Yes...but they did give us RUSH so they're not all bad! :cool: :p
Steve, please tell me you don't do a Rush impersonation. |
The thunder and rain at our Nation's Capital is making me sleepy. Good night Box.

By the way....your average RUSH fan is so sick of Tom Sawyer that we'd prefer they skipped it when they play live and do some obscure stuff from the B-side of Hemispheres instead. Rush fans ~ Tom Sawyer; Eagles fans ~ Hotel California; Lynyrd Skynyrs fans ~ Freebird/Sweet Home Alabama....the list goes on and on..... |

So true. I thought Bethpage Black was hard at somewhere in the 130's. Ko'olau is a course I'd play to say that I played it (and for the photo ops) but I'd have no shame in playing it off the forwards, at least at my handicap.

My "can't turn the radio quick enough" is anything sung by Stevie Nicks. I haven't listened to Tom Petty and the Heartbreaker's "I Need to Know" since she screeched it out at one of the early concerts in Petty's 2006 Highway Companion Tour, and haven't listened to Dave Matthews Band's "Crash" since I heard part of her cover. Too many bad memories. |

Is this a good source? Also did they say weither or not it would be replacing the mainline at 6 am or 4:30 pm on the IAH-OKC or IAH-TUL runs? I assume if they take to OKC that they would take to TUL as well!
Come on CO, wait till I get a few more bumps than 1 on this route before decreasing my chances of bumps. I suspect that they will put the Q400 on LBB runs as well as those flights tend to be booked heavy at certain times. It was from a pilot who goes into training on them next month for the new IAH Q400 base. LBB would likely be a candidate, GRK isn't one of the first for sure :( From my understanding it won't just be a huge 15 new planes change, but rolling changes as the deliveries come. |

Ok...it's ON now! :p No I don't do a RUSH impersonation but they are my all-time favorite band and Neil Peart is the reason I wanted to become a drummer. Have probably seen them live close to 30 times.

The biggest mistake you can make when playing a difficult course is to try and play it from the tips. It'll make a great day miserable. Quote me on that.

Still gets the expression "the competent guitar of Geddy Lee" from a long ago concert-promotion commercial in my head.

I've heard it's pretty useless when it comes to upgrades, but at least it gets you some bonus points.
What pilot program is this and where do I sign up? ;) |

They spent a lot more time on the new album (and its :rolleyes: attendant political message -- you're liberals. WE GET IT. All of Hollywood is too.) and then went back into old stuff and Walsh's stuff. I can die happy as an Eagles fan: I heard the guys do all the 1971-1975 hits live, and I also saw Don Henley live when he closed with Desperado, and I heard Joe Walsh do "Life's Been Good". Seeing The Eagles was a checkmark on the life's to-do list.

I received the co offer a while ago. I didn't take it because I didn't want the points credited to co.

I got a similar promo a long time ago from US. It wasn't worth it. The SPG points are worth more than 3x CO points, IMO.

I'm SPG Gold and i dont recall doing anything at all to earn the status. I think it is linked to my onepass number or something.
Does having an address (or student ID) in Paris qualify me as Francillian? I want to pay only 29 euros to goto Disneyland Paris for two days. Anywho... bonsoir box - vous êtes ma petit chou.

The pool I used to swim in for 2-3 hours a day was cutting edge back in '73... Underwater sound system!!! The only record they owned was that single though. And folks think waterboarding is torture.:rolleyes: |

RE: SPG Gold - when she first got it - I did not! So no idea how the SPG/CO thing works (and Plus1 was given SPG plat at the time) |
