Great minds think alike. Here is my post from the DC DO last weekend!

Let us know when the last day at "the gate" is.

Then we can have the "SFOGATE is now SFOBAGLADY or SFOBAG DO"

How? Jrzyshawn and I are doing the same flight at the end of September. According to my calc I could get ~33k RDM's if I sign up for the DL AMEX but likely Ill only get ~25k as Im giving my credit some rest before the next batch of AA cards.

I am crediting my miles as a gold to CO. I think I should get about 16K RDM's off the top of my head.

It's all about knowing the lay of the land.

We had a full kitchen in HHI last month, I cooked quite a bit. We would have saved money if we hadn't bought enough food to last a month rather than a week. :rolleyes:

Hello. Checking in from my parents' home in the hublet (hallelujah, it's my week off). My dad and I took my girls to see the Tribe today (Kids' Day) and we got four innings out of them. And the Tribe even won. Will miracles never cease?

Tonight's the Bristol night race for me. I've been singing The Dovells since this morning (even though "Bristol Stomp" isn't about TN/VA). :p

"The Bristol Stomp" is actually about Bristol, PA (one of the north Philly suburbs), isn't it?

Not surprising. My team is ranked #9 or 11, depending on which poll you look at. I'll be quite happy if we stay right there throughout the season (and also figure out a quarterback situation).

My team is The :rolleyes:hi:rolleyes: State University, despite not having gone there (the only family member who attended was one of my grandfathers, who, family lore has it, was thrown out and graduated from Cincinnati instead). They are apparently ranked number 6, looking to end up at 10 after the inevitable losses to Southern Cal and Wisconsin or Michigan State and the victory over Michigan.

Mickey Dee's Angus Burger: :rolleyes:

Jack's Sirloin Burger: ^, surprisingly so. If only their fries didn't suck.

I tried the Angus Burger yesterday at BWI (traveling by myself with the kids; they wanted McDonalds). It wasn't awful, but if I'm going to consume that amount of calories I may as well have something else.

Indeed it is; hence TN won't claim it. ;)

On Google Maps, my yard / home have snow. That really limits the number of days (to about three over the last three years) when the camera could have come down the road.

Sorry for the late response (a Box-free weekend), but one reason is that their equipment reliability is poor and their customer service when it does break is w:rolleyes:rse. I got one of their backcountry GPS units a few years ago as a gift for Christmas. The compass was DOA. I was told that a warranty replacement w/o receipt "is not possible." Fortunately, my wife bought the gift, and she bought it at Costco, so they were able to look up the purchase 11 months later. I also learned she bought a box of Honey Nut Cheerios while doing Christmas shopping. :-:

I've got a Garmin nuvi 270 I got free thanks to a promo posted over in SPAM last year. It's been good to me so far.

Without knowing the constraints of your diet, would you consider getting a In-N-Out burger protein style?

I will be very happy with Plus1's car is fixed (which I hope is tomorrow) so that I can get BL jr ready for bed, do a few emails, take a nap, then get up for a regular day :p. I used to be a morning person but don't know what happened to me. Maybe if I start going to bed at BL JR's new bedtime, I can get up when she does.

The 1,800 calories a day, 60 grams of fat limitations probably eliminate most excursions to In-N-Out ...

Google Maps picked a day when I was probably in Europe, because my car is in the driveway and my wife's isn't.
