Rained some here in Nacogdoches earlier. Wish it had lasted longer though.

Know your pain. Did it while in college working on PhD. Not fun!!

I will have my first flight in/out of DAL. I've never flown in or out of HOU.

I have done both on SWA and CA outta DAL. Did HOU in 1997!!

LOL, I did the IAH-EfD-IAH instead of HOU due to a converance at the UH Hilton.

Looks like flight number 1,000 for me will happen on Monday, August 9. Route will be DCA-IAH. It could happen a little sooner, depending on if I take any connecting flights on work trips between now and then, or on the very slim chance I book a personal trip.

Awesome milestone coming!!

I had resolved this year not to overcommit myself, yet it is 1:45 am and I am working. :rolleyes:

Watching a few episodes of the World's Strictest Parents. WOW, these kids are wacked!!

My average is only 741. I have hundreds of flights that are shorter than 500 miles. Hopefully it will creep up a few miles this year now that my weekly work flights are just over 1,200 miles each way. But I'd have to do major amounts of long-haul flying to really make a dent in my average flight length.
