So, when picking up my car at Avis the other day, I noticed on the manifest it had a comment along the lines of "Max 2 class upgrade". Anybody have any insight as to why that may be there?

Don't they just refer to everything zero related as "love"? Points, games, sets.

Doh! I forgot to book my hotel for the AUS DO and the group rate is gone.

Upstate snow report: Pffffffbt. Maybe an inch, if that. Roads are nice and clear.

Canuck's father called her this morning and said he was jealous of what was going on downstate.

Are ya'll going through winter withdrawals or something up there?

Well, to be clear, he lived and incredibly hard life, did not take care of himself, and smoked like a chimney. It is very sad indeed, but I dunno that it wasn't so unexpected.

I got a great rate down at the Marriott Austin South; my wife and I are staying down there Friday night so we don't have to go so far after the reception and trip to Flying Saucer.

The deep freeze has been incredibly :rolleyes: this year but I think we've only had about 10-11" inches of snow all year and before today's dusting, you could see the grass. Definitely haven't had any play time in the snow.:(

:rolleyes: move of the day, I was informed a shipment arrived for me at home and I left work in a hurry and forgot my portable HD which I need to finish something at home. I have to trek back out in the snow. I will be stopping at Dunking though.
