14 seats open, 13 people on the standby list... We'll see... :rolleyes:

When asked at the Freddies (more like accused, but that's a different story) CO Insider said that they are removing (or had already removed, I don't remember which) that question from the check-in process because it just confuses things. I haven't seen it in a while anyways since I've been EUA'd well in advance recently.

True, I was referring to something someone actually did. This genius attorney put up a section of the U.S. Code for the jury to read. (I can't believe he was getting paid to do that. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Mega Millions
 
The jackpot for Friday night is $220 million. The cash option (at least here in TX) is $143,500,000.^ I bought my 3 tickets. Odds of winning the jackpot are 1:175.7 million.:td:

Trademark witty comments delivered. Thanks, that felt good. ^^ I really wanted to isolate the line about "her normally laid back husband", but I don't like to repeat myself...I went after the poor hapless husband in the zillion-mile thread. Too recent to reuse that.

Maybe I should get on my flight tomorrow carrying one of those middle-school biology kits and just start swabbing everything, including people.

Box exclusive: H1N1 just confirmed 30 miles north of NYC. :rolleyes:

Shall I start a thread: CONTINENTAL SERVED HAM ON THIS PLANE AND THEY WON'T LET ME REBOOK. :rolleyes:

Regarding the MEX post - it seems the OP has been kinda/sorta talked off the ledge.

Dude! Do NOT insult the pigs like that. They hate it. Please call it the Messican flu. The Israelis will thank you.:rolleyes:

PSU Mudder Apr 30, 2009 11:44 am

Although the piggy flu is a different matter, last year me, the 4 yr old and the 2 yr old all got the norovirus or some nasty equivalent from NW. Somehow Mrs. Mudder escaped its wrath. I ended up in the ER.

So now all the other paggengers look at me funny when I'm traveling with the kids and we pull out the clorox wipes and wipe down the tray tables, arm rests, and seat belts.
