I don't see that at all. One of my ex-gfs is left-handed, and there was never any confusion how we should sit when having Chinese food. I always sat to the right of her so our chopsticks wouldn't tangle. And we could still hold hands while eating... Hehehe...

Latin for left-handed is "sinistra"

Draw your own conclusions...

One of my favorite sayings is:

There's a :rolleyes: born every minute, and he/she took up a whole hour's worth.

Fly this route on a very very routine basis and I have yet to be even offered a chance at a bump. However, I have been moved up to earlier flights when the late afternoon flight is delayed (like always!!) without having to fork over the $25 ransom fee. Enjoy NYC.

I just priced LAX-DCA and M fare is actually $170 more than a B fare for first week of August.

The best part of that story was the fact that there's a video clip to click on. The worst part is that YouTube removed it for "terms of use violations" :mad:

Similar pricing is the reason I'm now Platinum - the B fare was the lowest for ATL-KOA (via DTW, LAX, CVG); I took advantage before the fares were appropriately re-priced.

Howdy everyone!

Back in town after a week of camping and kayaking on the fjords of Norway. Truly an amazing trip. Not going to spend much time catching up on FT until Monday when I'm really home but wanted to drop in and say hi.

It's that time of year. I'd like to extend the box an invitation to this years San Diego Film Festival. It runs from 9/23-9/27, conveniently the last weekend the SPG Free Nights promo is good for and the host hotel is the W.

I'm in the midst of negotiating a group rate for passes. If you are interested, let me know so I can have an idea of how many people want to attend.

There's also the possibility of recoding a live podcast for those who may care. :)

It's a lot of fun, there is a lot of sitting on your butt and watching movies but there are also parties every night. The event is held throughout downtown San Diego and is always a blast.

The event's website is here.

Sounds like a great trip.
