Yes. There are no hottie senators. However, Dennis Kucinich's wife (Elizabeth) is hot, and has an English accent, to boot...
Surprisingly, not all politicians have wives that could double as proletarian hausfraus in early Soviet propaganda films. http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/200...OS_468x839.jpg |

I thought about your Garmin when this happened.
He's also lost the keys to the car while traveling — TWICE. Well, the first time it was his sister who lost the key to his car when they went to Hawaii a few years ago together. Last fall he lost the other key to his car while on a business trip to Las Vegas. That one also involved the loss of a key to my car, as the lost key ring had both on it.

Hey, I resent that comment. I use a lanyard for my reading glasses at work and I'm not 60 yet. :D
After tonight I might also be using it as a garrote on my infamous co-worker.

Why not wheats? I love 'em, especially if they're done well. Hoegaarden is a great hot summer day beer.
Maybe I'm a bad beer critic though, I like Lone Star and Tecate.

I feel like I robbed CO. Last year I spent a cool $10k for a mixture of work and pleasure travel and almost made Gold.

I'd take a plastic cup over the tiny glasses KE uses... I felt like taking the whole tray of champagne when they came around to serve pre-flight drinks.

For about 5 or 6 years in a row, I made plat with segments and spent around $20K each year. And with that, I'm still over 250,000 miles away from lifetime silver :(

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.

While this is true, there are some of us who cannot function without decongestants in our allergy medicine.
I have a history of extreme allergies, with the doctors telling my mom that I'd probably have to be fed intravenously and monitored for years. Being a kid I eventually grew out of most of the allergies but I am still highly sensitive to allergen fluctuations. Without a decongestant being used at least intermittently, my day will go by in a fog with my head in a vice.

My sister now uses Coricidin HBP, which she says is not as good as a regular decongestant, but is better than nothing and does not affect her blood pressure.

One can cross Storz (like when I went from Eppley to Nebraska Furniture Mart) without going "through" Iowa. ;)
And "accidentally going through an abnormality that's technically Iowa without knowing it" probably means they didn't engage in some intentional activity there. |

That's borderline in my scheme. Snack in a rest stop would count while just using the bathroom wouldn't. Like I said, my rules are very fickle.

Time to test the "garden hose in sewer line" hypothesis.
h0 = pipe blockage is within 8 feet of bathroom junction This may be depressingly easy to falsify.

The only reason I've been to Nebraska was I had to go to Lincoln for work back in 2001. I spent about 24 hours there. |

Or I could just tell him we're going on a roadtrip that has to swing through Iowa so I can say I've been there. |

In other news, the San Diego chargers defense stayed at home tonight, and it shows. :mad: I'm not even finishing the game because it is so :rolleyes:. Night, box. |
