Did anyone not receive their cookies that should have? I just received an email supposedly from UPS saying that a shipment on March 13th could not be delivered because it was a wrong address, but they didn't include a tracking number, and I can't look up tracking numbers that old. I don't want to open the attachment in case it's spam.

Evening Box!

Quick Question, Now that CO has merged with UA, what happens to the Chase Continental President's Card? I'm receiving it soon from Chase as I'm "supposed" to have a Chase Credit card for work. Since the card currently grants you CO Gold, will that continue or should I enjoy it while I can?

Have you moved the workbench to its final location?

Brian Williams of Nightly News fame, called the EK 777 that the Times Square bombing suspect was pulled off of, a "Jumbo Jet." Bzzzt! Try again Brian.:rolleyes:

I also believe that they were the ones calling it United Arab Emirates Airlines. :rolleyes:

Oh, and the "dramatic" audio recording from LiveATC is anything but.

Sounds like Leroy Jethro Gibbs on NCIS (currently watching new episode! do any of you watch this show?), building his boat...

Big fan, though more of the earlier seasons. :-:

It should be pointed out the airlines a long way from merging. They have only announced the intention to merge.

Until you hear otherwise from Chase, I would continue doing business as normal.

To get out to the NW 43rd area figure on more like 1:45-2:00 driving from JAX. There are three distinct speed traps along the road - all very well marked - and you will get a ticket if you are speeding. If you fly in to GNV you basically just drive due west out of the airport and then turn left at 43rd street. It would be impressive if you managed to get lost.

Thanks for the tips. Turns out that for the flights I need, especially on the return, US comes in only about $150 less, so they didn't have a problem with me taking the CO flight into JAX. They have some sort of vague rule about not having to take a connection if the direct is less than $300 more, but I've not been able to get a clear explanation of the rule.

I'll be staying at the Hilton near the University - no SPG properties in GNV.

Following that lack of research, any news stories involving UA would discuss United States Airlines.

No wonder this country is growing dumber by the day. The people that the masses look to for brain content are morons themselves.

We of course got ours but have not yet remitted payment for them. Could you let me know how much and where it goes? Gratsi. :)
