Those things really helped my wife as well. ^

Tripp in the IAH E club makes very delicious margaritas. He looks like he really enjoys makin' 'em too!

My sinus has been revolting as well. The weather has been most strange. It goes from warm, to overcast, to sunny skies with a cold breeze, to misting fog back to sunny skies.

I would love to spend the next 36 hours in bed. But this is my Monday so I have to be at work this evening. Good news is that we shouldn't have any weather delays unless a thunderstorm pops up in IAH or EWR in the next few hours.

Oh, I know why I haven't eaten at Elevation Burger now. They have a big sign out there talking about how their stuff is all organic, which makes me :rolleyes:. I appreciate quality as much as the next guy, but saying something is organic so you can charge more for it when someone decided it would be cool to .......ize the word, "organic" to make it mean, "does not contain extra junk so we can charge more" except that it really means, "came from a once-living organism." :rolleyes:

But I'm not bitter. ;)

Huh? :confused:

There are legal definitions for using the word organic and it's not simple marketing buzz, like for, lets say, "kobe beef." :-:

Yeah, but it still makes me :rolleyes:. Same reason I don't believe in recycling or a bunch of the other crap people are rolling around these days. I do believe in conservation and that we should not waste what we have like there is no tomorrow, but the fear mongering and whatnot are not for me.

You'd be surprised at the number of prescriptions that never get filled because of this

Well, I do intend to fill it (I know it'll only be $5 for the generic) -- as I don't want to be in a situation with another holiday weekend & a condition begging for meds!:eek: (I also like to have it -- just in case, when I'm traveling!)

Your weather report is not funny. :D

I'm all set for the Footie DO and Friday night's dinner. I got Thursday night off so that I could get a good nights sleep for my 6am departure from SFO on Friday.

I land about a half hour before you do so I'll wander around and meet you at your gate if all goes according to plan.

Boarding for LAX is late. I'm ready for my PDB!

Perfect. Can't wait until June 11. I need a mini vacation.
