Aloha, Box. Sorry to steal your tagline, belynch, but I'm at the Aloft IAD - what else am I supposed to say?

Yup....you do! I mentioned Grease to Ms. GadFly and she said she'd absolutely be into it.

I was able to get a reservation at Babbo for 10:15pm... Anyone been there? Worth it? A friend here in Houston recommended it so I spent an hour on the phone trying to get through.

Nice milestone! I have a bunch of those in my FM including quite a few 7's in a row (see earlier post).

My guess would be FCO and MXP, but I'm not sure.

@:-)That would make a lot of sense! I should have thought of that...

But I wonder, if its just to those two places in Italy, why continental does not denote so in their publications, like they do for 'to/from Japan only' items and a few others?

Are you going to join us for Box Bowl since your MR plans got snowed in?

And a handwritten note from the GM. Way to go. ^

Handwritten notes are a dying art form. After the first interview for this hotel thing, I came home and had (differing) handwritten notes out to both guys who interviewed me with a same-day postmark. People have stopped paying attention to detail like that, so it's a great way to set yourself apart in any setting, not just interviewing.

ChaCha is crazy busy this morning. :eek:

Doesn't look like it. Wife was going to head to Austin, so we'll probably go together.

That's cool. I'll wave when we pass on 71. ;)

Best insult of a Phlyers Phan I've ever seen.

End of the year Filthydelphia leads the league in penalty minutes and the Devils will be playing for the cup. You need to find a chat room strictly for delusional filthydelphians that believe safety orange is a tough color and penalty minutes wins games. Now run along and get a perm.

Good thing it's a weekend blizzard: Lou Lamoriello flew EWR-DCA on Thursday to escort Kovalchuk back to Jersey. That's unprecedented, as he usually meets players at the aeropuerto.

Dude, i'm sorry.

I try to keep the ERJs in the double-digits. Triple digits is just wrong.

I found a Travelodge in SFO for $40 this weekend on my overnight. (Because everyone needs to go to ICT via SFO and IAH. :)

I do find it ironic that everyone's SFO plans got canceled and now I am going.
