At least you didn't win "Most Embarrassing Photo" award from the BRU DO. :D

Olton Hall has a photo of me standing next to sfogate where it is quite clear that I am just a pile of a man. My wife thought it was, "cute." :rolleyes:

True, but mine's the most proximal, the third is hard to notice, and I wouldn't count Larry as thinning ... Besides, I've long declared that I'm not going to "keep hope alive" with the dome - when the top goes completely, the rest gets shaved.

Good catch, icurhere2. Welcome back to our den of Seinfeldian nothingness.

Thanks for the welcome back - I so hope to be able to fly CO more but will have to see what they can do with *A in BNA. An alliance with a total of two mainline flights a day and no lounge at my home airport makes for a long day.

I did not, repeat not, engage in the watching of High School Musical 3*. :eek: I was either using my iPod or reading the copy of Shutterbug that sbm12 brought onboard, and that's when I wasn't turning around watching the feats of drunken engineering.







* - Vanessa Hudgins or whatever her name is is quite hot. Can't blame a guy for looking.

Thanks for all the pictures and links. I only can put names to some of the faces but everybody gets to NY sooner or later. See some of you on Sunday evening.

I know - I was referring to the mini-mid at the bottom (earliest postings) of the blog. Had to comment on the lead-in, though ...

That image is towards the bottom of the page on the www.continentaldo.com page, and it was a major feat of engineering genius. I'll admit that I actually cheated to do it. The empties were just not stable enough so I actually weighted the bottom three with some of my ginger ale to get them solid enough to function as a base for the tower. I couldn't have been too drunk; I was still able to remember some of my engineering background. ;)

I actually commented that the mini-mid was fairly weak to some Box residents - back in my day, we built full-size beer-amids. A drinking contest that also involved a "who can avoid going to the head the longest" contest at what was then ranked the number 4 party school in the nation by Playboy ... ;)

Is Fozz trying to control his embarrassment or laughter there in the background? Great shot! :D

Do you get UA Express with an F cabin?

I was wondering the same.. Who could blame him! :)

I can confirm that Fozz was an accessory to :rolleyes: that evening.

No - Trans States with ERJ 145s, Mesa / Skywest with CR2s. :td::(:mad: (add other negative emoticon here). My CO flights are ERJ-145s to IAH or EWR (no CLE). And I'm not the smallest of characters.

Learn to love :rolleyes: - The Box's (mis)use of it has been elevated to an art form.
