Merry Christmas everyone.

I am suffering from FT withdrawal. I have had the shakes for several days now since FT and personal laptop were banned at work :eek:

In other news, my flight friday shows full in econony and 49 out of 50 in BF. :rolleyes:

I was nicely surprised by my Mesaba Saab ride this afternoon. Delays aside, the interior was in great shape, despite the fact that the Saab in question was ten years old. I wish Colgan Air's Saabs were in such good shape.

Good night all. I am beat!

I have to wake up at 6 again to be at work for 7.

I have to keep everyone safe. :)

Driving over two hours to go 65 miles is way :rolleyes: worthy. Seinfeld missed the boat about which NYC highways to lampoon. The Belt Parkway is way worse than the Van Wyck. You don't beat the Belt, it's only a question of how bad the Belt beats you. :rolleyes:

I've always had good experiences with Mesaba's Saabs. I flew them a lot from GRR-DTW (that just reminded me that I'm missing a bunch of flights on my FM - I'll have to dig those up).

Merry Christmas to me, Merry Christmas to me, haha...this morning's flight home from FLL got upgauged from 738 to 752, and there's enough open in F to use my ghetto upgrades. Now all they have to do is open the podium - we got here way too early, though I won't admit it to the fiancee.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Thrilling Festivus, and Positive Non-Denominational Winter Holiday Period to all of my fellow Box Denizens.

Oops, almost forgot: Morning, Box!

Same here! Pancakes are-a-griddlin'.

Advice of the day: Don't throw out anything important with all the gift wrap.:)

Since when is moving from the 16/20 seats of a 738 to the 16 seats of a 752 an increase in the number of F seats? ;)

Merry Christmas to all of the Box members! ^ I hope you enjoy the time with your friends and families.

They say the first step to recovery is admitting your an addict.

Scott6067: "Good Morning Box, I am an addict"

Box: "Welcome Scott6067"

Scott6067: "Thank You, I am an addict, so much so that I lowered myself to dialup from my parents house to get on FlyerTalk!"

Box: "Oh the Horror, how did you ever cope?"

Scott6067: "Remembered my last flight on a Chatauqua CRJ and I felt much better."

Happy Holidays to all.

I have encouraged drinking within the family for the holidays. Parents flew me in to make dinner last night. Had wine with dinner and dessert wine. Brother had beer that he brought. Oh and the dessert was fruit soaked in Amaretto! We were so happy that we had to miss church!

Merry Christmas, Box. I have searched the back and front yards, but Santa appears to have misplaced my Yak-42. :D

Merry Christmas,

Also a happy Festivus. Shall we begin the airing of grievances?

Mackieman Dec 25, 2008 7:44 am

Merry Christmas from a wet and cool PHX. It started raining last night and is forecast to continue right until we leave for Texas tomorrow morning. The good news? We're getting out of PHX. ^ The bad news? We'll be in the rain for the next three days as the storm moves across the southwest. :td:

Err, you mean we don't do that in the Box every day already? :confused:

Is it bad that I view Christmas as a great day to go into the office and get some maintenance work done on my clients' networks without anyone around to get in my way or users around to complain that I'm messing with their internet browsing?? :o

And dial-up??? Who knew such a thing still existed. I'd have probably gone to the mobile version on my BB instead.

Merry Christmas All!

My in-laws gave me a NeatReceipts for Mac scanner. ^
