The secondary sucks. He knows this. The best chance the Pats have had to win this game was to go for it and keep pace offensively with the Saints.

I have a book of all the things I never learned in German class. I never took German. As a result, I can only say things that should never be said.

I have numerous adaptors that fall out of laptop cases and jackets from time-to-time.

My account shows 15k more now as well.

I found details on the spend bonus on a blog talking about the SPG AMEX:


Cardholders can then earn an additional 15,000 Starpoints when they spend $15,000 in 6 months.
I don't remember seeing this when I applied for the card, but I will definitely take it! :)

I have a feeling we'll see more in-flight fees starting/increasing now that CO runs a cashless cabin. $1 (headphones) and $5 (drinks) are easier when it comes to exact change, but increases to $3 and $7 (?) won't be an issue when paying by CC. I'm sure they'll start selling pillows and/or blankets after flu season is over (since they kind of used H1N1 as an excuse to stop providing them).

If that is the case then my beverage coupons will become worth more then.

I may have mentioned this a few weeks ago but Chase sent a letter saying that they were grateful for me using their CC and they wanted to thank me with a coupon for use in flight. No coupon was in the letter so I called and they said a coupon would come. A coupon came in the mail on saturday and it was odd. it is the first Adult beverage coupon that I have ever had that came with an expiration date. Guess I will need to make sure to drink an adult beverage within the next 18 months!

I feel badly for the Pats sub QB. He just got abused by the Saints D with no real potential up-side to the appearance.

Interesting. Some of the blog comments over at Weather Underground (by reasonably informed weather/meteo-geeks) showing an increasing possibility of a significant Gulf-Coast snowstorm taking place. Latest GFS model showing possible 6-8" snow accumulations near Houston within a 114-hour time-frame. :eek:
