I've used the lotion-as-defrizzer when traveling...works fairly well!

My paltry $566 in vouchers for the year will end up subsidizing the majority of our honeymoon air.

I wouldn't complain - right now, my $800 in vouchers will barely cover two BNA-WAS trips.

Do squats. I had a personal trainer years ago and I was having problems with my knees. He told me I had to build up the area around it and squats was the best way. I haven't had knee troubles since.

I resently read the same thing but I still haven't gotten around to it since I hate squats.

From my posts in teh Box, I think you know my feelings about grilled asparagus and pork chops. The rice is :rolleyes: but the rest of the meal fine.

I will eat the rice and you can have my asparagus and pork chops.;) Never developed a taste for those two items.

I'm not complaining at all. I'd rather be debt-free than I would be *G, and I'm well on my way. We will do our honeymoon in F either nonstop from EWR or from PHL via IAH with mileage upgrades for likely the price of less than one coach booking.

I'm trying to catch up fast. Must confess I've never felt drawn to any sports in the "car racing" family (yes I know that's sacrilege), but I guess I felt similarly about both tennis and golf at one point; I've fully gotten into the former, and much better on the latter.

It truly is a lot of fun. I've been to a few F1 races and I've had a blast! I am *SO* excited that F1 is coming to AUS and that we can crash at Mackieman's place ;)

On my bucket list is to go to every F1 race in the world. I have a ways to go. Can't wait for the ausF1box do.

I do it when I brush my teeth. My teeth get cleaner and I manage to get 150-250 squats in a day.

Had that at F. Scotts once and still can't appreciate Nutella.

Nutella is ok. I enjoy having an inexpensive desert now and then. Including Biscoffs at some point!!

Long before I found FT I was offered $2500 to bump 5 of us to a flight 8 hours later from HI (they called my condo to offer it). When I hesitated they offered at least some of us upgrades on one of the legs. Honestly I couldn't think of what to do with my luggage since we had to check out so I said no but 30 seconds after hanging up I realized "rental car you idiot it has a trunk". Called back immediately and it was to late. :mad:

After my attitude was to say yes immediately (and process the details later) so a year later when it was to hot in Denver to take off on a full plane with everyone already seated I was with the kids in the first row of coach (with carry-on only) we were denied because we didn't weigh enough even though our hands were up first. I have mixed feelings about that problem;)

Start with a chair underneath you. Pretend you're sitting in the chair - just when you are about to sit down, go up. Do squats against the wall - this will help you get your alignment correct. I've found a combination of plies and squats works well.

I know!!! But it's a good use of time. On the rare occasions I blow dry my hair, I do squats as well. I am an a+ multitasker ;)
