Almost as last minute as being at the airport to head to one destination, getting a call from the boss, and changing to fly to another destination.

jetBlue could get me there if I was willing to wake up in 5 hours to leave for the airport. But they couldn't get me home. :(

No Big Easy this weekend after all.

Try and see if you can find the number for the local rental car office. Last summer, I got severely delayed going into SGF. I was able to dig out the phone number for the National counter at the airport, and the guy stayed an hour past closing to get me my keys. Might've been my ExElite status, might've just been Southern hospitality.

Worth a shot.

Am trying that now!@:-)

ETA: No luck -- they said that if it was an extra 10 -15 min. -- they would keep the counter open -- otherwise I am SOL! Grrr!

I will be in PDX -- on my way to STL!;) So, sorry -- INP!:rolleyes:

Not sure who is actually injured (I think sdm1130), but I'm in tip-top shape for the most part. Consider those get well vibes redirected in the correct direction, even if I don't really know where that is. ;)

Yep, our HS is ranked #1 in the state & is one of the top 100 public HSs in the country!^

Back in my day, my high school was in the top 10 nationwide public or private. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Yeah, that was me with the busted up foot. It's getting there... Still a little sore to walk on, but I'm at least getting around OK now. Thanks Tinkerer!
