Ugh.

Agreed. I'd like to get more time in non-bulkhead F. CO seems to know I'm tall: most of my EUAs clear into row 1.

What is even more funny is that they are telling me I shouldn't fly if I feel security is such a farce, etc.

I have a limited degree of faith in the intelligence community, but once TSA learns what's going on, all bets are off since they will royally screw it up.

I have limited faith in the intel as well, but once the TSA, CONGRESS, or most any state official gets it. We are more than gone.

I have a lot of faith in certain intel agencies sticking their nose in foreign govts they shouldn't belong as well, sadly...(and I am not talking about Iran and Iraq's of the world here)

Interesting idea....chocolates get so big when you start packing them in your carry on and that is the main luggage you have...and I find See's to be not that good, AND overpriced.

If I take chocolates, I prefer the individual godiva bars or similar. I like See's, but don't think it's the best stuff in the world. If we fly on a holiday, BL JR decorates bags and fills with some goodies; I feel if we're spending a holiday together, (and more importantly, they're spending a holiday with us) there's nothing wrong with a little appreciation. We include little notes in each one. It's not that these cost much money, it's more the time spent doing it, and it's a fun project for us to do together. BL JR also likes to draw pictures for whatever FA we have and writes them a little note (that I'm sure they can't read). I'm amazed how touched some FAs are by it, because it's not really a Van Gogh :o, but maybe it's her enthusiasm.

I know. And it's not like I don't get to NYC 3-4 times/year. Need to schedule a Micro Do next trip up there… and drag my other half to it.

They aren't smart enough to learn what's going on.

Are you sure it isn't Axe? Should you be concerned? Probably not as it's sounds like teenage boy being dorky time (think they are being cool)

Probably Axe, believing the commercials, since it would be false advertising to have a false as you know...

A guy just announced, very loudly on the phone, that he would be first off the flight.. Because he was in FIRST. About 80 percent of the people in the area looked at him and :rolleyes:.

It was beautiful. My day is redeemed. :D

UA?

One mom (of one of two frosh girls) wanted to make sure that I - 'parent' -- was indeed home!^ I really can't blame her -- two many 'unsupervised' parties go on -- in this town!:rolleyes:

So am I, but for different reasons! Yours sounds much more fun ;)

Have fun! I'll be at my (gulp) 25th reunion, followed by a fun filled five dayer in Branson (which I am sure will be sans high speed internet :rolleyes: ).

He uses the Axe shower gel, but the body spray was in his room!:rolleyes: I'm also concerned as there were 3 frosh girls (w/the 3 soph boys) -- I'm just puzzled, as the boys have lots of female friends who are sophs!:confused:
