Though her standard response is, "Whatever you would like."

You need a nice smoker in that back yard ASAP ;)

Yeah, but there are other things on a higher priority. Besides, most people tend to enjoy the pork loin from the grill. :)

But it is still a gas grill, over some coals or hardwood, it would be even better, not saying in any way it is not ^^ already though.

9 empty seats in F this afternoon. I think that's a record.

I think that the record likely belongs to a flight that we took about 9 years ago when CO was experimenting with a route LGA-FLL. We were the only pax in first on a 73 with 4 rows.

The other time was on another CO 73 on the Saturday afternoon of the Derby EWR-SDF, probably in 2002. It was strictly a positioning flight to take the horse crowd home that evening or the next morning and we were the only pax in first. I do not remember how many in FC were empty but this fllight had a total of seven pax, five in coach and only the two of us in first. It would have been 10 or 14.

Interestingly enough, that Florida flight I mentioned in the first paragraph was almost full in coach.

I found out that there have been parking garage shenanigans happening at the garage that we use for valet storage and revenue self-parking. Someone is comping people that shouldn't. This has led to the carpark attendant denying exit to valets that don't have their access pass on them...while driving guest cars for return to the front door. I guess someone forgot to take their common sense pill today.

That's why I bring my own food on board when in whY.

I was seated next to a Hassidic last summer flying between IAH and EWR. I busted out my football sized baked potato loaded with pork and cheese (:o) and he said "don't you know, CO serves food. Even in coach."

I smiled, said "I don't know if it's food..." and dove into my pork-o-tato.

Sure enough the cart comes down the aisle loaded with not-dogs. I almost converted the Hasid. :D

LOL

I'm making a sinfully large london broil (for one) - marinated in balsamic vinigerette dressing. Leftovers will be plentiful.

I'm still grateful for the 1700 mile buffer zone between us.:p:D

Sounds like you in the clear!!


UGH, I am really starting to hate ATT!!! I have cell service with them and today was my install date on home DSL. When I call in there system recognizes my number and sends me to the central states reps vs the TN reps. after getting transfered back and forth and having them discount 2 times, I find out my DSL is active but that my modem is somehow not working now. So have to call the central state people as the TN people are unable to warranty an ATT modem bought from ATT in OK!! Gotta love a national company that isnt national!! Seems like the essense of cingular is coming back here!!

I may haz a good shot at bagging MMer by the end of 2011. Should have 850K by the end of this year, on already booked flights. Goal set. :-:

When I have gas at work and the wind is blowing down the street in the correct direction, I refer to said gas as the Rodney Square Smell Improvement Project.

Montreal Seasoning and a coat of butter or margarine on top is the holy grail of london broils.
