cap-uh-reen'-yuh" though that may not be accurate at all. There's also apparently a vodka version that isn't bad.

I need to get out again before the 31st or I'm going to be in trouble...
