Flying pencils are fun! :rolleyes:

Considering I earned a couple hundred thus far in 2010, I'm still a few years away ...

My longest is 1498 miles on a CRJ-700 ORD-GEG on United.

This is sadly one time where having the most of something is not a good thing.

That being said, I did manage to have three free Bud Lights in the US lounge within an hour while watching the NCAA tournament.

You flew US - you paid for those Bud Lights.

True - I needed the alcohol to get me ready to get onto that US plane. Much like I had a couple of beers at the CLE PC before getting on the plane to CLT.

"UA" and "GEG" suggests you were probably in F, on an aircraft equipped with F ;)

If I requalify for PLT on AA, I will be lifetime GLD. :-:

Indeed. 1A made it tolerable. Still, spending 8+ hours and 3000 miles on a CRJ-700 with only one lav was not that fun.

Though between me and my college friend, we did drink that plane dry.

As an ex-TW person, I did expect to be there by now. Four years of living in a former hub (BNA) definitely hasn't helped.

Why don't you go ahead and book that first. BNA-IAH is a fairly long flight for an ERJ-only route.

LOL!! I am doing two BNA-IAH roundtrips within 2 days of each other!! And one I dont even get miles for!!

free pastry day at starbucks tomorrow.

Checking my bank statement, my visit to kroger was charged double last week. :( Not happy.

on the plus side, I have a nice stash of funds for my asia trip, and at the end of the month, nice job setting back I did...it will look even better after I get a refund. But that means delay in leaving tomorrow while I go talk to the manager :(
