No, more of a poop fetish... The foot thing is just from stepping in it.:D

Hmm - the new DL/NW FA uniforms are pretty nice. A big ^ to both of the red dresses - 1 2 - quite classy IMO.

I get to experience them in about an hour on my way home from YYC via MSP.

With the Double/Triple EQM I could probably hit Uno K

There is an "I hate Rick Steves" thread in TravelBuzz that is absolutely priceless. Dunno how I missed that one for so long. Sorry for the lack of link. Am too lazy to click back.

And yeah, life as a 1K is probably pretty sweet most of the time, with nice green grass. But vividly green grass is usually achieved by using an inordinate amount of fertilizer.

Always heard it as- the grass is always greener on the other side but it's because it's over the septic tank

I try not to document the things that are that embarrassing. Plus, it turns out that it isn't too horrible; I'm pretty much on to a good tan now, though the first hours did hurt.

Great pictures Seth. Everytime I look at your pictures it makes me want to buy a nice camera.

You need a good eye, too. But the camera certainly helps.

I hear *A has the opportunity for mileage upgrades, but I wonder if they're the craptastic buy full Y nonsense that is in SkyTeam.

Yeah. And it requires that the carrier choose to participate; United doesn't.

Any of the NYCers know a good place to get a gyro in the East high 30's/low 40's? This thing tonight might just be cocktails, and I want to have a solid but quick and easy crapfood choice.

There's a place across the street from the Palm that looks pretty good. Figure 46th & 2nd, I think. Never been in, but it looks decent while I'm enjoying a steak across the way.

Thanks to all re the photos. :D

There's many who wear option 1 very well; I haven't seen option 2 yet.

Have yet to be on a DL flight where a FA was wearing it.

Most of my ATL-DCA / ATL-BWI (and vice versa) have had one in red this year.

Why not DAL?

Although my decision well pre-dated Plax's incident, I made the choice to be more proactive against accidental discharge. Given that I bowl with many in law enforcement, there's a strong S&W / Glock divide. Fortunately, my agency will provide either to our law enforcement, in compact, M&P, standard, and in 9 or 40.

The new "random" TSA checks at the gate are a joke. On my outbound flight from CLE last week they looked directly at me when they arrived and did not count at all. Looks like I am back to the post-9/11 world when I was ALWAYS picked for the "random" checks. Ahhh life at 6'4" 300#s....
:rolleyes:

Try being 6'2", 220, and multi-racial. In France, I knew before I got to the airport that I was getting their version of SSSS.
