Looks like you can fly in/out of EWR/LGA and get connections for the same price.

She asks what certificate I have, I explain "the buy one get one free one, the promo code is..." but before I could finish, "oh I don't need that, you're talking about the BF promotion where you have to buy a full fare BF fare to get the free one, you're better off just buying two tickets on the site". I then explained that no, this is the one for the lower 48.

She proceeds to ask me if I entered the promo code and PIN, "yes, I entered them but it gives me an error saying..." once again, before I finish, "oh, you must being doing something wrong". We walk through the process and she asks if there are restrictions on the promo, which there aren't besides the no travel on Sunday.

She tries it and says, "oh, there's an error for some reason, not sure what that means. What city pairs would you like sir?". "I'd like to look at IAH-PDX and AUS-PDX just in case one is significantly cheaper". "Sir, that's not how it works..."

"Yes, I know that's not how it works but I may need to be in AUS anyway, so I'd like to get prices for both".

Basically, she called me stupid for the seven minutes we were on the phone.

Here's my bizarro story from tonight. I was going to the parking lot after leaving Target and as I was pushing my full cart, a large black crow is coming in for a landing and hits my head on the way down. I can still feel where the claw hit my scalp. I thought I was Tippi Hedron in the Birds. I was more than a little freaked out. At least there was no bird mess to clean up, but still . . .

I found AUS at $158. IAH-AUS-IAH-LAX-IAH-AUS-IAH came in at just over $300. He'll overnight at AUS but still way better (and more miles).

Yum! I know it's a chain restaurant, but... I've been to that location a few times. Never had bad service nor bad food there. It was pretty good.^ (

If it was a Grackle you should start packing heat so you can wipe them from the face of the planet.
