"Someone's going to love you for canceling a Standard Award in July."

Someone on the WN forum just asked "Do award seats ever come back available? " :-:

I'm exactly at the same situation. With my currently planned trips I'll be Silver in July, but probably won't make Gold again this year :(

Great Austin Beer Festival details in 2.0. :-:

I'm finding watching Deadliest Catch a bit difficult knowing we are real close to Capt. Phil's passing.

Plus1. Great book, too. One of the better book -> movie adaptations I've seen.

I haven't kept up with it, but I'll likely hit the marathon at the end of the season.

What made it particularly good was that the setting of the book was changed pretty dramatically in the movie without affecting the tone (unlike, say, "Fever Pitch").

Now I'm inspired to make a top 5 list of book --> movie adaptations. ;)

ETA a suitable post number given my metropolitan area of residence.

Going out to see what the new benefit is, it appears that if I fly on miles which I don't have, and held a credit card which I don't hold, then I might get upgraded after rev silvers.

More interesting is the speculation on the card name "Onepass Plus." Sources of unknown placement or reliability inside Chase indicated that it has something to do with the merger. If there were to become a meme regarding that as the Brick's new program name, I can just see the eruption on the UA board now.

Personally, I credit none of it, but do think there might be some kernel of truth to the rumor of changes in GS. As I understand it to be, it is currently constituted much like CO*, with uncertain if not arbitrary standards and benefits. Standing alongside the well constituted and quite democratic Pres. Plat., there might well be movement of the former towards the latter, even with likely a year or more remaining of separate but unequal running of the two programs. But even that could well induce movement in that seismically unstable forum.

In no particular order:

1) High Fidelity
2) The Shawshank Redemption
3) Big Trouble
4) About a Boy
5) The Lord of the Rings trilogy

Not sure if it's still in service, but UA1776 used to be ORD-PHL. UA500 was ORD-IND when there was mainline service.
