I'm just off to a conference for networking purposes. It's all about highway safety. To keep myself occupied I'm one of two photographers. I get to attend free and get free meals by doing that. The paid photographer is doing the awards ceremony and I get to do the rest. Playing photographer should keep me awake and allow me to wander between the different sessions if I hate one.

AA has dropped ORD-DME, even though S7 is supposedly joining OneWorld.

Good morning, Box.

aloha box. Atlantic City is living up to its :rolleyes: reputation.

In other news, with all of this balloon boy coverage all I keep thinking is: thank God they found balloon boy, I was afraid that Michael Jackson was ordering take out from heaven.

G'morning, Box. Was out drinking last night with a bunch of jetBlue folks (customers and employees) at a bar around the corner from my house. Good times, though the mild headache this morning is a reminder that I really am not as young as I used to be. Or at least that next time I should eat dinner. :eek:

Took me a second, but that's awesome. ^

Morning, Box.

Let's see if I get thru today without a nap. My Magic 8-Ball says DOUBTFUL. :rolleyes:

I just listened to "What is a hangover?" from HowStuffWorks, and apparently the post-drinking headache is literally caused by the brain shrinking.

Now if only I had stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night...

Good morning, Box. Couple inches of snow on the ground here in DEN this morning.

Morning Box!

Morning Box,

After suffering years of abuse at the hands of US, I finally quit telling myself that they hurt me because they loved me and got out of that relationship for good.

Now they are rolling out free drinks in the clubs, better drinks on board, cleaner planes, better on-time rates, and what appears to be 100% earning opportunities for OnePass members. I feel like I ran into an old girlfriend who got a makeover and a new set of cans. I'm tempted to re-visit for the occasional one night stand, but will I get hurt again?

We are gentle on newbies. We only kindly ask that The Box be read from the beginning. We could ask for a research paper. :D

Direct address is not a faux pas. When someone has a question, often you will see "WWTBD?"

Jump right in; the water's always warm. :)

I never had the deep relationship with US that some Boxers have had, but I do have experience with how awful they once were. From most recent reports out there, they do seem to be turning somewhat of a corner.

I always try to drink plenty of water as it helps eliminates my headaches. So far so good!
