Because it's DL. Nothing more needs to be said about that.

I love having all my clients on Spring Break this week. My e-mail volume is next to nothing.

Now if I could just find the inspiration to get work done today. This is really awful. I am not feeling the inspiration to do anything productive.

I'm being transferred to the "manual award desk". For some reason, they are having trouble ticketing EWR-MSP-ANC-JNU-PSG-WRG-KTN-SEA-ATL-EWR. :D

don't take her to Egypt. Take her to the Orkneys!

We did Egypt this past December and had a decent time. Food issues - hard to find good local cuisine - but otherwise the diving and Luxor were both wonderful.

This summer will be Shetland and Orkney Isles with Yellow Knife in the fall/winter.

Good way to burn those SkyMiles. Did you actually find availability at the "low" mileage option? Every time I try to use my miles on DL these days, everything offered is at one of the higher levels.

Can't say I'm looking forward to flying DL in a couple of weeks as a non-status peon. But, my partner has a job interview in DC, and I'm flying up to meet him there for the weekend. I needed to get on the same flight home with him, and the company he's interviewing with booked him on DL, so DL it is. Fortunately DCA-ATL is pretty short and the MD-80 is tolerable, provided they don't screw up my seat assignments like DL did on multiple flights last year.

Yep. Android Market has a TripIt application available. I've installed it, but haven't tried using it yet.

Here's my random prediction: CO will start to charge for all alcohol in the PC as UA does.

Riding mower or push mower? If the latter, get a nice 5 HP one for under $200 and do the annual maintenance - will easily last a decade.

Push mower, but I was thinking that the maintenance would be more costly in the long run. I don't really have anything concrete to base that on except for having one as a kid that was a pain to deal with.

Paper company up another 5.26% so far today. Going to sell another 200 shares.

I did find everything at the "low" mileage level, but Alaska in mid-April isn't exactly prime season. :)

I got so close to getting it all booked with this agent and now she is getting an error at the last step. Investigating now...

I've kinda had this suspicion for a while. I'm really hoping that, if they're going to make such a change, they do it before August so I can figure out if I want to renew my Priority Pass or not.

Nah - essentially oil, filter, spark plug, and checking the blade if you run over too many rocks / roots per year.
