Notorious?

I can think of at least another 1/2 dozen Hitchcock that should be on there.

You won't show an Adam Sandler movie for me? Really????:confused:

Yes, Hitch makes the list. Especially North By Northwest. So does Shrinking Man.

I liked the one Sandler did dealing with the loss of his family in 9/11.

Oh bugger...

Good times tonight with MBM3 in NYC. Watching the hookers pace the lobby of the Waldorf was particularly entertaining.

Scored a VDB today and they wanted me to take a cab to LGA during rush-hour to fly on US :rolleyes:. I told the GA that I'd rather route through DTW than try to get to LGA. He ticketed me in full Y for both flights so I'll pick up some extra EQP in addition to the $250 I scored. Also had time in DTW to grab some sushi for dinner.

After I volunteered, they IDB'd a woman who was extrememly pissed and spent at least 15 minutes screaming at the redcoat who had delivered the bad news.

On another note, a 747 painted in Delta colors just doesn't look right.

I prefer Angels and Demons over Da Vinci Code.

Good night Box.

I'm in SoCal with one EUA and the other a total whammy. Watching people file into the plane I was like "little girl for the middle seat.. little girl for the middle seat.."

We got the biggest man on the entire plane. My back is still sort of tweaked.

I flew into IAH exhausted, and discovered tha when you really just want to sleep IAH is not the place to be - the seats wont allow you to be comfortable and the noise of the place is just too much. Also, no maps? Was I just too groggy or did it really have no maps of shopping/dining options?

"Snack" in F TPA-IAH is a meat/cheese plate (the official flight time, not the one they post on CO.com, is 1h56m so you get screwed out of a meal). Better then nothing I suppose - the little baby brie or whatever it was, was yummy. Was there a recent thread on the lack of lime on some flights? Maybe that was DL?

Anywho, I got corona and lime several times - though for my last glass they skimped and it barely counted as a wedge. Maybe i'm the cause of the lime shortage?

About the 752 - the tray tables suck. I've never had a plate of food or drinks slide on an airplane anywher before. They definately did on this flight, so much so that during light turbulence my last corona/lime and diet coke made their own personal flight to the floor. I got very lucky and it missed my pants/shoes entirely. Most distressing, you couldn't tell that someone had just spilled an entire beer and diet coke on the floor. Note to self - avoid touching the floor on a plane.

I read both. Preferred Angels and Demons but enjoyed both books. However, I was so let down y the first movie (the *only* movie I was excited about enough that year to actually see in the theatre) that I can't bring myself to even walk in the theatre now. :(


Morning, box.
