Why are you in the ANC BR again today? Did you go somewhere and forget to post in the next AS/QX flight thread like I do?

He does this a lot...

(What is this now, 4 consecutive days?!)

I can't complain too much, since I am occasionally the beneficiary of this arrangement, but I do have to admit that it just reinforces beckoa's, er, reputation.

Five sadly...

All started with my dad's flight out on Sun... He returns tomorrow... in at 8:45 PM, but I get off work at 9 PM (might be able to leave work early...) and then get to rush over to the airport- and the BR may be closed by then (9:30 PM on Friday)...

No points for soup... and didn't eat it on mon or today since it was mushroom infused...

They did get Ranch dressing back in and also had chips today (first time this week)

So, are you starting another attempt to go for the record?

I would, but the Tapas, sangria, wine and the fact that it is almost midnight in BCN really make that just a LITTLE impossible right now.

Oh, and let us not forget the fact that they make a marvelous Caiparhina here.

I do apologize I didn't make it this time - guess you'll have to drink a couple for me then

A new record... no- just working on a take-home geology test... but got to go back to campus now...

Have fun over there

I can do that, but we really must donate a glacier to these people. Either that, or buy a couple of ice machines and get bloody rich by tomorrow afternoon!!!
