Look at my CO reward reservation this morning and two of the segments are gone. Poof. Gotta call 'em.

Better to square away sooner than later.

I will be on a boat today.

Will there be pitchers of Peroni?

Do reward upgrades have the same propensity for disappearance as reward tickets?

She'd pretty much be expected to do so. For the same reasons recognizable faces in Democrat administrations will fly coach.

IIRC (not going to look it up), what was just about the time Mitsubishi Estate took C&W in the Rock Center deal, wasn't it? Some said at the time that Mitsubishi really wanted it as much as they wanted the buildings.

Whataburger acquired. Bed imminent.

And thanks to all of you for (presumably) helping to Keep Austin Weird.

That was just around the time of the partial eclipse, which if I'd gone to MX, I would have seen. Here, though, I left it to the dogs to observe and will get their report soon.

Good thing you're not using native stone (e.g. floor marble). Run short in that and color match is often impossible. Reminds me of a saying of my father's: I've cut this board off twice and it's still too short.

Seems that measurements of that size (a double meat Whataburger and fries, or about 12 ozs of Coke) don't mean much one way or other. If you've defined the diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes that should meet your goal, then let 'er buck.

Finally, a Brahman bull, close up and not being provoked like those rodeo ones, is a very impressive, intelligent, and beautiful animal.

She turned down the short ride from the train station to the hotel. She took us up on the offer of the 25-mile ride to PHL. :rolleyes:

I've been on a weight yo-yo for 10+ years and had 150+ pounds of difference between the low and high extreme. Every pound is a milestone when they're coming off.

The story not relayed from earlier today after security concern has already been reported.

FFDO came back up to gate agent to complain and literally stated there was a problem with communication when others don't know he's an FFDO while the gate agent was actively boarding - perhaps four feet from me. A few people in the first-class / SkyPriority line actually know what an FFDO is ...

Communication issue solved. Now everyone know he was on board the flight.

Well, with a little luck, the combination of eating- and anxiety- disorders that come naturally with the approach of a wedding (and the return to school, maybe?) should kick in to assist in the final surge over the trenches of Too Heavy. ;)

A few possible responses:

A. That is indeed hilarious.
B. That's what UA gets for charging for alcohol in a club.
C. I'm enjoying my second self-serve beer already.

Good morning. The usual sucktastic Sunday AM softball game is finished; now to do the laundry and catch up on work while my wife has the kids at a movie.

Indeed. I'm looking to finally get where I've wanted to be and stay there this time around. At a touch over 6'3", I can probably eat, gym, and cardio myself to a weight somewhere in the neighborhood of a middle linebacker. Certainly not the fitness or the definition thereof, but at least in that area on paper.

I may well have been the only person to notice / comprehend. At the same time it's problematic when pilots announce they are packing (even under an acronym).

I described myself as about the dimensions of an NFL cornerback the other day - was lost on the SO who knows nothing about sports.
