I received an awsome gift already. A friend deposited some cash in my CO.com TravelBank account. :D

Would do the same except for the potential for thunderstorms. As a result, I'm starting my Hyatt run early and visiting one of my favorite restaurants for half-price dining.

SO I went out for ice cream and they didnt have Blue Bell so I got Breyers Ice Cream. Very Disappointed in the taste. Tast like it is made from skim milk or something. No good.

I'm still not keen on the new Blue Bell commercials I've been hearing lately - just seem wrong.

I do actually stay in my rooms, eating courtesy fruit and breakfasts, cranking the AC to any level I so choose.

Sounds like the fridge here. Of course the memsahib, like baglady, is a vegematerian.

There is no replacement. Best thing about the merger is increasing my IAH transits and opportunities to get a cone of the good stuff.

That's our default - unless there's only one property in town or the prices at the others are :rolleyes:! Why not, I say...

I've got 4 phantom stays in a row next week (Th-Sun) in the DC area. I'm really gunning for Plat status for the honeymoon - plus a couple of free weekend nights to use at high-:-: properties this fall - and the rates are really good. It's a shame we can't use any of them though; tjtenor4's parents would have a heart attack if we did anything other than stay with them.

(They don't know ANYTHING about airline or hotel status or upgrades or anything like that...to them, anything other than the cheapest possible ticket or hotel - is an unnecessary and wasteful splurge. Haven't quite figured out how to break the whole "three continents in international F" thing to them before next summer.)

Apparently they make stripper poles for boats. :rolleyes:
