I am finally eligible to get the H1N1 shot. Of course, I missed my window of opportunity today; but come Friday, I am golden. Unless I get the thing before then.

Good morning box.

Good Morning Box:

Greetings from JFK T4 waiting for the bus to T2. Folks here are "JFK Friendly". It feels like waiting for a moonbuggy at IAD.LOL

What a night, can't sleep past 6am seems these days. Body wakes up and won't let me go back to sleep.

I did not know about FYAD until today, which was probably a net positive. Thanks for helping lower the common denominator just a bit more, Box. :-:

Welcome. :) Really though, there are many other great sections of the SA Forums, but I simply avoid FYAD (and BYOB) and GBS and...yeah.

An admirable skill. :-:

Like I said, I wouldn't wish FYAD on anyone but a few people. I went in there once, and I felt like I needed to sanitize my brain after a couple minutes.

At least she won't have a smoke detector keeping her up tonight :mad::D

Best wishes to BL Jr. for a speedy recovery.

Morning, Box.

bdjohns1 Nov 18, 2009 6:12 am

I forgot. Good morning, Box.

BL: Hope BL Jr is feeling better.

I'm having to cut the week's trip short because my daughter's running a 102 fever and my wife can't skip out of her work obligations. So, I get to experience the Wednesday RIC-ORD flight for a change.

Greetings aus Deutschland. The (newish) LH arrivals lounge at FRA is very nice, featuring a Senator-lounge-like spread and electronically booked shower rooms.

A big +1; DL's service to Europe isn't bad but I'd rather do the 3-hour Amtrak-LIRR-AirTrain trip than take the RJ home.

GTITAN Nov 18, 2009 6:24 am

Well the operation of boarding onto the DL RJs in T2 Gate 25 is akin to but perhaps more chaotic than the UA Express Craptastic Experience that is IAD in Terminal A. What we have here is DL proving how "special" it really is. I believe icuhere2 has warned but let me echo, I would not suggest anyone subjecting themselves to this voluntarilly.

Yes - but then was away for the weekend at an energy-healing wksp!^ House is still a mess -- need to really unpack now!:rolleyes:

Agreed -- I like describing myself as 'frugal'!:-:

I'd be game for DP, as well!!^

G'Mornin', B:rolleyes:X! Will try not to multi-quote so much!:rolleyes:

Steph3n Nov 18, 2009 6:33 am

All this talk of RJ farms, they breed ERJs at IAH Term B, I have to go through there on the way from A(Saab breeding location) to the train to C(where the planes go when they grow up) to D(where the big planes live) and E(a mix of all mainline)

btw we are saying farm, should it not be ranch? RJ Ranch.

Lots of healing energy to BLjr & lots of 'good mommy' thoughts to you!:-: Hope everyone is feeling better this morning! Good luck at the docs!^

Been thinking of you -- my day yesterday was the most 'drama'-filled day I've had in a long time!:eek: Ended up being 'stalked' via LinkedIn & my e-mail by new beau's ex-GF!! :rolleyes: She is certifiably nuts & has no idea that she is dealing w/a 'goddess' here! :D I finally deleted her as a 'connection'!
