Discovered this morning that the SA Glassware I recently came into possession of did not make the flight back in one piece. :(

Thankfully, the LH Beer Glass made it ^

Yes, I have seen very bad behavior on the Metro, but it is still the cleanest, safest public transit system in the US, IMO, and is very well-policed. Much of the scary stuff can be seen outside stations in certain areas, and usually just involves intoxicated homeless people or unruly school children.

I was coming home from DCA a few weeks ago and the Metro car in which I was riding started filling with smoke in the tunnel under the Potomac River between Rosslyn and GWU. Watching people start to panic was among the scarier Metro scenes I have witnessed.

BART is fine, in my experience, but it takes awhile to get from SFO airport into San Francico and the East Bay. The cloth seats are not that exciting, however.

Too bad Ted Kennedy jokes are kinda off limits these days. :o

I found the one Whataburger in Baton Rouge at lunch today!

Craving satisfied — bacon cheese Whataburger, fries with "fancy" ketchup, and large Diet Dr. Pepper. I'm a happy man. :D

Another productive day for the Box, and the only productive day off I had this week. I went and got my comped spa treatments, submitted my application to become a notary (finally breaking down and doing it because of work) and also picked up the start kit for a commercial driver's license. The job is giving me the worst possible days off: Thu/Fri/Sat. While normal people would be excited about that, I'm cheesed because those are the high volume and high tip days. Solution: call in a favor with a friend and drive a Town Car for his company on my days off, which are busy days for him. Get the commercial license so as to be able to drive vans and make more money...the beauty of having those days off, a bright spot if there is one, is that I won't have to be nearly as conscious of entertainment and live music around town.

rolov: there are many more choices than that burger...my girl swears by the chicken spinach and roasted pepper sandwich they do at this place. The beer selection is small, but all of it is made start to finish on the premises.

You guys down south are making me jealous talking about Whataburger. Thats about the only place I didnt hit up when in Houston last week.:( Oh well I guess there is always next weekend in Dallas.;)

Someone really needs to tell me why ketchup is fancy. I've never seen ketchup that qualified as the opposite of fancy...though I did have the organic Heinz last night, and I must say that the tomato flavor is much more pronounced.

Oh, and while I'm on a posting frenzy here: can anyone come up with a good reason not to own a Blackberry? It turns out that the access is much cheaper than I had originally thought, and I would like to get a phone that could replace a paper datebook and also let me get real-time looks at pda.co.com - any haters out there care to share?

Ha. Seinfeld Jr. "What's the deal with fancy ketchup..."

F/S/S off = NYC box DO! ;)

I just looked at plan pricing again yesterday, and am headed out this afternoon to pick up a new 8830 World Edition (Verizon). I want to keep Verizon because I am happy with their service, and all their pda's suck, so BB it is.

be a fan boy and get a 3G iPhone.

Ef iPhones.
