FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

Got my flu shot this morning at ORD. It's really great that so many airports have kiosks set up to do this right now, since it saves me driving someplace in Atlanta to have it done. Took less than 10 minutes, start to finish, and the receipt was in my BlackBerry's e-mail inbox before she had the needle in my arm.

It seems nature gave me its own flu shot. :rolleyes:

I find it humorous that the British refer to hunting as, "stalking."

No fun. That's what I'm hoping to avoid this year.

Thanks to a coworker seeing my Facebook status, I just found out my employer will reimburse the $35 cost. That's even better.

Couldn't society just have drawn the line at Goldendoodles? :rolleyes:

Would anyone be interested in a CLE Cuisine event, similar to the wine dinner I hosted? I am thinking of something fun that includes the establishments of an Iron Chef, a Beard finalist and perhaps a return to Fahrenheit.

Thoughts?

Their much more precise form of English is fun to read sometimes. I love how at airshows they are called "flypasts". Well, yes, technically that is more accurate. Mark Twain said the the difference between the right word and the almost-right word is like the difference between lightning and lightning bug. :-: :D

It was not all that bad, but I am certainly glad I got it out of the way,

for that strain....you can get a shot and still get another strain, shots don't make much sense to me.

The last time I got the flu was from an Asian baby coughing on me when his parents sat him on my Front Desk station.

Luckily this strain was not too intense, though the tagalong GI bug was a bit of a surprise.

There have been a couple years where it took me down for the count and I could barely get out of bed.

Great dawgs though. My parents recently adopted one and he is both fun and smart, without the hair issues of my current foot warmer.
