As of now, I'm the only one in the front cabin on next Tuesday's MCO-PTY... That's going to feel weird.

I love these random ads. LH is in the box. Are they taking a shot at CO's BF?

Yep, I thought you knew, I got them free, ipod touch.

I thought you were so anti-Apple that you wouldn't even use the free stuff.

In a first for me... At a bar in CLT earlier today, done with lunch and half-way through a pre-departure beverage.. ~30-25mins before boarding the ERJ. Phone rings.. Unfamiliar number.

"Hello?"
"Oh hi! This is Debbie at gate A:rolleyes: here in CLT. We were wondering if you're going to be joining us today for the flight to EWR? We're pretty much done boarding and just wanted to let you know so you could head on down..."

Wow. That's some service. Shockingly good, might I say.

Haha. I personally don't have any shots of the Devils' jet just yet...I've seen it in its parking spot over there, but I live too far from EWR to justify driving up for a shot, especially considering that they almost always get back to EWR at about 1am. All but two teams that I know of are fans of ancient charters...there's a Flickr set from a ramp guy in Calgary, and he shoots the NHL team planes when they land up there to play the Flames. You've never seen so many 737-100/200 and 727-200's in your life. Only the Dallas Stars and the Detroit Red Wings have anything differing from that: they both have 752's. SuperG1955 can tell you stories about when the Devils used to fly CO (flyCOtoseeNJD?) and walk thru the concourse.

(If I couldn't have made post #46,000, it's at least cool that I got referenced in it. :))

I wonder how NW is doing with their subfleet of 319s in VIP configuration for the NBA. Perhaps it is worth expanding the programs to more pro and college teams?

Unless something has changed recently, the Red Wings share a DC-9 (N682RW) with the Tigers.

So I am realizing that my G1 is not that hot for use with corporate email. Should I go Blackberry (my hosted exchange service supports it) or one of the fun other HTC phones that support direct push?

Getting work e-mail is overrated.

That's almost as bad as Michael Waltrip Racing's corporate CR2 (which they elected to fly from NC to CA, with the requisite stop).

Sign number 462 you need to see an orthopedic specialist: when walking up stairs the person next to you looks at you aghast and says "I hope you're making popcorn."

:o:eek::rolleyes:

This is the first time in recent memory that the Box has been dead for more than an hour in the evening.

It's b/c we're all watching the Cavs game :)

And a few of the Denizens are closing down some pub in Holland.
