However one of the bites I got was crab cakes and I don't think they were cooked all the way as I was up all night with food poisoning symptoms, no fun. Should I call Morton's and let them know or just let it go? I will probably never step foot in a Morton's again.

:rolleyes: bad reason to never step in a morton's again.

I think you should demand compensation from jrzyshawn. :D

I just called and YES, someone else has let them know they got food poisoning from the crab cakes as well. Manager said he would call me back in a few hour after he called the other people back to see what else they ate. :mad:

Wow. That's a startling admission from the MOD.

If you get a GC, I'll gladly take it off your hands. :D

You're correct. My fare to the UK last year a/i was the same as base fare for this year. :rolleyes:

PRG is $710 :( If it was less than $450 I'd have gone.

My plan for the evening.
  • Escape through the back door at work in about 2 min.
  • Go to the gym
  • Get my hair cut
  • Donate blood
  • Go home, drink an Ommegang 3 Philosophers
  • Momentarily forget that I donated blood earlier in the day, which is why 24oz. of 8% beer obliterated me
  • Pass out

hello box
The new Burj Dubai is ridiculous, it looks like it was digitally inserted by Dreamworks.

Yeah I flew in from BKK last night.

Luxor airport is pleasantly modern. Free WIFi (wasn't working earlier but is now). No lounge but I received an invitation to such which was valid for a free drink at the cafe (no booze available in the building). A few outlets scattered around, too.

The clock starts now on the truly crazy part of the itinerary. LUX-CAI-IST-JFK-BCN over about 36 hours. Yikes!

Best of luck with the transfer at JFK! TK1 isn't due in to JFK until about 5:30p today. :eek:

Does anyone have experience with transfers at HAM? Is 1:45 enough for CO to OK?

It looks like both are in Terminal 1, so I'm guessing it would be plenty...

Good reason to stay within the Box.
