Ugly, but not uncomfortable. The free wi-fi gets a big ^ from me.

Why no Mexican and seafood? In much of Mexico seafood is far more traditional than other meats.

And this food blows away anything at Abuelos. Not that Abuelos is bad, because it's generally pretty good, but I think it's far from the Mexican food mecca they, and many of their die-hard fans, make it out to be. And yes, the hot salsa at this place is equivalent in spice to the mild at Abuelos.

You don't piss me off, I just cut my fares and join you.

The first car I bought was used as well, 2001 Chevy Impala. It has been a great car and is now paid off!

I would have walked before driving a car from the 1970s. My first car, which really wasn't mine, was my mother's 1984 Ford station wagon, and I thought that was ridiculously old at the time — and it was only about six years old when I first drove it. I'm such a gadget freak and techie type I always want the latest and greatest; now my 2005 Accord is starting to feel a little old, even though it's just over three years old now and still has just under 27,000 miles on it.

I actually have not called them since about early March. Our flights are in pretty good shape - right now we're just on 2 different ICN-LAX flights that leave within 4 hours of one another.

The only other options I see on KVS right now are 2 seats on BKK-NRT(NW)-ATL(DL)-EWR(DL) but the BKK-NRT flight leaves at 5am. :rolleyes: I still have hopes that KE will come through with another reward seat on one of our ICN-LAX flights!

You can always book the KUL-ICN-JFK-YYZ special it is still available and force yourself on the same flight :D

That means SAN is on IFR and operations occur from runway 9 instead of 27. Taking off on 9 is a good time since they have a somewhat higher angle of attack on ascent.

Yes it has been awful. But at least today temps are getting closer to normal, and by tomorrow it's supposed to really cool off.

PSU you should be doing better in the US, I shipped a bunch of ATRs to Asia and Europe over the last several days.

Tempting... ;)

It would also force us to go back to Asia within the next year to use the return of our reward...

2 of them followed our ERJ out to the runway on Monday evening - that was very cool!
