For any purpose other than a MR, absolutely.

This was one of the longest work weeks I've had in awhile. Hate working 5 nights in a row. I was trying to be the best PTLA (part time lazy a$$) but that didn't work.

I had to deal with a cheating customer. One broken windshield/delayed flight. Two kids barfing in the gate area. Mutiple flights departing at the same time. Overbooked and oversold flights with zero options and begging for volunteers. Sore and tired feet.

I'm exhausted. Thank god I'm off until Sunday night.

I was trying to book a ticket to Bangor, Maine for July and couldn't... Turns out that CO has dropped EWR-BGR and a bunch of other destinations: http://www.usatoday.com/travel/fligh...=67159125.blog

Morning, Box. I'm back from wet and windy Bristol, UK complete with 2 suitcases FULL of chocolate and tea bags .... oh, and some Maynards Wine Gums for Olton Hall. They nearly put me over my baggage allowance ... LOL!

Merci. They aren't that heavy. Are you comiing to Shogun pre-game next week? (I know I owe a bunch of people directions)

I said screw it on trying to do work this afternoon so I went to the garden center and finally found the flowers I've been looking for. Now it's hot and humid outside but I got to get them in the ground before the rain tomorrow.

And I wonder why I'm tired. :D

You'll have plenty of time to rest on the flight watching New Adventures of Old Christine and classic Frazier's such as when Niles first meets Daphne. Ok you'll likely be stuck in the middle seat. :(

I'm sure sfogate has enough pull to not get stuck in 29E.

I picked up some yesterday, but have been out of cash since. Won't have money to buy the rest.

It's ID 18215, that's the same as Air Koryu in the other 2 worlds, which IS xyzzy.

Anyways, I don't worry about his airline at CDG, nor Hartmann's. I think my worldwide multi-superhubs strategy will pay off and beat both of them soon. :p

Obviously I missed that. I did look at the AM forums earlier but found nothing like that.

Yes -- 'tis I. I got a bit of a late start,

I think Hartmann would agree with me that that strategy would be --- WR:eek:NG.
