Oh, see - I was the one who wanted to be the next John Williams, and compose and conduct my own epic film scores. :)

I would just love to meet him. I've had to settle for things like This

I sang in a concert with him a few summers ago - it was a big mass occasion with the Cleveland Orchestra and all kinds of film/Olympic hits. He was very nice, actually!

Not good. Was the paper on a notepad? If so take a pencil and do the spy thing and get the message!

One of the many things I love about the Presidents Clubs is the high-quality toilet paper they have available.

Does that count as the Poop of the Day?

I'm more worried about the posts that do get made from AMS.

We aren't, this is a slow weekend in the tube so a lively stream of pictures from AMS would be great!

It is the full moon! We had the same kinda day here at work as well!

I will say that my day started nicely when I got the following email from my Aunt:

"If you happen to be out on the flyertalk or wherever you look for great rates or mistakes………..let me know, I am looking to make another flight before the deadline to cash in on the miles……..how many more would I need?

Belize is real cheap……..$170 RT first weekend in June but only 956 I believe round trip"

We are headed to AMS for Memorial Day weekend and she wants to do another run during the DEQMs to get at least Gold. She has sent me 6 or 7 emails about this so I have done my job to bring another one to the CO MR Group! Now if I can get her on FT so she can find her on deals!

Does it have enough built-in memory?

Why does it feel like a Friday?

I had a first. I got of a phone call with a head hunter and I don't feel soiled.

I actually went dumpster diving in the paper recyclables for my building and found the paper I "cleaned up" earlier in the week. Good thing it was just paper and not real trash or I'd have been screwed. But I did find it and now know where and when we are supposed to be showing up for the second sedar. As an added bonus, I get to actually drink a full compliment at this one since I will not be driving back home at the end of the night.

Well done!

I have very disturbing memories from middle school of kids frantically searching through cafeteria trash cans to find their retainers which they had put on their trays and then dumped into the garbage... UGH.

Looks like the moms flight to PVG tomorrow will not have the AVOD.
I think there is only 1 777 in service that has not been retrofitted and she gets it :rolleyes:

J.Edward Apr 9, 2009 2:19 pm

Made it onto 58; sitting next to a few FTers in J (and a few others in Y :eek: ) and looking forward to a good flight over.

Night box.

Xyzzy Apr 9, 2009 2:21 pm

On C:rolleyes:58 now ... it's gonna be fun!
