The internets can be a very powerful tool to create a constructive dialogue with customers and vendors.

I have to give CO and SPG credit on this front. They are very thorough, consistent, and deliberate in their messaging and communication.

Here's an example of a fail
.

You should read some of the :rolleyes: that crops up in the JetBlue forum from employees there. It is awful. At least that guy understands punctuation and basic sentence structure.

In other news, Beer is Good. So is footie. And popcorn. And free WiFi so I can "work" while consuming the other three. :D :cool:

What's wrong with that? You got to fly over three states twice in the same day.

Oh wait. You flew DL. And connected through ATL. That's what's wrong with it.

Come to think of it, if I still carried cash and generated change I would make it a point to not circulate pennies.

The US really should do away with pennies like many other countries have done. Same for $1 paper notes. I'd be totally fine with the smallest paper note being $5, and $1 and 50¢ coins being widely circulated instead. Heck, a $2 coin would make sense too.

Colpuck and I had a great breakfast that included two free drinks (domestic beer, mimosa, or bloody mary) for $12.95 at the bar on the corner near FT Lurker's place.

Preaching to the choir - I have my desk drawer of Andrew Jackson dollars for a reason.

Plants need love too.

Speaking of erect, Monday I posted on Facebook about my first trip through a TSA nudie-scope at BWI. A friend of mine replied back that next time I should make sure I'm aroused for the scan. :rolleyes:

Just got my summer pay figure - net effect is more than doubling the salary for the summer (as I get paid year-round). Add that to the Wyndham / BD miles I got this morning and the UA credit for Sunday's :rolleyes: I received last night and this seems to be a decent day.

Time to go home, mow the lawn, do some yardwork and PT, etc.

They had them running at CLT yesterday morning but I skipped through and used the regular metal detector instead. No one wanted to see me without clothes. :-:

I left my work laptop on EDT (since everyone I work with is in NJ/PA) and it's really messing with my head. I feel like every morning/afternoon is an hour longer.
