This really deserves its own post, but in the interest of keeping the forum free from clutter I will do it here...

ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY ZIPPER ANOTHER TIME!!!!!!!

Why, you ask? WHY? WHY?

I'll tell you why! Because thezipper and his eagle eyes just happened to notice that I'm coming back from MSP via EWR on September 3. September 3. Does that date ring a bell for anyone? It sure does me. Evidently it does for NW as well because they were nice enough to release a standard business award seat on

And I am ON IT! In your FACE DC-10!
