I don't have anything I would put in its place. I just wasn't blown away with like many others seem to have been. It really os just a straightforward Bollywood production, despite the handfull of disturbing parts.

We are watching For All Mankind in honor of the 40 year anniversary of the first moonwalk (which, sadly or happily, we both remember)

There are passable airline movies, awful airline movies, and "I just lost 116 minutes of my life" airline movies.

That basically sums up my thoughts on most of the movies Hollywood dumps out...

Sad, but true. I tend to hit the classics on AVOD.

While I'm making unpopular comments, I might as well mention what a disaster this "health care " proposal is going to be for all those with a net worth of $10 million or less. Flame away.

:D


:eek:

You definitely have a keeper!


Feel better soon! Time on FT ought to fix it!



^:D

When I was living in LBB and going to TTU I saw a service that you needed. it was a Laundry Service that picked up laundry from Dorm Rooms on campus and returns it to them. That is just said.

It was a weird movie but funny in a stupid way or as CM states. Not something I plan to see again.

Good question. I'll refrain from answering. Now, when will UA have a killer QUP fare from/to MCI.



You will have a blast. Capt Denny is a pleasure and last weeks dinner was a lot of fun.



Maybe, maybe not. When i status matched last year it said it was good until 2/2009. I called and they said it was actually good until 2/2010 but the system will only show you the current year.

I hope so as I applied last week.

Any recommendations for a travel backpack? I'd like something that I could fit a pair or two of jeans, undergarments, and a couple of shirts as well as a laptop. I looked at the travel backpacks on eBags and they all look extremely bulky.

BTW, Staples is giving away backpacks this week for free. Review online on in the store ad.

^ I love our ceiling fan. While we have ceiling fans in every room, our bedroom and great room get the most use; yet our Reliant bill was still :mad:

I'm not going to flame away - I believe the proposal's rushed and misguided but am keeping this away from OMNI/PR.

SO I get the following email today from my aunt:

"I booked my flight to NY LGA and I fall about 290 miles short of ELITE! I could scream………went down to Continental shop, going back this afternoon.

Found some COLORFUL luggage tags for all of 70 cents each in any color and t-shirts for $5!
Since I am going to PA to exercise, I thought that would be a perfect shirt besides my Clemson shirts to exercise in.

They have really nice Liz Clairborne micro-fiber shirts on sale for women, around $26 but with the CO logo on the front left it is kinda obvious but they are really nice I have to admit."

I think I have created a monster!

I guess I need to tell her to fly to AMA one weekend!

No flames here either, except for the smoldering leftovers of what the American democracy is supposed to be.

I have a friend who calls the internet the interweb. Makes me laugh every time she says it.

Plus1 on both comments.

The ABC Show "Dating in the Dark" has a former co-worker of mine on it, the guy named "Seth." Wow is that strange to watch.

Me neither. I dont understand the need for FB. FT yes, FB no.

Keep in mind, I'm very, very old. My college provided maid service, but did not provide laundry service. UPS helped me out.

A friend from jr. high (Yes, I'm that old - I went to jr. high and not middle school) talked me into FB. I was reluctant. I signed up and it's been good. Plus1 thought it very :rolleyes: but then he signed up and low and behold, was hooked (not as much as teh Box, but ...)
