It is L9 right now, again assuming you are looking at CO633 for Saturday morning.

So they are saying that I cant do a stopover on a through fare??? I have no idea what that means but what I want to do is take the 5:45 am flight to IAH, spend the day in Houston, and continue on my original routing to SMF at 9 pm.

Should this be a problem?

ETA: "I'm so sorry Mr. Bryan, I didnt realize you were a Platinum member. We'd be happy to make this change for you for $25"

Unless your fare rules prohibit stopovers, there should be no issue with that I don't think.

I am in the 4points PHL now, my room is on the top floor and decorated with classic airplanes :D love it!

I'm staying in a suite that is all of 15 whole minutes closer to BNA. Had a certificate from the official grand opening that was set to expire June 1. About to hit the jacuzzi / pool / fitness center - not too hard, as I'm pretty sure my knee has to be scoped out.

That sounds like a better response. ^

THis is tomorrow morning right? 12:50 is fine with me, just got to remember to move my body clock forward an hour :)

and BTW congrats on job, get some leads and make some sales!

Indeed, 12:50PM Eastern, or thereabouts based on delays. From hotel #1 to hotel #2 to cheesesteaks and peoplewatching on South Street.

22 minutes without a box post during the day? must be some kind of record!

There are Mondays where the Box records less than one full 40-post page. Those are the days that I would :rolleyes: over when I was working in Atlantic City, because Mondays were always the slowest day of the week and I relied on Teh Box to get me thru.

Indeed sir, and thank you. I'm looking very much forward to putting a face to the hockey. Oh, FYI: the family thing in FLL got moved to the 13th, but the night of the 14th is still open.

I have managed to avoid that, thankfully. Between the abuse I threw at my knees while playing basbeall as a kid and the abuse I throw at them being tall and overweight, in addition to the subluxing kneecaps, I'm surprised that I haven't needed a scope.

Getting to the gym now - had to finish dinner and beers and let the meal settle first.

A policy group at George Mason made a "Freedom in the 50 States" Index. I guessed four of the "lowest-ranking" five without looking at the report or the methodology: Maryland (46th and my birth state), California (47th), New Jersey (49th) and New York (50th).

I would have swapped MD with MA, but that's just me. :D:D:D:D

OK for the 14th, somewhere around Boca Raton. We'll talk about what kind of place tomorrow night since the Devils and the Caps have been eliminated and the fun is out of the playoffs. Now they are just a curiosity to me to look in on from time to time to see if what I was expecting to happen is what really is happening.

I had two scopes on my left knee which left it bone on bone so I needed a replacement a few years after the second. BTW, no need for the "sir" until I quit being like every other slogging business traveler on these boards, scraping for the upgrades and hoping that the hotels have saved better rooms for me since I have been to them so many times.

You didn't live in MD for three decades - one's acutely aware of the true lameness when one moves from MD to VA back to MD and then to TN.
