Maybe....

It's probably good they took their medication. No telling what would have happened if they didn't!

Apparently I was wrong.:rolleyes: I googled again. They're rolling out whole house :rolleyes:n-demand calling it AnyRoom. :rolleyes:

Too add to my non-kettleness, I had to satisfy my ego at the end of the year and figure out if all of my air travel was non-reward and all on CO it would have been a small 38,857 EQMs.

Were they elite? How did they get elite seats all together?

Ahem.

Seriously, when we stay at posh places and the valet guys shake their heads at all the cra, er luggage on the cart and the size of the trunk, I have to show them the correct order to make it all fit.

Stangely when I went to the lav a few hours into the flight no one was in the 8DEF. I figured on went to my old row, another when across the aisle from that, but where was the third person?:eek:

Just joking.

I can just see him now....wandering the gate area not knowing what to do or where to stand anymore. No longer needing his pda to check on a potential upgrade or watch the GA play games with the names. Having to actually pay attention to his seat assignment and get hit out of the way by the rushing Elites boarding first. Worrying about getting his roller board in the overhead above his seat or worse: having it be checked. Discoverying that he is out of drink vouchers. Looking lustfully at the emergency exit row knowing that it is just out of reach.

:D:D:D

I've now thrown ATL in the ring of places I have applied for jobs. Hopefully the job gods will start treating me a lot better than the bump gods have. :(

Must...get...out..of California...

I counted 3 people boarding during Elite Access. The Kettles got the seats because they were Special Need. Being that the flight only had 52 people on it (left a bunch behind because of a bunch of WX's) anyone could have picked a "blue" seat if they really wanted.

When I talk to people about my simple TUL-IAH-SEA-LAS-SEA-IAH-NRT-IAH-SEA-IAH-TUL and I am given weird looks I bring up J Edwards trip and they dont think I am so strange anymore.

BTW, has anyone seen SSullivan lately?

No, was thinking about him when we were discussing ALoft.
