Good Morning Everyone!!


Third Day of this strep s*it and I am really hating it, especially waking up and having to rehydrate the throat. I think after class I am going to head back over to the clinic I went to and have them check on things to make sure there is some progress being made in my throat, because it does not feel all that much better and my throat area on my neck is still very tender!

Hope everyone flying has great flights and many drinks for free! For those of you grounded like myself, lets all have a drink for each having to be home!!

I went over and showed my support of the promo as it is way better than anything HH ever comes up with.

Attempt #2 at getting E+ seats (at the gate): Fail

:rolleyes:

Maybe all of the CO General Members took them.

I was successful getting E+ using the BD card and commenting UA seems to prefer CO's *A Golds over other *A Golds (staffer was expecting a UA/CO merger)

I liked HHonors a lot (a decade ago).

I find it striking that the McDonalds I am in right now has nicer decor than the AUS PClub.

I think I'm going to walk back to the shop where my truck is getting an oil change; they have Sportscenter. :-:

I'm happy with it... I mean, they could just not give us anything.

I only wish it started April 15 since I have three different stays before May 1 :(

I hear ya!^ Given that anecdotal evidence shows that the economy is slowly improving -- the promos are going to be less enticing than they were a a year ago. For me, I generally do w/end stays anyway -- so this promo would work for me for fall redemption.

I can see how this doesn't work for you, right now!:(
I wonder why they didn't want to start the promo sooner -- given that Hyatt's promo has been running since the end of March!:rolleyes:
