I suppose that is true, and I also suppose that is why there is beer.

I tend to have a beer every day I come home from the office, and my requirement over the summer is only officially 5 hours per week.

I just wanted to be close to EWR for the night. I guess I will stop being a cheap a$$ and pay the $18 :-:

Just think what the rest of us will be paying to park at the hourly garage for that short period of time.

I just had a lovely, slow drive down the 405 and just arrived in teh OC. Another SPG stay for me. :rolleyes:

If for work, I wouldn't mind two more SPG stays at the moment (would earn a free weekend night).

WWTBD. Sunday in July. Night time EWR-OKC flight on an ERJ (yea for wx season) or ruin the entire Sunday and part of Saturday night with the o'so early 5:30AM EWR-IAH (738) IAH-OKC (IAH) and being in OKC unnecessarily early but get the extra 500 miles? All other options too expensive including 752,762,764 EWR-IAH

I have a tough decision ahread of me. SNA (SAN) or SJC (SFO) for a weekend in Sept.

Nice weather both places at time of year. If you could do early Oct you could see the airshow in SFO:)

Do you have a commitment early on Monday? I would be reticent to mess up the weekend and understand an EWR-OKC ERJ could create oversold, WX/temperature restriction, or weight-balance issues - I took a bump off a CR2 from MEM-BNA last year due to a combination of temperature and weather.

I was in panic mode earlier thinking I had lost my cell phone. Finally found it in a pocket I don't usually place it in in my bag. The good news is that I found my Shure earbuds in the bag.^ Too bad I replaced them last week.:rolleyes:

Glad you found them. ^ I couldn't find my car/office keys a few days ago which wouldn't have been an 7:30 am crisis except the only key to my parents house (I'm on cat duty) was on that ring.:eek:

Is there any way that "The Penalty Box" could be a sub-forum on the CO forum?
-- much as mileage runs / mileage runs discussions is set up
-- or as merged airline older forums are within the newer entity forum?

I find it hard to track the CO forum for hot topics when the majority of the time The Penalty Box is showing as the current topic, due to the volume of posts. 198,000+ posts and 13,213+ pages is hard to compete with...

Something cheaper since I thought I wasn't being a responsible earbud owner.
