So what we're getting now looks to be the leading edge of the storm's moisture. Encouraging!

Nah - at the Monona Terrace Convention Center.

SkyTeam USA just called me about the FFDO concern - I don't think the person on the other end of the phone knew what an FFDO is (but she wouldn't ask).

Aye; it's raining at my house in Leander and it just started sprinkling a bit here at my office on Braker @ 183.

Forgot to share the news
Due to this past weekend's gayal, I'm a Grandad.
New SIL has a 6 yo from a previous encounter(where-abouts of biological mom-unknown by any parties)
I guess technically I'd be a step-grandad, same idea though

may have to post up a pic of the aisle walk

I would like to declare I am not mike_asia or the race baiting troll. If I am going to fling poo, I will sign it.

Great week here, looks like the projected high of the week will be mid 80s :D

Watch it be 110 now....because I said how nice it will be.

Gotcha. Good location to be - I've stayed at the Hilton which is adjacent to Monona Terrace - nice views of the lake, and short walk to the Capitol area, where there's some decent eats. UW campus is just a few blocks further.

Apparently, as the FAs are just falling all over him. I guess that is why I can not get a drink.

That is the one. Frank Lloyd Wright did the design for the center, IIRC, although it took a long time for Madison to get around to building it.

I so hope that fizzles out before Friday when we have to fly through it to get to PVR (based on that 5-day model).
