Unfortunately, I have to leave PBI tomorrow evening. :(
No sarcasm - it could make for some interesting FM lines... EDIT: Hmm - I forgot DL pulled out of ACY... Doesn't look like it would be possible. If the lines were actually visible, my FM would yield some interesting lines in the NJ area. All those little dots south of NYC are the municipal airports my father and I flew to when I was little. The airline "Dad's Airline" in my airline column is reflective of that. We went up flying many more times than that, but I don't know how many times or have trip lengths, etc. They're all in his logbook, and I don't know if he still has it. My father is on the poop list right now anyway: he showed about as much excitement as a corpse when I told him I was working on proposing. :mad::td::mad::td::( |

If it is a V fare both directions then you are pretty close on the numbers since they should be equal in both directions. Where are you flying from?
You can also just call the co.com helpdesk or the elite line and ask how much it'll cost. ;) BTW, make sure that there are upgrade seats available before paying extra. Otherwise you'll be throwing money away. You cannot wait list using NW miles. Thanks for the info. |

I think he's sweet, but yes, he looks 16, and he probably is. Why is he giving you grief over the Pinot Noir? I started bartending at 19 (actually was on the concierge level of a hotel, but basically a glorified bartender) and thought I knew everything ;)
Him: "Are you 21?" Me: "Yes." Him: "I'll need to see your ID" Me: - I pass it to him Him: "This looks fake" :rolleyes: I brushed it off and took my Pinot and had a seat by the window but I was tempted to reply, "Yeah, I like to sit in my basement all day making fake IDs so I can get wine in the President's Club" |

And not just wine - but you were ordering premium wine. If it was fake, you wouldn't be doing that! You'll appreciate those boyish looks down the road ;) |

On an unrelated note... FLL Security Checkpoint at 5:30am on a Tuesday Morning = KCS (Kettle Central Station). |
More reason (as if more were needed) to take the 11AM to NY or Houston instead of the 7. However, FYI, PBI is a usually breeze on a weekday at that hour.

I get carded all the time in the PC. (2 out of 3)
When I was in my early twenties I got into the habit of ordering a drink or 2 with some dollar bills in my hand to tip them . I think maybe once they asked me what year I was born in. |
Oh and since I want to make post 700 here
Im ordering this backpack for my camera today. I found it on the Travel Photography Forum . |

Something keeps beeping in my office. I'm sensing someone is setting me up for a very elaborate prank. If I'm posting from my blackberry from the men's room later, it's because I can't get up from the toilet due to a bomb attached to it -- wish me luck. ... of course this would happen today. I have a terrible headache. :rolleyes: |

Yes and no. I don't necessarily have to do the beach thing and make it predictable, but that is more and more seeming like the idea to go with. And as far as surprise, there is still a large element of it, because she has no idea that I'm working on it for the trip. Further comment on surprise: most women don't see the ring until the guy presents it. She picked hers out but doesn't remember what it looks like....she can describe it very vaguely, but if I put three rings in front of her and asked her which one was the one I bought, she couldn't tell me. I elected to have her pick because she is quite the perfectionist, and I didn't want to have to go back to the jeweler after the fact and get something different.

CO 1E, regarding CM's proposal, if we don't ask for exactly what we want, we are afraid we won't get it ;)
A couple of years ago, one of my friends took his longtime girlfriend to Paris for a week's vacation. She hoped that he would propose there, but he did not, and she was quite irritated. He then admitted that he did not propose in Paris just because he thought it was too predictable (and, I suspect, he just wanted to ruffle her feathers a bit). She was none too pleased. I think he ended up proposing on a subsequent trip to Italy. |
OK, "Kettles" are a new one to me. What does it mean? :confused:
