Well I can tell you that it didn't work for me in Japan. I managed to pee on my foot, while using a traditional hole in the floor toilet, and all I did was slip. :rolleyes:

There's the list for you; don't know if any of them would get you excited. I only see one that excites me, and driving up from Haddon Heights for that one job that I'm not explicitly qualified for (technical writing for the FAA) is not worth my time, nor is it worth canceling my planned lunch with Phudnik.

The pit boss must have given you quite the nice rating.

I can say with pride, that has never happened to me. :D

Note to self - no orders from Crate & Barrel.

You don't have to order from them. The catalogs just show up. I believe we got the same 4 that sdm1130 did. Yesterday the entirety of our mail was 4 catalogs, all addressed to my wife. Two of them were yoga-related thanks to her actually giving her real address when going to a new studio which then sold the address to the marketers. :mad:

Times are tough in ACY when I'm the type they want to try to recruit (from TN).

Their core markets (PA, DE, NY, OH) have been compromised by NY and PA gaming.

Glee was on for a few minutes in the background. I feel even more daft than ordinary now.

People in TN fly to LAS. Or drive to Tunica, Evansville, Metropolis, etc.

It might get worse. PA has a bill that passed today about allowing table games.

No kidding.

I may have my own weather drama tomorrow. Forecast for my connection time at IAD tomorrow evening looks like it could be nasty, and ATL might still be seeing some snow around the time I'm due to arrive there.

Once again we are passing through the same airport ut at different times. I am out y 6:30 am.

WOW. Hmmm... I have water bottles in my car in SAT.

Doesn't a well-designed plan coming together feel great? My MRs seem to always generate the VDB opportunity on the very last segment (e.g. MEM-BNA), so I'm acutely aware of the cost of one-way minivan rentals :p

This wasnt even planned. I mean who oversells on a wednesday afternoon?

I think my wife is getting a promotion, too, though she's not exactly sure what it is. Three different people told her three different things.

Congrats to Mrs. SBM12, Baglady, and all others on the promotions.


I thought I would come over to the IAD UA RCC. Got the standard guestion "Can I see a BP?" I was like I dont have to show one to get in as I am a PC agent. He didnt seem all that happy. He then said, I was asking to see if you needed drink coupons for being in business. Ok if that is the case, why not just say "Are you flying international business?" Is it just me or does that just seem to easy. Then I come back to the lounge and the bar tender is serving drinks and talking on the phone. WOW!!

Ok, I am off to my hotel. No more IAD for tonight!!

Not our role to ask "why?" - our role is to ask "thank you, may I have another?"

I work with someone who had the same problem. I will ask him what he did to stop it when I work at midnight. I will let you know.
