I'm the guy in here who probably flies SkyTeam USA the most and CVG still rules for me. I live in the right markets and there is good mainline service for me from LGA and enough from FLL to make it one of my easiest connecting points. And as an extra added bonus, everything is in one terminal.

What is not good about them is the FF plan with its terrible international award structure and the difficult to use PMUs, not to mention the miserable, frequently useless, website.

And there now seem to be plenty of waivers and favors for DMs.

Suspenseful though - just wondering who's going to get the 10th card at the moment.

Well you just got 40,000 more last night. And I mentioned I didn't want to know how many milk runs my team could book.

You could do something fun like empty the dishwasher which I did a few minutes ago.

There also appeared to be no passive security and/or antipersonnel measures in place. If I can ever afford to become reclusive, I'm going to do it right.

I have already drank some beer, ate a whole jar of salsa and pita chips(yummy home made), and desert.

My spanish blood (about 2/3 total I think) is boiling at this point over the missed opportunities.

Everyone's now in my corner of the BNA SkyClub watching the match. Of course I have the prime seat.

Nah. Live animals doing the dirty work is too labor-intensive. I'd rock it old school...pressure pads, buried surprises, motion sensors, tripwires with noisy things attached, all that fun stuff. I will not rule out a moat, however. If Greg Brady did it, so can I.

My minor amount of Dutch is annoyed at NEDs complaining and lack of trying.
