Funny you mention the pyramids -- we did the same thing (we actually built a throne) out of 24 packs of Piels beer. At age 19, I had an account at beer distributor in college town (when NY drinking age was 19) and we had the 18 wheel truck back up to our dorm and unload our precious Piels (a distant cousin to Old Milwaukee)

Oh, my!:eek:

On other news, CO OPSC status-advanced me to Plat!;):cool:

There was a two-page discussion of brussels sprouts. Opinions were divided.

All this talk of cheap beer has reminded me of the store-brand stuff we would get at the nearby giant liquor store and occasionally drink in college (it was $6 a case). It was surprisingly not awful. The Mr. Tequila tequila was much worse.

My holiday video may not be happening. Besides accidently taping over some stuff, I'm still having technical issues. I'm about to gamble and run a big update to my software in hopes that it fixes the problem. The issues I don't think I have the drive space to install this update.

I'd need a 1 TB hardrive to get it to work with the default windoz software. Software upgrade did nothing. I think the video is dead for this year. :(

It's madness out on the roads right now. Everyone is trying to do their grocery shopping, weekend Chistmas shopping, or weekend travels right now. It's worse than rush hour right now.

It was terrible. We went to Shop Rite to get some stuff and it was :mad::rolleyes::mad::rolleyes:.

Woman at the local Italian joint tried to order a glass of white zin tonight. Technically her date tried to order it for her. Either way it was awkward.

And I think I figured out how to include images in the lounge guide I'm building so it is ready to go live. I still have several hundred lounges to add, but the basic content it pretty much there. Lots more to play with tomorrow.

Good Evening B:rolleyes:x:

It is a cold, rainy night here in the Republic of CLT. Just waiting for the "other shoe" to drop and the white stuff to commence a fallin'. Think I am about ready to mix some pomegranate juice and ultra cheap champagne. Ahhh da' good stuff.

Are you helping educate FAs on the concept of "neat"? I've been on that campaign since I joined FT.
