Looks like DEQMs just dropped for this past week's travel. I'm now at 60K EQMs in the past 2 weeks. Only need 11,800 and change for MM now. :D

Good night, box.

We have the WORST grocery stores here in NJ. Truly! They are a disgrace compared with the stores I see in Texas.

Sounds like we might have to have a "Let's vist BagHQ DO" to visit the Kroger!

Have you been to Wegmans?!?!? I have yet to find something that beats it, well the Whole Foods in Kensington, but that's a different beast.

Even some of the Shop-Rites in NJ are great. Though some are pretty awful.

It's going to feel like sh!t up there for about 5-10 minutes as you cross. Just grow a pair and hold on tight and deal with it. You're all big boys and girls. Once you cross over it's fine. It doesn't matter if you cross at 20 or 30 or 40. It sucks no matter what."

That's classic. Which center was it? That sounds like something the NYC guys would say, i've heard them say some pretty funny stuff over the years.

Fun times.

A few years ago I was in Austin at SxSW in the Radisson. (Don't ask).

It was 2am, i was sharing a room and my friend was in his bed reading and i was in my bed reading. We're sitting there and I feel like my bed is moving, I look over and see him moving as well. I look at the rest of the room thinking I may be in an earthquake, nothing. This goes on for a few minutes and I'm puzzled. And then the noise started and boy were they loud.

They easily went for two hours. The next morning I was ready to wait outside their door and clap, but alas I had to get to a movie.

Back when I was traveling more, I would do 120+ nights a year (I was Marriott Platinum and Hilton Diamond at the same time for years), and through all that, I've never had someone in the next room audibly knockin' boots.

CM, thanks for putting together the milestone summary....very cool ^ (even though I only have one and it's right at the end of the list).

Brituchenite, sorry your trip is :rolleyes: (I got your e-mail....just haven't had time to reply yet). I totally agree what you said about post count vs. friend count. @:-)

"Do you have friends in France?? You know frieeeeeend" :D

I love being on West Coast time. It gives me time to read The Box while everyone is asleep.

We won the football game 42-0. My son was put into the game a few times and he would have been thrown a pass if the quarterback hadn't been sacked. The defense scored a few times. Love those interceptions and blocked kicks for a run back.
