Nice.


Finally! My genius is noticed!

I've got to develop my rhyme scheme talents, though, if I want to TRULY impress my old English teacher. 14-line sonnets in ABABCDCDEFEFGG...here I come!
Eh, I think the curmudgeonly preachy tone of FT is much more suited to
dactylic hexameter. If you have more than 5000 posts you are permitted
a spondee substitution occasionally.


I've only ever taken Acela First, never Acela Business and never a Regional in any class. But then again, I don't live anywhere remotely near it and only take it as a novelty, not as functional transportation. I'll leave this question for others to answer.
Doesn't Acela First cost an arm and a leg? Is there some high status
that lets you upgrade for free? And also, does it get crowded on the
northeast routes?
