Of course! Don't think I would like to work for someone who wouldn't find it amusing.

On the "cleared" list for my ORD-DEN flight there is a DIC/K

On the standby list there is also a PRI/M and a very appropriate TEE/D

I'd be teed too if I was that low on the stanby list (which is currently 123 people long...

Why is it that we never see a HAP/Y way down on the standby list?

Just saw DUM/B on the list. I hope he wasn't traveling with his boss.

Or maybe he is the boss?

A couple to contribute, all from the same IAD-LAX flight last week, and all having first names beginning with "K" for some reason:

LIC/K
BEA/K
HAR/K
LEE/K

Nothing too fancy, but it was fun to hunt for them!

A few to add to last week's departure from SFO:

HON/E
FAR/E
COL/D
SOF/A
CHA/T
HER/S
POO/T
HAN/G

It gave me something to do as I was going from gate to gate trying to get on an earlier flight.

I've had an upgrade list with SMA/L on it. Probably refering to the legroom in seat 43F he was assgined later on.
