Definitely need noise canceling headsets whenever near a propeller-driven aircraft.

I've got a major retro vibe i'm rockin.

Something tells me you don't have the really cool Ikea black kitchen cabinet w/ red counter?

[QUOTE=mwg25;12132742]I just found out that my dad went there one summer during college (mid-70s) and he says it was basically the best thing ever. His eyes seriously lit up like a kid at Christmas. I need to figure out how to convince him to go back one of these years (and I'd love to see it myself).

No No! That is a great sound!!! Especially a P-51 or a Corsar!

Last night we were in 1E/F and had a RUDE older eruo trash coulpe sitting behind us. They were loud and kept kicking my seat all night. When I was sleeping, I felt somthing under my seat, it was their feet kiching the bottom of my seat when they stretched out. They also used my arm rest as a foot rest :mad:. They were also the first ones up while we were still rolling down the runway at 40 MPH to get their bags out of the overhead bins.

I am sure I would have accidentally spilled something on them. Good morning box.

I couldn't agree more. Truly impressive, especially the ones who claim to have "read everything so far but have one more question" that was answered in the very first couple posts.

Congrats.

G'Morning, Box.

The wife has not put a veto out fully on travel, just on Delta travel, at least for now. That is fine until we get to New Years where the BCN trip is on DL but I'm sure she'll be Ok with that. Time to book more flights.

The determining factor was that the Kaiser Ch(i)efs* are the opening act. Ruby ruby ruby ruby. :-:

How was it? I would have predicted a riot.

WN. We are saving $450 on our summer trip to CLE by driving to BWI.

For those in the KOSH area here is the link to the information about the airbus tour and flight demo.

Airbus at EAA Oshkosh

Wow -- they're allowing A380 walk-throughs! I'd love to go -- but I'd imagine it's difficult finding a hotel...

Check out US Mint's reproduction of some of these. I noticed it while wandering their site hoping to see my $1 coins moving from their perpetual "on hold" status.

good morning box

Looks like Alex went live this morning... Of course, none of the bugs I discovered were fixed before release. :rolleyes: I'm not even sure why they let us preview these things if they never seem to pay attention to our feedback.

Morning Box!

Morning Box.

I'm bruised. Battered. Hungover. And have a rip roarin' headache. I'd say the concert was with great success. :-:

Honestly, despite really not liking 21st Century Breakdown all that much they put on an incredible show. Really high energy for almost three hours non-stop with a nice mix of new and old. Probably one of the best non-festival shows I've ever seen. Billie Joe Armstrong, has an incredible stage presence and yes, he really does look like he's perpetually 12.

If you'll need me. I'll be drinking water and coffee. Perhaps not in that order.

AMF in NJ Jul 28, 2009 7:14 am

Morning Box. :rolleyes:

Nothing like getting on a conference call and somehow listening to someone's private conversation and they not know it. :-::rolleyes:
