My vacation has to improve - I got to the off-site parking and immediately locked my keys in the car.

And we have gate lice at B-5; there are only 5 of 16 seats taken in F, so this isn't particularly an "elite-heavy" flight today.

I put the down payment on my new car on my amex instead of writing out a check.

Keep a list of good places to go (I'm sure you will) .....Hope to get there this next calandar year.

Nothing specifically awesome yet, other than watching the beautiful people wander by. Dinner was decidedly :rolleyes: at DKK 400 (~$75) but that was at the low end of the spectrum in the 'hood and we're to tired to venture much farther afield tonight.

Headed out to see (and possibly sail on) viking ships tomorrow. I'm very much looking forward to that!

G'night all.

The last time I played golf I locked my keys in the trunk as I was reaching for my clubs and spikes. Thankfully my playing partner was late to the tee time and the cops had vacated the parking lot in time for him to arrive. I'm admitting that this happened in The Box but I didn't tell him.

Aloha box. Greetings from Maui. I'm realizing that UA F to HNL is very :rolleyes: especially when taking the ORD/DEN flights.

Morning Box! It's actually good to be out of the Iowa corn fields and back home in NJ.

I see The Box has been rather :rolleyes: at keeping up with our FM recently... :p

I haven't put any of my flights since 4/12 in. It's on my todo list...

DL. It is a 772 LR for today, as of 5:30 this morning. Hopefully no last minute equipment swaps.

I am hoping for an equipment swap for my ICN-ATL flight in August. It's the only day that week they have a 772 scheduled and not a 77L. :mad::mad: It was a 77L when I booked it.

ATL was horrific pre renovation and 5th runway. Now it's just :rolleyes:.

ATL is horrible and I loathe it. IAD is actually decent if using Terminal A/B since they built the underground walkway. C/D are still very :rolleyes: They were supposed to be temporary... 30 years ago. Every time I'm in there I feel like I'm walking in a Special Needs trailer at a school.

I'm at sonic it has been crazy since it opened. Last week they closed early on Monday because they ran out of food.

Where did they open a Sonic in NJ?

Yep, F to HNL is nothing to write home about. However, if I have upgrade instruments to burn I'll take the upgrade. Enjoy your stay.

I don't mind ATL save for the narrow concourses and the Monorail of Death.

There's a few up North and there's one down my way, in Barnegat.

Ooohhhh. :( I locked my keys in the car at a rest stop near Bloomsburg, PA on the way home from New Haven a few years ago. First time I'd ever driven more than ~1.5 hrs by myself, actually. Thank goodness the cell phone was in my pocket and I wasn't in any particular hurry.

My sister bought a car last week and did 50-50 AMEX/check for the down payment (they told her it was 2K/max for the credit card).

I guess it depends on the dealer, my dealer gave me no min or max.
