How many fish did you have before?

Not totally sure... the babies are black when they hatch, so they are really hard to see until they get bigger and turn gold. I'd say we had about 16 in the fall.

Maybe the stupid heron is your pet & you're just feeding him.:D

Mazel Tov!! ^^

Thanks!

FWIW, on my last ORD-NRT flight, we got the ding, "Seatbelts please" in English from the captain, and repeated in Japanese by the FA. That was it. YMMV.

I think it's time to start a new thread.

It's not my call, and I don't think Acura was considered. If you're talking about the ZDX, that wouldn't have made the cut, as we were told that anything that could possibly be referred to as a "truck" (crossover, SUV, even the Porsche Cayenne) would not be considered. In addition, the point is for comfortable guest entry and exit...so anything with a rakish C-pillar would not work.

Are crossbows legal in Ohio? Should you end up on the bench some week, park an arrow in that heron. Let that be a lesson.

And more importantly, will that cancellation cost me a flat bed 752 or 772?

Good Day, Box.

Okay, so with the Wyndham promo, I booked a mattress run in San Ysidro, CA (one mile from Tiajana border) during my recent visit to SAN. So I get to the hotel, and at checkin, they write on the room folio:

My credit card number
Drivers license number and exp date
My DOB

I asked them why they were writing all that, and that I wasn't comfortable having the info just out there for anyone to see. The desk clerk told me this was the hotel policy, that in case the charge didn't clear or was disputed, they have the info. Well, I really just wanted to EFFing miles, so I let it go, against my better judgment.

Guess what's next?????????? yup, you got it. Fraudent charges on my CO Chase card.

I've cancelled the card and the charges are being removed, but mutha-fluker, I'm p!ssed! My own d@mned fault, I guess. Shoulda walked away.

Question to all of you: Can more ID theft happen with my DOB and DL # that was harvested? What should I do???

BTW, I've called the hotel and left a message for the GM to call me back; we'll see if he does. For all I know, he's the ring leader.

The only other place I used this particular card was at Von's to buy a couple of yogurts... I really don't think the card number was swiped at Vons.

Not good!:(:eek: So sorry to hear that! :( You may want to consider putting a 'freeze' on your credit reports -- so no new accounts can get opened up -- unbeknownst to you. I don't really know what else can happen with the info. that is out there -- but I would keep checking your credit reports, or get a monitoring subscription.
