Though it does seem others can't sleep ether (I've been out of bed for 40 minutes at this point) People are shown as being on line on facebook. My neighbors have driven away and come back so who knows.

Might do a early morning PWP before finding my missing pillow, straighting out my tangle of sheets and blankets, and trying to sleep again. :rolleyes:

Good luck, tomorrow! ^

Good morning, Box. I've just been catching up on the 7-8 pages of posts from last night and sfogate's steady, determined, and unyielding march to 95,000. Congrat's baglady! LOL

I'm guessing (for the same reasons) the second might be the Navy sub watchers, who would be out over 12 hours. No, they could move around. Don't know.

Now back to the conclusion of "French Kiss" (which was in the DVD player due to the concierge dialog extraction earlier today).

You mentioned them yourself in your other post. Both U-2 jocks and SR-71 crews were big fans of steak and eggs.

Our GA is a rotund woman with close-cropped blond hair...who told black women that blond works, especially when it's mowed lower than the greens at Augusta during Masters week.

She looks like the one that administers the prison economy by controlling the prisonwide flow of cigarettes. :eek:

Hey, Box. Had an awesome time in Houston at the mini-Do last night. Good to see many familiar faces and meet some new ones. Some :rolleyes: associated with the hotel room and the rain but I'll save that for another post when I'm back on the ground again. We're boarding now. Time to go jetting!

Good morning B:-:x!

The return flight (1716) was leaving at 12:06. By the time I got off the plane and looked over at gate 34 - the agent waved and guessed who I was. She was holding my F seat.

Turn out someone else was doing the same thing - and they waited for him. Turns out he was seated next to me in 2F. I do not see IAH being as accommodating as the great SFO staff.

Tell them - we love them - they are the best at SFO.

More than an hour with no posts here. Unheard of. :confused:

BTW, I see that itsaboutthejourney has poked his face in here. I guess that if he does not need to do many trips back to MSP that he is considering *A instead of SkyTeam. If I used LAX as he does, that certainly would be a consideration for me.

What would a situation be where resting one's hoohoo on the table would be appropriate? I'm asking for......uhhh.....a friend.....yeah....a friend.

Good morning Box.

My chest/head cold is officially about 95% gone and didn't get in the way of last night's gig.

sfogate, I enjoyed reading your solo-posting-show on the road to 95K.....sorry you didn't get it :(

baglady, congrats on the milestone! :D ^

CM, sorry about your hotel woes.....that's why I dropped HHonors...they don't give a rat's a$$ about their diamond members.....a gold isn't going to get anything at all.

Olton Hall, good luck on your interview tomorrow.....get a good night's sleep tonight....it'll help!

Good morning from Sonoma, box. Quite lovely here. Dergon_gf still sleeping but I am enjoying the "nerd's sunrise" .... ((that's watching the sun come up but only from a location were you can still have wi-fi access and a power port ))
