Wow. Crooked politics at its best. No exit polling in Massachusetts today. You don't say.

Please reference my comment from last night about your eating habits. :D;)

Hey - four pork chops (thin cut), a mess of spinach, and a half gallon of water are well within my calorie allowance due to what I eat for lunch at work (rice noodle soup at 280 calories).

BTW Box...I need a quick refresher...how painful is it to get from LAX to SNA? (without dealing with a cab for the journey, which would cost a small fortune most likely).

It just sounds kind of freaky when you say you're eating a rib eye and a pound of shrimp.:D Now if you would say you just ate an entire pizza, that's perfectly normal. :p

I understand where my calorie counts stand each day. Burning the same amount of calories is a different question.

I won't tell them what you said about the 325 points for every $50 gift check ;)

I take it all back! :eek: I went over the G bonuses on my account with a GP rep and after they were applied I had about 12k more points. My how those add up! Next, I'll have to look into how the cert points were not applied...

The hub manager at EWR is a super swell guy. I'm sure the opening has nothing to do with the breach.

12k is a nice stay at many hotels - that's another night at HR Tokyo. And the gift check thing (not getting points for the amount of the gift check) really has only happened at one hotel for me. Of course it's happened four times as that's where the G2 bonus is ...

* Hyatt Fair Lakes - fine
* Hyatt Dulles - fine
* Hyatt Place BNA / Franklin / Cool Springs - fine
* Hyatt Place BNA Airport - incorrect (all 4 stays)
