Blackberrys seem to do it automagically. It keeps all the quotes in the reply.

Once again, welcome aboard Continental Airlines. We be airborne, shortly.

I gave the pilot a try when it first aired and loved it (plus the OCD school counselor is really cute). It's on my DVR list too. My only complaint is that the use of auto-tune for the vocals is both blatant and obvious.....I think the show would be better if the singing weren't so clean and polished.

By the way....talk like a pirare day rocks...especially Plus1's safety briefing. Just watch out you don't hurt anyone when over-gesturing with your hook-hand :p

Here's today's old pirate joke care-of Robot Chicken: http://www.adultswim.com/video/?epis...f03029fb311d74

As I slide further and further down the upgrade list for CLE-SFO, I have decided to roll the dice and check at 00:01 to see what kind of whacked out routing I can get with Same Day Change.

I'm checked into my flight to IAH and I am number 19 on the stand by listing and sliding further down. No way I'll see F but atleast I have a window seat, in a reclining row, on a DirecTV flight. I'll use most of my per diem paying to watch it! :rolleyes: My per diem is very small: $28 :rolleyes: but I do get paid to fly.

Wouldn't that be fun!

Just SFO-IAH-SFO. The most direct and boringest route, in Y. No miles for me. I can't even get free DirecTV since we don't have those special cards that the other airlines FAs have.
