However, I am unable to leave quite yet and have more w:rolleyes:rk to do.

And yet, all I really feel like doing is posting in the Box. It's nerd catharsis.

That reminds me that I need to invite Starwood Lurker to the mini-Box Do in Austin next weekend.

IIRC the A333 in F is definitely the way to go and is much better than the seat in the A343, correct?

The 333 has the suite-like F seats, whereas the 343 has the "traditional" lie-flat F seats that are more seat-like than suite-like.

With my job, I'm working whether I'm in the office or at home (e.g. grading while at Box Bowl).

I will testify that as the Super Bowl played on the TV and all of us were getting properly polluted, this guy was in fact over at the side of the room grading papers on his laptop. :rolleyes:

Sounds good to me. I think that I have four or five already booked. ^

And of course there was the job of consuming said meats which I did to the best of my ability.

I have been forced into rasing money for JA. I am looking for people to sponsor my bowling team.

If any of the boxians would care to donate that would be great and matched by Key Bank.

Please PM me if interested.
Pictures of me bowling will be provided to the people donating.

I'd like to retract my previous rant against UPS. My package arrived a few minutes ago.

I think your rant should stand for the voiceless masses that they and all the other parcel carriers screw over on a daily basis. :-:

I've currently below 2,500 on both OneWorld USA and UA.

I have three digits on both OneWorld USA and SkyTeam USA (cleaned both out last year and haven't needed/wanted/been able to afford to fly either since).

I have 6K and change on UA, which is kind of annoying. Not sure where that's going to go.

Yup - you're never *actually* done with work. And anything I might call "free time" is really just "procrastination time" until my dissertation is finished, I guess. It'll be nice to sleep with a clear conscience again someday. :rolleyes:

^ I've got two stays planned...time to knock out more of that qualification this month! Alas, I have a 3-day weekend in two weeks and it will be spent in Boston...in a 3rd-party-booked Crowne Plaza...on a tour with my choir.

Good afternoon Box. Had the offical full time discussion at work today. Fingers crossed.
