I'm starting to drag, here. Need to have a conference call in 30 minutes and start drinking beer. Then dinner. Then collapse into a heap on the bed, hopefully not to be disturbed for 8-10 hours.

But definitely beer before that.

The Wii Fitters among us will appreciate this: on the Beginner ski slalom course, I just laid down a 22.88 for my top time. All the stars aligned, as my previous record was around 24.15. :eek:

I have relocated to the AC at LAX. I board in about 45 min. for my short flight to LAS. Given that it is a Sunday and that there was a fight last night, I anticipate not getting into my room for several hours after I arrive.

I thought you were just doing a MR to FRA?

I am forever amused by the ads in the AC for Lasorda wine (yes, including a picture of Tommy Lasorda). Somehow, I don't believe it truly is the "fine Italian wine" that the ad indicates it is.

Just when I thought I'd seen it all. Will that wine help me lose weight as well.

Nope....not a MR at all. I'm actually here for a work meeting tomorrow and flying home on the late flight tomorrow night. I actually think my fare is non-earning. :(

But if the sales job goes well I'll be happy to take the payout in actual cash versus the miles.

I started building a work bench this morning.

I'm leaving now for a second trip to Lowes. :rolleyes:

ConciergeMike May 2, 2010 10:25 am

Time to make lunch and shower, get dressed, etc.

IMO it is essentially a town that is quiet Monday-Saturday as well.

It's like a mullet sans-"party in the back". There really isn't much to do in FRA, but the airport tour is always fun depending on what planes are there.

Cmike, you're not going to win that fight. First they drag you down to their level, then they beat you with their experience.
