My schedule is open in the mornings. ;)

It is hard to tell just how much the news outlets are looking to play up the idiocy of the TSA versus the "think of the children" drivel. That is actually an interesting study of sorts.

And without the decency to share the original source. :td:

They do link back to the WaPo which links to me after the jump so I guess it isn't all bad.

probably wouldn't be a bad idea to carry some personal nitrile gloves as well

Wow, that's just harsh.

So, who's traveling with sbm12 to PRG? :D

Not it!

G'Mornin' B:rolleyes:X!

Oh...crystal ball -- is there any chance of a VDB on 1427 (IAH-ONT) t'morrow?! I see that Y is full! Also I'm not appearing on any EUA lists for that flight or 311 t'morrow!:confused: I am such a newbie w/all this!:(:rolleyes:

This is turning into purely a DEQM op -- my aunt (in LA) has a broken pelvis & can't see anyone!:eek: Also, brother is now going to SAN -- not LAX -- so won't see him!:rolleyes:

Am still going to take advantage of the 2nt stay @ aloft -Rancho Cucamonga that I won in their contest.:D Have dinner lined up w/a HS classmate though!^

Does this mean that the next round of idiotcy the TSA implements can be blamed on sbm12?

Why don't you try contacting them and make it easy for them to find you.

Nice. I'm headed to YUL today and then to SAN on Friday to thaw out. :D

It seems to lean towards the "think of the children" angle as that equates to better ratings.

It's hard to tell from day time TV news but the story may have been bumped from the radar, well at least here in the US, because of news on health care non-reform, the weather in the midwest, and another jobs summit at the white house this afternoon. I'm sure Tiger Woods is greatful for the SOP story but it seems HLN is back to covering that 24/7

If you are checked in, you can check your position on PDA.continental.com. That should show your position on the upgrade standby list.

My crystal ball is showing f9 and Y6, so your chances of a VDB are slim.

Yeah, that was all over HLN while I was in PHX yesterday. Apparently constipation is a worldwide news story depending on the amount of $hit you are dealing with.
