Good evening Box from the Grand Hyatt San Francisco. Grand Club food offering was a bit thin, so I walked around and decided, due to the crowds, I will order room service. Now, I'm deciding between healthy and cheeseburger.

I go to a place I've migrated to since I was 16 and it brings back so many good memories. When I was playing catch with my son (major arm building exercise) I was doing great and not even wearing Rx glasses! I think some places just give a little fountain of youth feeling:D

Sheraton. I was there all of 8-1/2 hours -- got there at 10:30 last night -- otherwise I would have sent out the :rolleyes: sign.

It is nice to know that I am not the only person who goes to Toronto for the day. Last time I spent as much time at YYZ or in transit as at my place of business. I am supposed to go again in a couple of weeks and wonder if Immigration Canada will interrogate me extensively again about my summer job in East Moosebits, Ontario in 1989 :rolleyes:

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

Congratulations on both accounts -- lovely picture.

Speaking of ice cream... I was rather confused when I saw the Edy's ice cream packaging with the name "Dreyer's" on it here in Texas. When we got home from the store, I did a quick Wikipedia search and found the following (useless) tidbit:

They used to sell Dreyer's in the hublet when I was a kid. I recall it as being awful. I think they also sold vanilla ice milk.

Cheeseburger has lettuce and tomato.@:-)

If I had passed on the diamond food/beverage amenity due to expectations at the club, I would be thinking either healthy or the burger paired with the gym.

I don't know. If he was really three times over the limit when they got to him, then he was too far gone for the extra beer to really matter. So why not at least enjoy.

Of course that kind of philosophy has lead to some pretty brutal hangovers for me, so it may not be the correct one.

Understand completely - SO was shocked when I sat through a 2 hr 40 min baseball game explaining every little detail despite my ADHD*; I did play college ball and was primarily a catcher so I view games differently than most.

* She was also shocked I could still throw a bit of heat at the radar gun before the game.

Haven't had the cheeseburger at the GH SFO but it's good when I need an $8.50 dinner at a Hyatt Place to use a second Costco cert* ;)

* Failed to replenish these at the BOI Costco as well.

Excellent point.

Worked out last night, and I don't have gym clothes. Actually, my club expectations were exceeded -- I read the property thread and had absolutely no expectation. The sushi wasn't bad, and the chicken skewers were pretty good. Given the amount of high-end shopping around this property, the eye candy in the club was exceptional (someone told me).

Either CO releases a kick-:-: fare to somewhere interesting soon, or Jeff gets a horse's head in his bed.

icurhere2 Jun 29, 2010 7:24 pm

CO has been conspicuously absent from the ridiculous fare filings lately. US may have been as well - I just repress any fare from them ...
