How about this - I know I have a non-broken 512k (as it's in my camera right now).

I'd do that too, if the upgrade was available.

Very nice. I'd want one of those if I ever get back into coin.

A few icurhere2 rules:

A. More that 4 hours in Y requires an upgrade (ZRH was an exception because the cost was screaming "low" out of BNA),
B. These long flights don't get booked unless an upgrade is available then,
C. Miles (no matter how copious) are only used at the lowest possible level.

I would prefer to pay less than discount coach for refundable F fares. I've had a surprisingly good success rate, so far. :D

I have a Kodak CX4200 from 2002 and it's craptastic. The 512k card was a massive upgrade.

That's one way to get to Spokane, Washington. :p

I’ve just been reminded by one of my buds on Twitter that it is 15 minutes to beer o’clock. ^

Woodford Reserve is a good friend of mine.

Have I mentioned I'm officially on vacation until October 12?

I have a couple of non-broken 16MB SD cards that came with the cameras I own. They're pretty much worthless, but I hold onto them just in case. And, they're good to include with the camera once I've replaced it and am selling the old camera on eBay.

And we've started our descent, so I need to shut down ...

The credit card company thinks I've spent it.

So I just got the Million Mile sweepstakes email. I don't want to go to LAS, but I notice the obligatory "No purchase necessary..." disclaimer, and, bored, decide to follow that where it leads, to see how hard it is to enter without buying anything. Well, it leads nowhere. On covacations, there is a reference to the promotion, and the promotion page says to go to covacations for the official rules. Still haven't found any link to the official rules, but, in the interest of legal interstate commerce, I'm not done with this just yet. Besides, it's raining and I'm not going out feed the dogs in the rain.
