Howdy Box. :-:

Getting back into the groove for full time work now that I'm back from the great white not so north.

Highlight include snowmobiling and rolling the snowmobile (with my wife one it, too) but no injuries, thankfully. Skiing for the first time ever was a huge success. ^ Good times.

Looks like EWR-LAS is booked 18/20. We are hoping for 2 companion upgrades tonight. I wish there was a way to get them added to the upgrade list now.

Morning, Box. One six-day week coming right up. HOPEFULLY MCO this weekend if the parents finally make some plans. I sent them all sorts of flight info/prices/schedules but they have to pull the trigger.

I have 5 - 4 are earmarked for Asia and I had just been planning to try and trade the 5th for some vouchers, but I figured it was worth a try. I haven't been in CO BF in 10 years, and even though this isn't the new lie-flats, it would still be cool to check out.

Jealous. Super jealous. I have always wanted to check this place out.

Unfortunately time/train fare generally work against spontaneous trips to NYC, but can we actually plan a return visit sometime that I can put in my calendar? And I don't work until 10:50 on Wednesdays...

tjtenor4 said he had one of those over the weekend and liked it. I really want to try it but haven't seen it in stores yet...must look around.

I found it in my local liquor store. It's in a 4-pack as opposed to a 6-pack. If you like Belgian whites, this is the stuff.

Hi Box, greetings from the Crowne Plaza Shoreditch in London. Feels good to have crossed an ocean for the first time in almost 10 months. Well, I did go to South America during the holidays, but that doesn't really count as crossing an ocean. Or does it? What say teh Box?

Good morning Bx from teh Hyatt St. Louis at teh Arch.

Haven't been here since it was about half an Adams Mark a year or more ago. Now it's a Hyatt all the way.

Looking forward to SZG this weekend. How many Bxers and Bxettes are transiting EWR on Thursday?

It counts, you are near Brick Lane and the Spitafields Market. Lookout for Jack the Ripper, that is where he did his deeds :-:
