The system is suppose to seat you in a like seat unless you're in a non-existed seat, on the new plane and then you get what's ever left over...

An object lesson indeed on why you should always select rows 1 thru 4 if you have the chance.

Aw, you just named three of my favorite foods!:D

On AF, the FA's would be making an announcement every three minutes to remind you to keep your seatbelts unfastened ...

That's a minor miracle in Philly given their fuel situation that I won't stop harping on until it's remedied. If the RCC's can get WiFi, PHL can get a pumping system.

Olives can be good, capers in certain cases, but a pickle is yuck always.

ONly time I eat pickle is in tarter sauce, with plenty onion! Hrm got to thinking, spanish olives also horrible, it is is green and pickles possibly with the exception of jalopenos, it isn't good. I prefer fresh jalapeno but can stand a good pickled jalapeno.

Actually, you'll see LAX-DEN and SFO-DEN along with SFO-ORD sneak up in the summer schedule.

Two years ago I had a 763 for SFO-DEN and it was swapped for a 744. Too bad it was such a short flight.

How early 1980's of him. Tell him it was only done with LaCoste shirts, you know, the shirts that cost more than Polo.

I don't think the collar being up will help in my "snob test" that I do with RL shirts. Boston is still the king of the snob test. The snob test is that you get better service wearing a shirt with the guy ridding the pony. Works most places in the US including a Red Robins' in Kalamazoo, MI.

Pickles, olives. Yummy. I know who I can get them from at restaurants now. Strangely I like the black olives you can stick on your fingers.

Time to leave, baby back ribs are a callin'
