Best day at the Shell Houston Open so far. Great golf. Greg Norman made an amazing putt. Bo Van Pelt, great birdy (currently in the lead). Henrik Stenson, I think he did fine, but all I could think about was his mud shot a few weeks ago so I kept flashing to the underwear shots. Sorry, just being honest here. My new favorite golfer John Senden shot even (shortened third day because of the suspended play Thursday) through 8. Great weather, too.

I hate explaining the mechanics of anything remotely complicated flying wise to a non FTer.

You mean you found someone that was actually interested? I thoroughly enjoyed the conversations that I had with everyone in Houston due in large part to the fact that I've never had anyone else to talk to about it that either had a clue or was interested in the topic.

Really? I give them one pass.. if they miss anything, well I'm not repeating and they are out of luck. Except for Mr. F70, btw. He gets two passes.. and then he's stuck in coach. :D

Speaking of people who are interested.. I have a friend who travels *most* of the year. According to him, he is not even close to any status and has very few miles - probably due to the fare buckets his company buys. I've sent him links to the DEQM stuff.. still not a recognition or any effort to get a bump-up. I stepped out after he grunted about his non-status and didn't seem to care.

If they don't care, well.. I don't care. To each his (or her) own.

Believe it or not, I fit into my father's Corvette easier than I do a TL.

I love the TL. I would have bought one instead of the TSX except that I was doing commutes from SAN to LAX multiple times a week and decided I was better off with the higher gas mileage.

Nice. We found two in PTY as well, though we didn't visit either.

I managed to grab the last NEC train out... always a bunch of weirdos on that one.

All 4 cleared and the crew took really good care of them.

^^^^^^^

Not enough icons to express the ^ I feel about that one.

Huh? about PTY and glad you guys got the NEC. Nice to finally meet her.

FWIW, ridiculously drunk tonight. Badly. Good times with everyone at the do and to those who were at the perfect pint. But bugger, I'm drunk. Special shout out to mwg25 who showed up tonight knowing no one and did a phenomenal job fixing that problem.
