You're assuming that there's enough left to warrant washing. I wanted about two inches on top - it's barely taller than my fingers are thick.

I've had the same thing done to me before. Fortunately when it has happened, my hair grows very quickly, so it hasn't taken long to fill back in.

I've been missing the box! :( Glad to be back!

Going to see Pam Ann tonight - should be great fun.

I'll never catch up in here but will be back in close to full participation mode :)

"Home" (as in, where I grew up) always makes CLE kind of nice - I actually don't think I've ever actually connected THROUGH it!

I have connected through CLE a couple of times, which was a strange experience, having used it as an O&D airport from ages 3 to 22.

I am sorry to hear this, but look on the bright side: at least you have hair (unlike some of the rest of us).

I'm booked on 10/22 EWR-SFO (B fare and 3rd on the UG list) at 11:28 AM booked in a non-reclining exit row and seatcounter shows the flight completely zeroed out.

The 8:45 EWR-SFO has 2 empties in F that (according to a non-elite reward search) seem available for a B-up.

On 10/23, the 7:00 AM EWR-SFO is showing 1 empty in F (on a 752).

I have to be in San Fran by about 2:00 on Friday to get to a meeting.

Would you stay on the 11:28 flight on 10/22 and hope for the possible VDB, change to the 8:45 and get a seat in F but get a few hours less sleep and no chance of a VDB, or hope the one seat on the 7:00 the next day stays open and change to that (getting to spend one more night in my own bed).

Any advice would be greatly appreciated...especially some crystal ball predictions about VDB possibilities on CO1702 on 10/22.

Thanks Box.

I would change to the 8:45; F > VDB in my book. You can always sleep on the plane. I am always worried about flying in somewhere the day of a meeting (though I do it all the time, primarily to minimize the number of nights I leave my wife solo with the kids).

Nice to see some old friends making re-appearances.

Sure! Come in here and taunt us. Over in the GLBT forum she has supposedly made an appearance as a FTer. Still wondering if that is her, missed her in Dallas last night. Was not happy about it but can't do everything. Let us know how it is!!
