BUF has a bunch of Timmy's (He played for the Sabres actually), but I think week old donuts won't cut it. I'm now in BOS, so if I can get down there, I will. Need to come up with some new MR strategies on US.... or a new airline if they buy/merge with AA. Put me down as maybe.

Re AA strategies, how long do you have? (But not from me.)

That's why I'm using MM as my enforcer.

Alphaguy, you're a "maybe."

I'll probably show up, my divorce will be final that afternoon and I've resolved to get out more, DO new things and meet new people post divorce. I'm not sure what my backup plan is if AA's program gets slashed in the near future, I could use opinions from people who stuck with UA.

Been there, done that. Whatever you need. Shoulder to cry on. Table to dance on. Booze. Other. (Well, we do have our standards, at least for the first half hour.) Anyway, you won't find a better welcome.

I'm going to try. I'll see if my boss will let me out early on the 22nd. Shes on jury duty so i wont know until Monday at the earliest. Its possible I may be slightly late. My best bet is the 4:25 bus from Worcester arriving at South station at around 5:30

You'll be fine, then. It doesn't normally pick up until Firewind has had a couple of glasses of firewater, anyway.

I am wondering why I am not on the list, but anyway, I will have to ask a few questions about compensation when I see you guys next.

I don't know if I can get a car in time on 10/22 so does anyone know the best way to this by bus? I'm from Portsmouth, NH and C&J is right here but I only know of it going to Logan.

Definitely cheaper than Amtrak, but would you be able to get yourself to an MBTA station, and take the Commuter rail? Or, I suppose you could go all the way to Logan airport on the bus, and then just take the blue line back to the Kinsale. I think the blue line stops at the Government Center station across the street, but if not definitely stops at the Bowdoin station on the next block over from the Kinsale.

I'm from NH so can't really get to an MBTA station. But I'm guessing if i take the bus down and back + using the blue line I'm looking at 50$. hmmm
