Sounds like a fun time. You could always get on the train on Saturday and head south to DCA! :)

I've been tempted too -- but somehow I don't think the kids would be as interested...

Interesting, this flight seems to be confusing everyone at CO. I assume the reason it is leaving outta D-1 is the fact that the plane is coming from Mexico.

That's what I thought, but don't they accommodate the international ERJ flights at E?

The 17 y/o kid was lucky :p

WOrk??? Priorities man, priorities. First you miss the DCA DO and now The Box!

No, I haven't abandoned the Box. In fact, today I'm bored out of my mind at the client site, so I've even read a thread in the AA forum. Now THAT is bored!

And today I found out that on our AUA flight, Y is full and FC has 2 open seats, and we are the only ones on the u/g list. Don't ANYONE from the Box buy those two seats.......... :mad:

Postage will be USPS rates but they will charge you a monthly fee to have the service. It is usually in the $20/month range. I've never seen a promo or scheme whereby their service was a good idea unless you are sending a LOT of mail, enough to the point that you'd actually be spending sufficient time going to the post office for supplies to offset the monthly carrying costs.

Yes -- but for that price you need to depart the US Nov. 21-27. Thanksgiving in Germany, anyone?!

We had a teacher in my high school that was the mental sex object of most of the guys in the junior and senior classes. We were all hoping she would volunteer to work the prom.

The Dark Force of the Double Standard lives. We had a male teacher at that same high school who hooked up with a student. Both their lives were made into absolute hell when it came out. I went to kindergarten with the girl.

what a name!

Did you read the comments below the article? Someone dropped the "Astro" reference, and a few comments down another poster says 'Why "Astro"? She's not a dog.' (Couldn't make that up if I tried.)

Thank you supposed unofficial CO Twitter account... :rolleyes:

P.S. - CO has even written their own tie-in to the Twitter API.

No comprende as to why BCN in November commands twice the fare premium of everywhere else in Europe. Is there something obvious that I don't know about?

Don't get me started on the Twitter thread. I'm still waiting for an answer from the Snap-On who thinks that all airline marketing should be directed at the most profitable customers.

Part of the reason she ended up with such a light sentence is that the kid admitted that he was the one pursuing her and she gave in.

And yes, I agree: luckiest kid in school.

It seems like all of the fares are for Thanksgiving week. Now to see if I can convince the Longhorn to go to Germany while her team plays the Aggies.

$800 + tax for EWR-AMS; not bad at all. I might have to buy tickets to Europe over Thanksgiving instead of redeeming miles.

^ Homemade blueberry white chocolate chip ice cream is a regular at our house.

That should only work if you promise her a TV that she can watch the game on.
