Yes, if you leave it in long enough. If you do it for less than 30 seconds, it just gets really, really big.

I checked SFO and ORD and there is nothing available on UA's 747's The s/o needs to leave on April 25 and EWR-IAD-PEK-HKG is the best I could find. I am flying OZ and meeting up with the group on May 2 ;).

Have you tried Asiana?

That's me, no car, although I do have the S.O.'s car this week as he is in L.A. It's not necessarily just the commute. With the classes I'm facilitating, it would make for very long days. Plus I need another Westin stay for one more Amazon gift cert. :D

I hear ya!^ Yay on the Amazon gift cert!:cool:

Not a football fan, here!:rolleyes:

or..... the lovely ladies of the box who aren't particularly interested in football, but are interested in imbibing, could provide general atmospheric aesthetics :p

Slivivitz is so bad that even my alcohol loving Rabbi won't serve it for Kiddish during Passover. He didn't even buy a bottle this year because he's left with 3/4th of a bottle that he has to throw away the next week.

My parents are aging some in the bottle. We didn't touch it again this year. I think I brought it down for sedar in '03. :eek:

The 1GB models are the only ones that are actually netbooks. Has to do with MS licensing restrictions that keep the OS costs low. You have to add extra RAM yourself.

I'm giving up on the Acer and switching to the Toshiba tomorrow. The battery has ~25% more mA-hours which translates directly to more usage between charges. I'm willing to give up charger commonality with the wife for that.

All Boxers would be welcome on the Fantasy Football DO. If Copa is the commissioner, I will be the Time Warden.

My live draft last year went for five hours.
