I'm sure it will be awesome! Alas, I will be rocking out myself singing some Handel (concert at Westminster Choir College in Princeton) tomorrow night, in between finally getting a NJ driver's license and packing for HHH...

Have a great time! That reminds me....my license expires 8/31....time to get it renewed.

I just made my first US Mint order for 2 boxes of each of the 5 available presidents with my AMEX MR card. Once they're available again, I think I'll go for $24,500 worth of NA coins :D Then again...maybe not...don't want the Mint people to think we're taking advantage of them.

Speaking of 'taking advantage of them', I have to wait 4 months from the day I ordered before I do this again with the presidents right??

How about "My Super Ex-Girlfriend" and "Galaxy Quest"

Both a lot of fun.

Nay and yay. In that order.

The Departed is in, barely. We'll add Blood Diamond on your say so as I've yet to see it.

Love that movie. Also, I saw The Duchess on the plane going to Australia, and really enjoyed that too, even though I thought I wouldn't.

I didn't. No go.

Kiera Knightley is really very good in that.

Yes, but still doesn't the movie up enough for my channel. Sorry. :(

Yes.

We've seem to have added a few chick flicks.

If anybody even mentions The Notebook I will pluck out my eyes.

In other news, chorizo burrito was just procured.

Interesting to hear DL is giving wifi to Plats. Every time I fly DL lately I'm pleasantly surprised. They have a good operation. Too bad I despise JFK or I'd make some sort of idle threat about CO potentially losing my business. :rolleyes:

Does this include NWA PLats? Got my confirmation about NWA PLat for the remainder of 2009. Looks like they are only giving the status through Feb 2010. :(

I haven't forgotten about you all, just been way busy in FW lately.

Currently heinously delayed in DFW. CO2909 was DIV to DTW enroute from DEN-CLE, so that has hosed me tonight trying to get DFW-CLE.

If everything goes well, I hope to be in my bed by 2:15 am.

And now the PClub bar is fricking closed. Who closes a bar when I'm in the house???????

Sorry to hear of your troubles, just keep thinking AUA and you will be fine!


I like the idea of the mini do in DCA. I have tickets on reserve for 4 cents a mile! :D That is an airport and a PC I still need.

On a spur-of-the-moment roadtrip to LA while boxing. How do you guys deal with the mobile site?

I hate how I see 40 posts per page on my computer but only 30 on my bb. :rolleyes:

Yeah, the weather created the EWR and IAH redeyes to be late. That was a good thing because CLE oversold by 2 and I used IAH to reroute them.

Tonight's voucher going rate was $350 TC. I got one at the counter and had to beg on board for the other one.

I got a half hour of overtime for tonight's mess. ^

I just can't decide whether to pull the trigger on the whole coins thing. I want the miles, but the $$:effort ratio seems a bit off.


Mornin', box.......Today is the last day of a 12 day work week. I am out of gas and ready for a break.

[QUOTE=baglady;12114518I hate Wells Fargo.[/QUOTE]



Oh no! I am just about to apply to them for my house construction loan. Are they bad?

Scott6067 Jul 24, 2009 6:50 am

Morning Box!

Wells Fargo is now my bank and financial center as First Interstate Bank and the once previous to that is gone in Houston and AG Edwards became Wachovia which became Wells Fargo. Good in the since of less banks to deal with and lots of ATMs to use if I need although USAA is my main bank of choice.

As to the mobile site, I have had mixed results with it. Hopefully it has improved over the last few months.
