The Starwood bonus points from my SPG AMEX posted today but the points for base spend did not. That's particularly odd because they usually post at the same time around the middle of the month. Has anyone else with an SPG AMEX seen this?

I know that you can order them online. I received mine as a gift when I was in college.

Sweet, I just got one for 99 cents at Amazon.

The big news story today in the Bay Area is elementary school students being caught with pot-brownies (made with Fruity Pebbles :eek:). The ironic thing is they go to Stoneman Elementary.

I hate to hear what goes on at Toadstool Jr. High and Quaalude Sr. High.

What do fruity pebbles add to any brownie? I like fruity pebbles, but . . .

Thanks! Made up for my total seating #FAIL as I somehow just kept walking to the back of the plane even though I was about 10th to board. Though that worked out too when ALB had the dual boarding bridge roll up to the back door. That was neat to see too.

?? I understand the hscroll thing, but not the "Do. Not. Want."

There is a bit of history behind the Come and Take It flag. It has nothing to do with secession or radical right wingers.

The cannon was granted to the colony of San Antonio and was then taken to Gonzales, Texas. The Mexican Army had orders to seize all cannons but the Texans at the fort successfully beat the Mexicans during the battle. After the battle a flag was fashioned with the phrase and used as a sign of defiance. Without Texas fighting for independence, there would probably be no New Mexico, Arizona, or California.
