I just had the pleasure of driving my partner to the MARTA station so head could take the train to work. Our streets are a pretty solid sheet of ice this morning. I had no issues driving on it but some of our neighbors… well, they need to just stay home. Coming down the hill from our MARTA station back home one of them decided to slam on the brakes as they came over the top of the hill, which resulted in them going onto the sidewalk. :rolleyes: I got around them and came on home with no issue. I think I'll stay in today. I'm not as worried about my driving on this mess as I am the other people out there. Atlanta drivers are apparently no better than those in ALCO's Festering Pit when it comes to driving on ice.

For future reference, what is the name of the diner?
Its right next to the Sheraton Suites in Cypress just off 95 (the 95 side of the train tracks). mmmm.... Moons :rolleyes: My Hammy. |
I've got no room in my travel schedule until the last weekend of March. Doesn't look like any discounted Europe fares are available that far into the future, yet.

Are you required to have your masters in NJ to teach? Since we are moving there next month my wife is applying for a temporary cert (status match ;)) to teach since she already has the NY and TX cert. She does not have her Masters, yet.

Fountain at apartment complex had a very sizeable crusting of ice, this morning. Stepping out into the Downtown wind-tunnel was reminiscent of my recent stay in Stockholm.

Don't think I got this posted yesterday, but US Airways has managed to impress me. Yeah, I never thought I'd say that, but they have. After our flight home was canceled last Saturday, they not only rebooked us into A class on the new flight, which meant a first class upgrade and CO posting the miles as a paid F fare, with the RDM and EQM bonuses, but yesterday as I was arriving at LAX they e-mailed me an unsolicited apology for the flight cancellation and asked me to confirm my information so they could send us each an electronic certificate good toward another flight with them. I have no idea how much we'll get, as the actual voucher hasn't arrived yet, but not bad at all for something I didn't even complain about. Honestly, I would have been fine with no compensation, as we were only delayed a couple of hours and they gave us better seating without us asking. Still, they handled the situation quite well — better, in fact, than DL and CO have handled cancellations I've had in recent years.

I was thinking something similar - February is completely booked for me.

I remember when we had an ice storm and it stayed below freezing for two days when I lived in Atlanta. The streets were a zoo.

Correct - my sister taught in NJ without a masters.

Well, we haven't gotten into the fuel dump lessons yet. Those are much more complicated and involve many more strange code-words (harlem shuffle??) and it is somewhat harder to make work. But when it does work the benefit can be an additional $100-200 in savings. That can be next week's class. :)
THANKS! |

Sadly, no. I'm thinking it may already be a dumped fare since it's a mix of BD and UA. There was a loophole that would dump BD/UA itins, I just don't know if it was fixed.
Where are you seeing the $615? |
