Anyone have any lost luggage they want me to look for while I'm here? 
Actually it's just like any department store inside...

At yeast wheat all agree on that — right?
Not to sound crusty; but I would never lunch buns as bad as those...I never realized that Delta Air Lines offered service and operated flights between Concourse C and Concourse D.
Did you earn SkyMiles for that flight?
I am on a roll here...

I do not mean to slice into them; but I believe they knead to sow their wild oats before attempting that rye sense of half-baked humor — otherwise, they sound corny.

Although maybe they could offer a transfer service in a CRJ as an alternative to the Porsche

When I was at Maxwell AFB for one of the fun schools I've attended there, they were actually offering bus trips there through MWR (Morale, Welfare, and Recreation).
Hmm, I do have a 3 segment trip coming up next week: IAH-ATL-JFK-ATH. I could play this game if I wanted too. I'm not sure how much lounge time we'll have on the connections, but I'm excited to visit another (new to me) Centurion lounge at IAH.

My best friend's wife got an Op-Up on JFK-ORD today. Non-status, returning from their honeymoon. He got left in the back.
Update: in less-fun news, it looks like they're stuck due to weather in ORD. Their flight was initially delayed due to MX problems, but is now WX. Now they've left the gate, but had to return because a new mechanical problem (issue with the door not sealing right, Endeavor CRJ9). Flight is probably going to CX because of it. I told him to push hard for a hotel, since this is definitely not weather at this point.

Ha, I thought I was the only one who went running in the tunnels of ATL and then showered in the SkyClub. I usually manage to refresh just fine with a beer rather than a Gatorade. More seriously, if they were to put sports drinks in the SC, I'd expect it to be PowerAde based on Delta's affiliation with their cross-town neighbors Coke.

TSA agent at MKE spent about 5 minutes looking at my passport and boarding pass, and even made me take my ballcap off. I wonder if I look suspicious.

Today's catalog of events (so far):
-Flying PHL-ATL-BTR, downgraded on PHL-ATL due to IRROPS. $500 in compensation. Used an RUC to upgrade.
-PHL-ATL flight now delayed because the cockpit door is missing safety stickers. They're making temporary ones, but must receive FAA approval to use them. Not making this up.
-Likely to miss ATL-BTR flight, so got backup confirmed on the next flight.
Update:
DL's flight display boards at the end of PHL D aren't working/are displaying wrong information. It's a cluster.
