Night, Box. Hopefully the dog has fallen back to sleep...managed to rattle him by not getting undressed in a sufficiently stealthy fashion.

The selection of postcards is random so you may need to go through a few times to find yourself.

I put the money in the Roth IRA and get upgraded to F from the cheap Y seats now

Don't know - in the past, there would be problems with embedding some. Test:

Not surprising one bit. As a younger 1K who will have traveled a boatload of miles by year end (on my company's dime of course) on the gammut of airlines and alliances, the worst treatment I get (not on DL or a Skyteam carrier) is being talked down to by 1 and 2p's.

Most of the time I keep cool, but I've run into some real d0uches at IAD who needed their pedestal kicked out from underneath them.

Cr%p. Client has just thrown another pre-Christmas TATL at me. By the time I get back to IAH from CGK and PER, it'll be the 17th. Looks like I'll end the year with 235k EQM's.

Why? He congratulated me on all the good compliments and awarded me a special service pin to be worn on my uniform, and also 2 fee-waived passes for F/BF. Ms. LukeSkywaiter is appreciative as well, for the latter...
Fantastic^ (You should have put the passes in Ms. LukeSkywaiter's stocking)

Finally got my card and recognized you and the gate agent that did a great job boarding my last SFO flight (it was a really complicated one with elderly non-English speaking people that needed assistance).

Dear Box - Will my upgrade ever clear the waitlist?

Waitlisted EWR-DEL for the 16th about 3 months back. Not cleared till now.
Now, my favorite seat (8D) is gone.

Well we will see how it goes. I will be happy as long as it clears. I hate waiting so long for an upgrade to clear.

Not at all. Just use the "share" link they offer on your images and get the UBB code.

We already put the money away but still play the game that gets us upgraded from the cheap seats.
