Now that I think about it, I don't think I've had the pleasure of the cheese soup either.

Now thet we're Elite, the very possibility of receiving the cheese soup have caused us to turn the upgrade option off on our reservations.:cool:

So, pray tell, just how many A&M stickers have you had to put on the rear bumper of your Dodge to keep it from falling off...again. :eek::eek:

:D

The aggies...god bless 'em.

It's CO's revenge for all those mistake fares I've booked and LFGs I've wrangled.

Trust me, MBM3, you have not missed much.

Ha! Except the folks in Tempe are probably calling it queso dip.

Will go perfect with their Envoy class tuna burrito. :rolleyes:

Man, just typing that forces me to suppress the gag reflex.

Tuna burrito? In Envoy? Gross!

Not only does it sound bad, but why are they serving something like that in their international business class? Oh wait. It's US. Never mind. I'm surprised they don't charge Envoy customers $5 for a snack box with some chips, crackers, beef jerky, and a candy bar.

Anyway I almost had a heart attack this weekend when using our corporate travel agent's website and all it would show me were flights on US. Fortunately it turned out to be a glitch; someone had accidentally changed a setting so it was hiding all of the non-US flights. Glad they got that one fixed. I was afraid I was going to have to go job hunting if I was going to be forced to start flying US all the time.

I was on a US transcon last year and they ran out of food in F and they offered to sell me a snack box from coach. :rolleyes:

I declined. I ate dog food once when I was in college and airplane lavs aren't large enough to repeat that experiment.

Ha. Snackbox by Alpo. It's actually kinda catchy.

UA could put that on the ExPlus first class snack boxes that feature the cold pasta in a can. First couple of bites aren't too bad. But by bite 5 you're ready to run for the lav.

Won't make that mistake ever again, no matter how hungry I am.

J.Edward, I was just wondering how many UH grads are in management positions at CO? I'll preface this by saying that I bet that there aren't any Aggies there, but are there any Coogs?

The level of sarcasm that you reply to me with will determine the severity of my response...

Well, at least you did not offer me any cheese soup.

The Flu Sucks. :(

I dunno whether it's a point of pride or shame, but DL's CEO (Richard Anderson) is an alum of my current law school.

I had a severe cold over Easter weekend and I am just now getting over it. For the last couple of days everything I've done has been a haze.
