So it seems that there is a sense of entitlement over at UA.

Ok, making her Box debut, the award winning LOLbaby.

Need to save its non-Box debut for a better UGS thread over in the UA forums.

Ice cream, roast pork, and some of the most amazing fresh ethnic shopping...as in the Italian booth with premise-made fra diavolo sauce. Definitely worth a few hours.

I will send you a pm if I need it. I was not planning on bringing my computer, but I read that UA has inflight internet and I just happen to have a few promo codes @:-)

A much more even second period with the Flyers doing a bit of the finishing that the Devs have not been able to do.

Boucher has been there for every shot. Any other goalie from the Phlyers plethora of personnel at the position this season and this is a runaway game for Jersey.

That I know for sure but it's just one point bracket. I know Hilton sucks for suite upgrades but that didn't change with the bracket-creep. I still think having a fridge and microwave in the room, as many Hilton properties do, is quite a cost saving way to go. The free b'fasts and evening beverages in many properties are more important to me than a huge room. When I stayed at the Marriott on my last trip I paid the higher rate and got exactly 500 AA miles!

Would there be much of a better way to spend an afternoon? I cannot think of many. :)

I agree. But for many, a tangible reward for loyalty is a suite every so often. I would not log enough stays or nights for SPG Plat, and I'm also going out of my way to not use my Hilton AmEx right now, so my plans to switch are on hold.

You know that frequently a playoff series turns into a goaltending competition but I have seen lots of Brian Boucher at his best, which can be very, very good, and I do not think that he will be able to sustain it for the entire series.

There is a good pub that has an entrance across from the Reading market which used to be called Ben Franklin's brew pub although the name recently changed. They have microbrew beer and frequently have bands. There are two entrances and the other is either off Broad or Market and it's a short walk from the Hampton Inn.

If you see a good opportunity to deploy her, feel free to hotlink - the image is hosted on my own server.

Currently watching beisbol. Cardinals / Astros on the deuce.

25 nights a year is pretty easy to come by, me thinks.

I'll be dropping the non-UGS baby in plenty of CO/UA merger threads. :-:

Yeah, but not this year or next. I've been making extremely good headway against debt, and with getting married and talk of house shopping, hotel hopping isn't high on the list.
