You appear to be correct - I even made a point of cleaning up Pyrex and washing dishes.

Congrats Steph3n! I guess I'll have to settle for 2nd place with the 100,000th reply.

I stumbled in and drunk posted "1k" (ok not really, not had anything to drink at all, need to get some OJ in fact)

I got it once, DEN-EWR. Rebooked on the way to the airport from my original routing (weather delays in IAH) and went from S on the old flight to M on the new one. Jumped the entire line...and there was ONE seat to give away at battlefield. It was awesome. :D

Nothing, though, compares to one time when I was living in New Haven and decided to head to NYC to go out for the night, basically on a whim - and <10 minutes later, I was in a cab that couldn't zoom too fast, got to the train station, sprinted to the platform, and made it with <60 sec to spare. I swear my heart didn't stop racing until at least 3/4 of the way to GCS.

Well, they ensued when you got out of BTR anyway. ;)

Ha ha. ...and somehow, I keep going back (just to say hi and eat some crawfish, mostly, and yes they probably came off the back of a truck, LOL)...

Our fearless leader and "Drunk Poster General" would be proud.
