Have I shared with the Box my college dream job? I wanted to be the guy who picked the music for movie soundtracks. Not a composer actually making music, but the guy who picked other band's music for the movie.

I still have a desire to do it, especially when I watch things like The Departed and they use Baby Blue by Badfinger. A huge grin comes across my face and I'm happy.

That is a cool job. One of the reasons I watch the really stupid show Skins (I'm way too old to watch that trash) is because of the music choices they make on the orignal broadcast. There is some great stuff there including some great blues.

I can still earn enough miles on ~$2K of Q-UP spend (assuming 55K+ doubling kicks in) for pure-miles F roundtrips to Zones 1, 2, and whatever Zone S. America is (for JJ, once they join *A). Half that for Cash+mi. Seems like a reasonable discount off the usual cost of flying in the F cabin.

Curse. I thought he was Canadian.

I should have said Rick Moranis.

It is still a great program , hopefully with these changes they can keep it running.

Why do people travel with their cookware?

I want to fly one of those so bad. SATA Regional in the Azores is the only remaning commercial operator. It's possible to catch a SATA A310 from BOS (and sometimes PVD) to get there. Talk about some cool FM Lines!

Completely agree. The value is phenomenal is you stick to redeeming J. I don't foresee redeeming much LH F in the future. The *A F cabins on my list at present are NH, OZ, TK (New 773ERs wet-leased from Jet Airways), LX & (soon) JJ.

Very true. I was researching aircraft for purchase and found this one to be pretty cool. Too bad it never really became all that popular, as it seemed to be ahead of its time.

In case they need to make tea.
