In my first trip to SFO tomorrow (finally), the Bay Bridge will be closed *AND* I won't get to see SFOGate... what a shame!

You don't want cake like at the wedding I went to Saturday... a layer of (dry) chocolate and a layer of banana with raspberry frosting. I couldn't wait to get out of there and have some Butterscotch Krimpets.

Having flown a bit on DL the last few months, I can completely agree.

Agreed, though that doesn't say too much. I would argue for "standard F" as services such as PS are much nicer.

I believe DE is the one with the free one. I had one for a while and finally got a NJ one as the discounts saved me more than $1 month. Still annoys me to pay the fee, but i relented.

I think I found the only valid use of Twitter (foul language ahoy!).

Night, Box.

DE charges $25 for the transponder, but no mthly/annual fees -- so I guess ya just have to pay, one way or another!:rolleyes:

I think I've just seen the first use of Twitter that I actually like.:-: And the user name reminded me of a woman I passed hiking today. She was near the side of a trail with a friend when she screamed "SH@:-)T!! SNAKE!!! " Both her friend and I jumped - from the scream, not the 12" garter snake. She continued, "I'm used to rattle snakes, at least they tell you where they are." :eek:

The Key West joint we got ours at does ship them. They pack them in dry ice and overnight them. I found the cost prohibitive so I didn't do it. :p:rolleyes:, but I do try to find one when I'm in FL. :D:-:

I'll be in Baggage Service on Wednesday night. I am going to get a refresher course in how to creatively tell the truth. ;) Finding the bags are easy, it's all the computer entries that's hard for the paper trail of who we get to blame for the "delayed" bag.

Had to turn down a bump again tonight. There was one more flight to MSY tonight after mine, which was oversold too, and DL wouldn't book anyone onto it. BTR was also sold out, and the only option for either one tomorrow morning would get me here way too late. So I had to pass and take the flight because of my work schedule.

I'll continue to laugh as I pass :p Really, you have no idea how much time you're wasting!
