Being delayed at DFW E really sucks. Everything there shuts down around 7:30-8:00. It's like MEM in that regard. At least now you can quickly transfer to the other terminals behind security, unlike the old days with the old train there.

We had dinner at Brasilia in Newark and saw that on the TV! I had no idea it was in Chicago...

When did you order yours? I ordered a week ago and my order is still, "On hold." :confused:

I wrote a check for our lawn service today.

You need to re prioritize!

We have 6 carry ons, 2 checked bags plus a checked booster seat. Truly :rolleyes:
I don't know what I'd do without it!

Plus1's reunion is this weekend so I had to have a separate dress/shoes (okay, 2 colors because I can't decide)/evening bag (same issue as the shoes because I want to watch). Even with that, it shouldn't have filled the bag (BL JR requires a lot, what can I say).

The circus celebrities are home and BL JR will hopefully be so sleepy for our flight tomorrow that she'll actually sleep.

My most recent order was ordered on the 16th and shipped yesterday, arrived today. The final $1000 in Presidential coins I can get until the Mint forgets my order history...I guess it's all Native Americans or Agriculture for me until the new Presidents get released in the Fall.

Okay -- I ordered on the 17th...

Isn't that 3 carry-ons, 3 personal items, 2 checked bags plus a checked booster seat?

And there's always the matter of the agriculture supposedly being backordered until the 28th. I was on the Mint website this afternoon but didn't order...none of the Presidents IIRC were backordered. James K. Polk dollar coin rolls are due on 8/20, with those of Zachary Taylor later in the fall - 1000 or 3000 more points for me, depending on choice of card.

For those that are using Hilton AmEx, does the spend get you the status for the balance of the calendar year? If so, there's no point in me trying for Gold in 2009 since my existing spend is too low and I won't be crediting the next four stays to my account...honey has to get her point bonuses, too.

I just downloaded Plus1's photos from the circus. When I asked him to take photos, I thought he realized I meant of he and/or BL JR. There are 3 photos of Rog, which should be fun to photoshop; and various circus pics that I could care less about. Oh, well - hope BL JR likes the pics :rolleyes:

It's sleepy time, Box.

Actually 2 carry ons and 4 personal items
All this coin talk has me itching to go back!

Is there a limit to those? If so, is it the speculated $250x20/order? Are multiple orders of them allowed?

Yes, up in 4 hours

The only limit to the non-Presidential coins that I know of is what icurhere2 posted the other day. It is said that the Mint's shopping cart can't handle a third digit in the box quantity field. 250 per box, 99 boxes = $24,750.

The non-Presidential coins don't have a limit on frequency of order that I know of. Order history being dropped from the Mint = ~4 months.

If the coin thread in MilesBuzz wasn't 76 pages, I'd read it...that's too much crap for me to wade thru.

Page with coin release dates...
