What might have happened with your Diet Coke is that it was from outside the US. Those often taste different. Or your can of Diet Coke had been chilled several times. Unopened cans are used on other flights.


The plane hadn't been outside the US as far back as I could trace it (at least per the PDA site yesterday). I guess I've never chilled/warmed a can multiple times, so that could be it.

I'm finally seeing some blue skies out this way, so there may be hope for you in an hour or so.

Since it did rain before midnight last night, yesterday was the 18th day that it rained in the month of June. :rolleyes:

Fixin' to be a long day. Broken pinky (I feel like I should be related to sfogate :rolleyes:;):D) is making typing agonizing.

Had the DEQM promo still been running I doubt that I would have made my will save to resist going on an MR.






DEQM
Enchantment (Compulsion) [Mind-Affecting]
Level: COCRS 4, Sor/Wiz 5
Components: Internet posting, $1billion revenue losses
Casting Time: 1 round
Range: Worldwide
Target: One CO elite
Duration: One online purchase
Saving Throw: Will negates
Spell Resistance: Yes (only for plats)

You can control the actions of any continental elite creature through a telepathic link that you establish with the subject’s mind.

You can generally force the subject to perform as you desire to purchase unneccessary tickets for travel within the limits of its abilities and bank account. While flying under the compulsive effect, the elite will not necessarily act according to your desires and may put their feet on the bulkhead, clip their toenails, harass the FAs or become beligerantly drunk.

Wow, pitiful service all around tonight! One or two of these things is nothing to complain about, but with all of this, it seemed more like I was on a US flight than a CO flight…

1. I’d really like it if the FA didn’t say “Eww” and cringe when I asked for my usual Disaronno and Diet Coke!

Not like US at all - they are too cheap to carry Disarronno.

Sounds like an easy decision to me. :)

The fact that all my segs are upgraded makes it harder.

I'm just torn between being lazy or going out there to take care of some stuff.

Interesting note, NW/DL upgrade itins at time of ticketing if you are within your EUA window. No need to wait for EUA to run.

US does the same thing and that is one of the few areas in which those two programs are better than the others for those of us who travel on business with frequent short-notice purchases. .
