I wonder if they would load the 440z Big Gulp style cups for these events?

:D

Oh yeah, I need to check that out...

I'm more excited about seeing The Office season premiere in HD. ^

I stimulated the economy with a 46" Samsung LED LCD - the picture color and quality is absolutely stunning! I can't wait until tonight's Yankee game. :D

You buy a really nice TV then watch the Yankees. FAIL. Go Boston. :p

On SEA-CLE the FA didn't even bat an eye when I ordered the 8 am bloody marry. That's professionalism.

Yeah...that was great. They half filled my thimble with my selection and I was done in a sip, roughly about thte time the guy turned away to the next row. I should've just kept pressing the call button to get more until they figured it out, but I didn't. I slept instead. And then I ordered a rum & ginger ale and ended up with guava juice & ginger ale. It was not a good experience for me, to say the least.

Bloody Marys are intended to be breakfast drinks. My order of a pre-flight Pomegranate Martini on Sunday at 08:30am resulted in a raised eyebrow from the US FA.

Is there anything worth doing in Baltimore for a day or two? The fiancee is there Monday thru Thursday and has told me that I'm welcome to join her. She has work stuff during the day and I'd be left on my own but have a free hotel.

Yeah, that would be annoying to me as well. We really enjoyed our service on HKG-ICN, even with the old school seats on the A330. Can not say much for the second leg to NRT as we took full advantage of the pod seats and slept most of the time, mostly due to the great service on the first leg. :)

Well, Ms. GadFly convinced me to extend our car and hotel an extra day and change the flights so we can have an extra day of Anaheim fun. Her ticket was a reward so the change was free but I had to pay $25 for mine....just half-a-month too early for the new policy.

At least the EUA chances on the way home tomorrow (1890 & 1676) are better than they were today.

Off to do something touristy......Later Box.

Are the Orioles in town? Heck, just enjoy the Inner Harbor or take the light rail to BWI for some spotting.

Yes, I hate the small KE glasses. They use them for water, as well. I would always take two glasses of champagne, two glasses of water, and a glass of juice during pre-departure service, and the FA's would act surprised.
