I unilaterally support two-ply anywhere, at any time, in any context. I can only hope that one-ply gets eradicated from the planet with the same fervor that Rotary and Bill Gates applied to deleting polio from the planet.

The only thing worse than one-ply is one-ply individual sheets that are packed like napkins. You have no idea how traumatic kindergarten was when that was all they had. Well that, and the fact that I was already a foot taller than all the other kids so the low boy toilets they had and I did not get along very well. :-:

Worst. Invention. Ever.

Just picked up another short-term project from my old company. Nice to know that they're still willing to hire me for various things. Plus it should help ease the transition as I leave my current long-term/full-time endeavor which I'm phasing out likely by the end of the month.

I started burning as soon as the revisions to the standard point chart were announced (and then quickly taken offline).

More evidence for me to switch to SPG or Hyatt.

Wow, now this is ballsy. I get an email from TripAdvisor that I have no idea how I signed up for in the first place about cheap airfares originating in PHL. I click on Unsubscribe in the email and it launches the window in which to do so and behind it launches a popunder ad dealing with cheap air from PHL. :rolleyes:-us Maximus.

I got the status match to SPG Plat in December and am trying to burn through half a million HH pts before the rate hike. Just can't get the boy to provide any meaningful feedback on vacation destinations. :rolleyes:

Im trying but HH properties are cost efficient, everywhere and you generally get free breakfast and internet. I think my only other option for a similar program would be Priority Club :rolleyes:.

ETA: I am 97% on my own dime so these things matter.

I can haz SPG Gold thru Feb. of 2011, so I could conceivably make a run at Plat if I got a job that justified it. I'm much more concerned with how I'm going to keep *G, however.

House appraisal is complete; we're all good. All systems are go for loan funding. :cool:

Hotel status isnt as important as Airline status, IMO. I imagine after I burn through all my HH points I will consider the sbm12 route of priceline.
