FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

It's true. Watch the old episodes and you will notice that whenever Dr. Smith wants to go "conduct experiments" or something that involves being on the planetary surface, he always goes alone but drops hints that Will should come with him. He wants nothing more than to be alone with the young boy. The Dr. Smith character was a closeted pedo, just like Scrappy-Doo was really the love child of Scooby and Velma.

I once had a young lady say she "would help me when she felt like it" at a fast food restaurant. Her employment with that establishment didn't continue; that particular lunch happened to be one of the clients I was secret-shopping that day ...

Then they could wait until I get my order out. Whether or not I want cheese on something doesn't really matter until the order taker knows what the order is.

I can refer you to someone who frequents the box regularly, and is very reasonable....... :D:D:D

I have my first appointment tomorrow. Haven't tried to fix the loose screws for a variety of reasons, and I found a free service that is in part subsidized by grants and a local church. The church pays part of the bill but does not attach dogma to the therapy, which is why I chose to do it.

Instead, I am merely passive aggressive, and make sure to say my please and thank you's very loud and pointed so that they get the message.

Plus1! My mother was very pleased that when she dropped BL JR off/picked her up the past few days BL JR introduced her to the new ladies her helped her (the teachers at the pick up/drop off line). My mom said she always knew whom she had not been introduced to. She would always say "I'd like you to meet my grandma. Grandma, this is such and such". Now she should have introduced grandma first and sometimes she did (we're working on that) but at least she did introductions!

This is the only way to do that trip. That bus ride is one of the most fascinating things that you can do in South America. Do not miss it.

Books about grilling yummy animals and vegetables are always appreciated.

That hotel kept coming up in my search for cheap options - parking is $17 a day though (not familiar with the transit opportunities or if Hilton charges elites).

After the January NYC CO DO in 2007, I discovered that when returning to the Newark area it is better to stay at the Hilton near the Newark Penn station. subway doesnt go to the airport at 3 am.

My pet peeve is when the person taking my order at Burger King interrupts me to ask if I would like cheese on that. The least they could do is wait til I'm done to ask if I would like cheese. If I'm having the order my way right away, I will order the damn burger my way. I've been in a bad mood and been interrupted at a drive thru only to just drive away after screaming at the voice in the box. I might have unresolved anger.

I actually think this has more to do with the register systems. I have this same question at Whataburger. I think that they must ring in the burger order a certain way.
