FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

Looks like the upgrade chances are slowly going out the window... 19 of 20 booked and I have my doubts about her getting upgraded. It looks like some non-elites went for the $200 upgrade.

I would have. :-:

My mother and I are reviewing the Devils schedule looking for game dates that work for a road game. I told her that Black Friday was a road game in Boston with a noon start. About an hour after I said this, she looks at the schedule and says: "You TOLD me that the Saturday after Thanksgiving was against Buffalo and it started at 1:00...:mad:."

I guess you won't be buying an Ant Farm for baglady jr this Christmas.

The only time I use to get ants, was in Hawaii. They would crawl into the master bedroom via the window air conditioner, onto the night table and then on the bed....just to bite me while I was taking a nap. We had millions of them living in the hollow cement block wall and the Bug Guy said forget about spraying, it would be just a waste of money.

I thought about it, but the better half said she would rather spend it on clothes. :rolleyes:

She's content in 16A with her feet on the entertainment box.

I can't say I disagree.. although I'd probably spend that $200 on a MR. :D

She didn't want your upgrade?

After the experience I had on the way up (in Y) I think she feels bad

BHM has highly underrated golf. I would love to organize a trip to BHM and play the RTJ properties in town. If memory serves, there are three 18-hole regulation courses and one 18-hole par-3 course spread between two sites that are both no more than 30 minutes from the aeropuerto. HHonors aficionados will be thrilled to know that there is a Hampton Inn that is almost perfectly triangulated between the two courses and said airport.

I would either drive or make a MR to that if it were organized on a weekend. I might even drive the beverage cart, given the two discs in my neck.

There are excellent, cheaper alternatives.

With all this lawn talk, I'm wondering if Hank Hill and Dale Gribble will be stopping by Teh Box tonight :D

Considering I just went to Lowes to help work on the nitrogen depleted patch ...

Anything to do with the guys in the matching suits? Or did you just end up with the turkey dog?

I was in the window seat and a guy who was at least 6'7" was in the middle and he didn't believe that armrests are indicators of personal space. His legs were spread out so that his left foot was on my vid equipment box. After some subtle hinting he moved it.

Late into the flight I needed to get up to use the restroom and I asked if he would mind if I got up, he replied, "No" and proceeded to just sit there. As I tried to climb over him I pulled something in my back and the pain was so bad that I just about passed out walking to the back of the plane. I'm still in pain and will probably see a doctor wheni get back into town.
