Mornin' Box...

I woke up really lightheaded and feeling strange. The only thing I can think of is that with the rain letting up, the pollen is back in the air and it's hitting me like a brick. Of course, all of the doctor's offices are full with people wondering if their headache is swine flu, so I'm SOL.

If one slide contains 20lines of block text, you fail.
If you don't give the audience time enough to read said text, you really fail.
If you use in your opinion cute transitions, you have a cute presentation that fails.
If you do nothing more than read the slide to the audience, you fail.

Feel better.

Looks like pollen counts are up in Houston.

Hope you feel better - just don't show any signs of not feeling well when you fly tomorrow. :D

out here northwest of you, it has been a perpetual 7AM like outside during all daytimes for days now. So gloomy I'm feeling sleepy all day!

carry lysol :D and spray it ever 5 min around you.

Better yet use that fresh linen scent that smells NOTHING like fresh linens and makes one want to barf.

I like the way you think, the problem is I am just as likely to barf as the other guy.

Ust walked past my butcher. He closed up shop. Gone. No mas. After 49 years in business.

I'm distraught. Shopping there, with the conversations and them actually trimming the meat custom was phenomenal. And now it is gone. :( :(

Point and laugh all you want but I will be carrying some lysol wipes with me on my MR to SEA this weekend. I know CO doesnt do that good of a job of cleaning tray tables, arm rests, etc so Ill do it myself. However, I will not be wearing a mask.

My allergies are over. I think the tree pollen was high, and I was getting nailed. Zyrtec to the rescue. Now, I am off the Zyrtec doing fine. I hope you feel better. GL finding out what is causing your symptoms.

Masks are porous. Can they keep microscopic organisms out of your airway? Probably not. The only thing the masks do is keep you from touching your hand to your nose or mouth. But, you can still touch your eyes. Masks are :rolleyes:

Thanks everyone! I took a Claritin about an hour ago and I think it's kicking in.


Is row 16 on the 764s (non-Mike) any better than the rest of the plane? SeatGuru says it has an extra inch of legroom so with no one in front of you reclining, it may be a better choice for me.
