Wow...I was in the middle of a many post multi-quote and managed to hit the wrong button somehow and close my browser. Whoopsie.
To summarize, beer = good, I'm not bailing any of you out of jail, baglady jr. is awesome, and whoever is waiting on a bag from B&H will still probably get it tomorrow because the UPS site is notoriously bad about "billing information received" status. I know there was more but I really can't go back through 150+ posts since 5:30p EST and pick them again. Kosher steakhouses are good but way too expensive and have a limited selection of booze which is really a shame. I was "forced" to drink maker's mark tonight rather than whatever it was that I asked for after dinner. :rolleyes: |

Not to my knowledge since the last time I looked at the list there were people not on the list, myself included.
The list so far: http://flyertalk.com/forum/10814385-post17865.html Possible restaurants: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/10805914-post17679.html (we've decided Gravitas is a no go since we've had a DO there before) Any thoughts on those and I will make a reservation ASAP. One thing about Empire Cafe is that the area is very busy, but Sunday morning should be quiet, so that's a plus. |

Yesterday, I ordered my new camera bag from B&H. Today, I received a shipping notification around 3pm. If the bag shipped today, it would mean that the bag would arrive here tomorrow - just as B&H had estimated. Perfect! Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the package has even been picked up yet. Now, it probably won't ship until Wednesday and it will arrive here on Thursday after I have already left for EWR. :(
Hopefully I'm wrong and there is still a chance it will get picked up tonight... |

FYI - I'm planning something in the NY area for either April 4 or 11. More news in its own thread... I figured I'd give y'all a heads-up :p

Same basic other services but the tying point is the lounge access on weekends. I understand the economy situation but why mandate to your individual properties what they should do? Why let them lose their competitive advantage?

I wish the hotel biz was better represented on there. It also stinks that LinkedIn doesn't host its own groups -- I'm too lazy to follow the LI groups that have been forced to migrate to Yahoo Groups.
I bet that Marriott Newark posting for a concierge got your goat when it looked more like a security guard position instead? |

The last thing my mother said to me when dropping me off at college was to not call her when I got arrested because she wasn't going to bail me out. I understand the importance of having someone lined up to bail you out. I only resist with this group because I legitimately consider all of us a flight risk. :eek: |
