Is there anyone else in The Box that is aerogeeky enough to be thinking about making the trip to SEA for 787's first flight (date still TBD)?

Greetings once again from fabulous (like Mrs. Xyzzy) La$ Vega$ ... it's been quite a day -- and quite a night. The pink suit really did go over quite well. I had a good time walking through the lobby/casino at the Flamingo welcoming people to "my hotel." The people I was with insisted on letting me go first so they could see the look on everyone's face as I strolled on by. :p :p :p At Mandalay Bay I made people guess where we were staying (those who thought about it for more than 1/2 a second actually guessed correctly). Pretty much zero dinner followed by a trip to Red Square (Russian bar/restaurant at Mandalay Bay) was quite an interesting experience. You can guess what they serve at Red Square, can't you? The best vodka by FAR was an amazing potato vodka from Idaho of all places. Then again, that's one of the first shots I had... I lost count at about five. I convinced our CEO to take 20 of us into the vodka vault for even more vodka -- this time from Russia (It really was not that hard. He's a great guy). Someone had to finish that last shot, and who was I to say no? "I'll take one for the team," I thought. Perhaps that was one too many. Perhaps not. In any event, a good time was had by all. G=ood night John B:eek:y and good night b:rolleyes:x

ok really i must sleep now! Those of you who were at the CO mini DO at Sammy's Romanian in NYC a few years ago remember the bottles of vodka being served in blocks of ice... I think we had six bottles for ~35 people ... then again some people didn't have any that night, leaving more for the rest of us. My work crowd isn't that tame :D :D :D Time for bed for me too... <snore> |

YES HKG-EWR I was a gold on an H (now B) fare and had a $0 copay. I was 1 on the list. The s/o was silver and had a copay of $400 and was listed 2 on the list.
The only thing that elite status gets you is a higher position on the waitlist. |
