My partner has that bag. I think it's pretty nice, although after traveling with it the last three weeks for work (my similarly sized Briggs and Riley bag had a wheel break), I've got one big complaint about it. The Delsey is designed in a way that shifts much of the weight in the bag too far forward when it is standing upright. It has a very narrow base when it is on its wheels, and it has a tendency to fall forward onto its face when you have it standing on the wheels and let go of the handle. If you carry a computer bag on top of it, slid over the pull handle, you better hold onto the bag at all times or it will go crashing to the floor the moment you let go. It's enough of an annoyance to keep me from liking it as an every week travel bag, and it makes me want to hurry up and get my bag in for repair. Granted, the Delsey fits in overhead bins with a lot less :rolleyes: than my Briggs and Riley, but at least I don't have to do things like hold onto the bag while in an airport restroom to keep it from falling over on the nasty floor while I'm trying to do my business.

How tourists are supposed to arrive is not of concern...Atlantic City does not feel the need to use innovative marketing ideas. Innovative marketing ideas would require empowering the middle management to be creative and spend money, and that Is Not Possible there due to the long history of poor employee treatment which has in turn created a shocking amount of poor non-union labor relations. Dealers, valet parkers, and front desk agents are starting to hold drives and join the UAW because management doesn't give a care whatsoever about their frontline people.

"OK, thanks. Have a good day." Hang up, hit redial, ask again. I've had to do that before myself.

I had a similar issue because we were on separate PNRs. We had to wait until check in to change her seat.

I think the average ACY resident either has no spatial skills or is completely shell-shocked from snow. Driving skills are also lacking.

The average Atlantic City resident only having those problems would be a high achiever. 1 in 40 that live in the city limits have teh HIV. :eek:

CO is not playing nice with my last two EUAs of 2009.

If anyone is in ACY, I just restocked with mussels, shrimp, chicken, spinach, soup, potatoes, etc.

If I were home this week I'd be your tour guide. Unlike Philadelphia, I actually know that area very well and could impart lots of interesting useless information.

I have a few more flights to take before the end of the year, but they will go to BMI, I can't pass up 625%, so CO MM will take a little bit longer.

It's definitely 'hit or miss' at outlets/discount stores!;)
