FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

I'm sensing a cannonball run-esque scramble. :-:

I am astounded that I can't get a non-stop between DFW and SFO on a weekday afternoon on UA. And I'm equally astounded that CO's connections via IAH are absolutely teh suck between these two cities.

P p p p p p p please don't make me fly AAnother AAirline. I'm really not liking the one option via LAX that UA is trying to :rolleyes: down my throat.

What are your dates? There are hourly flights between DFW/IAH and DAL/IAH so I'm surprised to hear you're having issues.

If you can swing it, fly out of Love, especially if you're working nearby.

How-to-Use: For long-lasting effects fragrance should be applied to the bodys pulse points. These include the wrist, behind the ear, crease of your arm and knee, and the base of your throat. Pulse points give off more body heat as this is where blood vessels are closest to the skin, therefore continually warming and releasing your fragrance.

Love is a no-go because I'll be in Grapevine and my schedule is super tight.

I think the sticking point is more the IAH - SFO timing than anything. :rolleyes::mad: Based on a conversation I just had, I might actually fly into SJC and out of SFO on this trip. This, folks, is why I buy refundable tickets.

My wife unfortunately has gestational diabetes, so she's (and by extension me) been on a controlled-carb diet. She's formulating a list of foods I will need to bring to the hospital that she can have after the delivery. A proper bagel, chocolates, etc.

I was amazed how easy it was to give up the foods I had to (sushi, blue cheese, alcohol, etc.) but we had a bottle of champagne that we took to the hospital and which the nurses kept chilled for us. I really enjoyed that bottle:D

Yeah, I used to live and work near Grapevine and I always flew out of DFW since it was approximately five minutes away.

You could always drive your pony in your car instead.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one (though usually with me it's a change in timing and/or airline rather than a change in destination airport).

I know, getting to Toronto will be a pain, but if the clues are for the Sheraton Meadowlands Hotel & Conference Center, Sheraton Parsippany Hotel, The Westin Governor Morris Morristown, Sheraton Newark Airport Hotel, Sheraton Lincoln Harbor Hotel, The Westin Jersey City Newport, W Hoboken, Sheraton Edison Hotel Raritan Center or any on the NYC locations, I think we should all car pool. ^

A NYC location is very likely

I was actually quite pleased to find that the car I bought (new) in 2006 had both cassette and CD player (must have been one of the very last holdouts!) - because I've found that the cassette adapter for the iPod works MUCH better than the radio-station ones do, if you're not lucky enough to have a direct port.

Apparently Mrs. Mackie was given bad information: the two classes she has to take this fall are not actually offered online, though she was told they were. :rolleyes: Now I need to get in touch with the distance learning folks at the university and find out if they will allow an external dial in to their MCU so she can participate in their video conference either from her school or from home via webcam. I know it's possible, but whether or not they allow it is a different story.

This just in: I still haven't received my 2010 elite card. Or the replacement they apparently sent 4 weeks ago.

What the what. :rolleyes:

Good morning from SFO AC. It is good to be on way home. I'm actually looking forward to getting into the office.
