I swear, the Price LeBlanc auto dealer group of southeastern Louisiana has the most annoying TV ads, dahling. And they run them in Baton Rouge at least twice on every commercial break.

It depends. If the alternate arrangements don't fit your work schedule, then no voucher is worth p!ssing off a client or your employer. And I'll almost never take a bump when I've got a confirmed F seat if the alternate flight is in Y. Now, a bump from a flight in Y to a new flight in F, with a voucher, and my schedule really is flexible, and we've got a deal.

I'm assuming your mother didn't have an upgrade and didn't have work issues though.

Ah, yes, I have seen a couple of those before when working up there a few years ago.

I'm thinking she missed the news. There's a Chick-Fil-A in Woodbridge Center, about 20 minutes south of EWR. And it's been there for at least the last 15 years.

The only thing I miss about not having my daily commute and waiting for the traffic report is the Brad Benson Hyundai radio ads.

There's also one about 20 minutes east of PHL that is a somewhat convenient hop-off from Route 42. Clements Bridge Road, just past Deptford Mall.

My father bought there recently, and he made it clear to me that Benson's sales guys (at least those he dealt with) aren't just tools, but whole Home Depot aisles.

Wow. There's three sides to every story and I'm sure we're not seeing two of them in that account.

No PO that wants to keep his job will arrest you for failing to show a license. They can (and often do) verify your identity using your name and DOB. If you're not in the system, there are alternate ways of doing this.

This guy sounds like a first class douche but he certainly made a point. I wonder what the resolution of his case(s) were. I, personally, rule in favor of :rolleyes:.

To ssullivan or any other IAHers. Where do you buy your tortillas from? I want to dabble and make a home made burrito. I saw them for sale at Kroger. Is there any place/brand you can recommend?

Just about any place that makes them fresh on site will be better than the ones that are factory produced. I used to get them at either HEB (the ones that have an in-house tortilla maker) or Central Market.
