Yes. Did you get the crap scared out of you in the lobby that morning?

Yes of course.

That's really :rolleyes: if the 3G card is winning the race.

One day on the road, I was sick and stayed at the hotel. During the day, I was getting 80+KB/sec downloads. At night, it drops to 10-15KB/sec. They need a "chump-o-matic" filter.

Uploading at >125KB/sec on my data card now.

And the better question...did your roommate throw you under the bus just to see what I would do? She did see me coming.

I'm just looking forward to abusing United routing rules over the next year to rack up EQS and new lines.

If only such abuse was possible out of PHL. The few times I have tried to search multi-segment UA itineraries on ITA I have gotten exorbitant pricing back.

UA is rather kind price-wise out of MSP, and going west I can double connect in my choice of ORD/DEN/LAX/SFO (and add cities in between said hubs), going East I can grab ORD/IAD and a city in between.

Of course, some of those are via cities like LNK that would look nice for a line, but are on CRJ-200s :rolleyes:

Wirelessly posted (BlackBerry9630/4.7.1.40 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 VendorID/105)

Was in Stamford, CT for drinks tonight with a bunch of former co-workers. Good times. It was the first time that I was the guy looking at a train schedule to get home. That was strange.

I'm guessing I have something like 40-50 new lines this year but I'm not positive. Does it count as new if it is directional (e.g. LAX-JFK if I've previously flown JFK-LAX)? Methinks not.
