Yeah, we got a later start home than I anticipated on Friday and, well, I was a tag overserved on Friday night, so Saturday was not really a sociable day for me. :cool:

BA believes themselves to be a part of the British aristocracy, and therefore in their eyes they are immune from punishment.

I'm looking at flights to Norway next year. Options being considered are IAH-FRA-OSL or IAH-LHR-OSL. Any difference connecting in London vs. Frankfurt? :confused:

Why transit LHR if you have an option not to?

Morning, Box. Fun day of errands and driving await me today. :rolleyes:

The joy of being at a party with gentlemen who own several popular bars in town and are personal friends with the Groth family.

+1. While I didn't have nearly as many issues as belynch has had, I realized pretty quickly that I wasn't going to find an agent that could fix my problem. I emailed CO Insider and he resolved the issue (for good) within a few days.

Am I the only one who thinks that the "holiday season" has been completely dissolved by advertising and marketing that is totally out of season and out of place? When I was a kid, "the holidays" started on Black Friday and ended on Three Kings Day. Now, Halloween preparation starts in July, Thanksgiving in August, and Christmas seems to be nearly year-round. Yeggggh.

The only parts of the "holiday season" are the holiday itself and the release of GLBC Christmas Ale. I am so over the rest of it...
