My guess is the most of the pics are obscured by his friend Louis Vuitton.

That's beautiful: a wallet just for his EXP card, and maybe some pics of airplane seats and lavatories.

That's a great line!

Maybe you should have a word with Charles' GF before things get too serious.

What is a turbo-vet exactly? Is it like a cheap version of a turbo 'vette? Or is it an animal doctor who works very quickly?

Your misspellings not withstanding, I find it difficult to believe that you "got it going". Most dashing men-about-town who "got it going" don't spend quite so much time blathering on bulletin boards.

Pre 9/11/1958 my mother's first DL reportedly had no photo... but I'm pretty sure it did have her name on it.

Nice story, but it appears to me that the real hero here is the individual at the restaurant who found the wallet, and then took the initiative to track down Charles. It might have been appropriate for Charles to reserve some of his praise for the server and the establishment itself, by identifying both. Perhaps some of us would want to patronize an establishment, which offers such outstanding service when we find ourselves in Cambridge.

Yeah, but then it might turn into non-fiction.

This is all starting to make sense! Last night, my mom and I went to dinner in Cambridge, and we saw a young man walking down the street with a very attractive young lady. Both of them had sweatshirts with "HARVARD" emblazoned on the chest in the largest font imaginable. The gentleman was toting a Louis Vuitton bag with two AA EXP plat luggage tags dangling from both ends of the handles. The most curious thing was his face was whited out. I pointed this out to mom as we strolled, and she suggested it might be that hypopigmentation illness Michael Jackson suffers from.

In any event, always nice to see AA EXP desk go above and beyond the call.

Bwah! I really don't think my monitor was ready for coffee yet this morning.

On a serious note... has anyone been able to replicate this feat (per my challenge)?

No, but I am still waiting for you to report on your homework assignment, now several months overdue.

Hmmm...college sweatshirts, LV bags, elite luggage tags... it is move in week at Harvard. We were very much camouflaged!

P.S. Pickles I will be very impressed if you can tell me why evangelicals object to the dear Harvard reverend.

P.P.S. If you look on the back of your elite luggage tags it says "if found return to any AA location."
