Hey,
grouse, does that make you a "kept flyer?"
As Western Airlines' old motto used to run, "The ONLY way to fly!" Anyone else remember good ol' "Wally Bird?"
(Those were the days before Delta "ate" Western, AA "ate" AirCal- and Reno Air and TWA- and USAir consumed PSA. We had cheap fares then - I remember $13.95 SFO - LAX fares...)

On the bright side, I didn't have to pay a single penny (the tax was paid for by someone else too).
