Not surprised...delta.com and nwa.com have both been rather :rolleyes: for me of late. Had to call Chisholm to ticket something the other day because nwa.com wasn't playing nice with my $300 VDB voucher.

I think the surprise for me was the level (or lack thereof) that USC played at this year...I did not foresee a last month of the season like that.

Boston Colllege could be a good bet for Saturday. Coach Pete lost too many strong assistants this year, and it shows, particularly in the discipline of the team (academic issues, etc.).

Westfield and Marlton are the others in NJ that I know of.

Also, in Millburn & Florham Park.^

I would have strongly considered taking BC at the opening line of -9. Not so sure about -7 though...especially for a Northeast team playing in California, which should be a virtual home game for USC.

So basically, if you want a TJ with alcohol in NJ, live within 10 minutes of Summit.

Evening, box! We've had a mini Christmas celebration for stuff we didn't want to haul out west. It's been way fun and Plus1 did well with a little blue box ;)

Working on packing (for three trips and two weeks; I have five bags packed with at least another two to go and that doesn't include anything that belongs to Plus1) so that puts us to 8, plus a booster seat. If we weren't elite, what would we do? Ship UPS I guess! ;)

A very Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it; and to others, Happy Holidays!!!! I *HEART* the box!

Should I make the tart or not? Hmmm? Can't quite decide. I already have cookies, mince pies, Christmas Pudding and Brandy sauce and English Custard ready for xmas day. Do I really need a lemon-vanilla tart? There are only going to be 8 of us this year ...

Wow -- your house sounds like the place to be for dinner -- on xmas!;)^
