Hey Steve! Sorry I couldn't make it to either of your gigs this w/end! :( Am still recovering from whatever it is that I have! :rolleyes:

No worries.....I'll keep shamelessly self-promoting our shows here. Maybe if there's another Cigarman mega-DO, we can get Scott to hire us to play the party?! :cool:

I actually think that show along with "Modern Marvels" are exceedingly cool! If you catch the episode on laser vision correction, the surgeon is using my company's equipment.

BTW, we never got to connect to talk about utilizing ZFV without going to Philly.....would you still like information?

You're just looking at mainline. Add express into that and the number approaches 150. The crazy thing is that the real number is a lot higher. That was just in the previous three or so years. :rolleyes:

Why? Uhm. Parents live in a town that was only served by US and I went to school in a town that was dominated by US. Became elite in college and when I started traveling for work I liked the upgrades. Didn't realize how bad they actually were.

Finally :rolleyes: hit the fan and I learned about status matching and got the :rolleyes: out of dodge.

I've got over 200 USAir since 2001....they were my company's perferred carrier for years and our travel dept. would either book me out of PHL or with a change in CLT rather than a non-stop out of EWR. I eventually told them that for the same price (or even a little more), just give me the non-stop on CO and after some :rolleyes:, they finally relented.

I feel bad for the 4 folks that apparently got bumped from F to Y. They couldn't even swap in a 20 seat 738. Oh well, I appear safe up-front.

I know that xyzzy is part of the 'team' -- but not sure he is actually in charge of the CO part, or not!

Wait....are you talking about the *A Mega Do on 10/3? Your reply said "11/3" so I thought you meant a different one. We've already got a gig that night in Middlesex, NJ...but if they wanted us to entertain for a little while in the afternoon, I'm sure it could be arranged.

It's definitely 11/3 (see thread:http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/commu...-thru-6-a.html)

The CO reception is at the EWR PC from 3-6pm.


All times are GMT -6. The time now is 1:18 pm.
