Really? Well, certainly I don't mean to offend you or anyone else; but, I'm not sure what it is about the use of the $ sign instead of the S is offensive? And, I'm not sure what M$ relates to either.
Sorry to be ignorant. But, maybe you could explain to me and then I will have a better understanding.

Aha. Asked and answered, it seems. I have never tried it, nor do I know anyone else (besides him and his boys) who does it, but apparently it's a fun outdoor activity that's an alternative to organized sports and
right - that as well. My outdoor skills definitely need a lot of work. I wasn't raised on this aspect of American family life (basically, to my mother, "roughing it" = a Holiday Inn 
) so I have much remedial learning to do.
WOW.
It's an extremely sketchy tale nonetheless, but I am very very glad that you were reunited with it, at the least.
Whew! ^ Very nice. CO/Chase actually didn't tell me last night WHAT my credit limit on the OnePass Plus card when they approved me was. Very curious.
Thanks for explaining. I had absolutely NO idea what M$ was, either. Maybe I have been living under a rock...
Neither have I. A couple of flickers, but that's it. I believe we may have a generator for part of the campus.
There WAS a power outage amongst several dorms and other buildings one night a couple months ago, though. Not my house. Thank goodness.
Now, having gotten home after a long and intense day (vocal cords are pretty much toast), do I find the inner strength to get off the couch and go to the gym and get 30-45 min of biking (off-day cardio) in?? Or do I get work done and collapse?

I then looked up Lennie and Squiggy, so now I get that reference (in principle; have never watched an episode of this show in my life).
I still don't get whence her use of the term comes.

DL has been great as far as upgrades and the snack basket go but using miles is another . I got lucky in that I was able to scoop up 250k miles for $550 which gave me enough for the V Australia tickets and 1 low J reward to Europe if one exists. If not it will turn into $1000 in AMEX gift cards.

It is also head and shoulders above both of those options as far as costs go. Easily double. While I really enjoy a Five Guys burger I always feel as if I got ripped off when 2 meals cost about the same as two decent meals at a local restaurant.

I just found out that rich relatives of mine have a DL corporate account the forgot about, and they just checked it to find it loaded with 5.1 MILLION FREAKING SKYPESOS.
They sold the business that accumulated those miles, and now they get to keep them for personal use. I am trying to get them to share the love, even if it means I have to fly in the wings of satan.

AF conveniently happens to be the easiest redemption option to/from CDG. I even could have gotten the A380 for two if icurhere2 SO got back to me quicker on committing to France. As it is, I have the 330, 340, and 777 on AF.
