I think I did a yellow rose corsage for my high school prom date - I also bought the matching boutonniere.

The Acela is not bad. Just rode it again yesterday.


I actually enjoy the Acela too. I just get anxious if I don't board a plane for a week.

Good Evening, Box

Four more days until my first flight of 2010. Sadly it's on WN.

Yeah, but I bet the view out your window more than makes up for it.

Hiya, Box,

I was able to stop today and get a few pics of the remnants of the ice jam/flooding we had last week. Those things were even bigger than I thought.

I will endeavor to be on the port side of the train.

I do know I've had way more than 3 73G flights. And the following weekend sees me fly SkyTeam USA and OneWorld USA.

Hi Box,

Just got the news earlier this afternoon that I didn't get the job :(

Well...time to keep looking and see if I can find a job where I can really travel (as this job probably wasn't going to be much if any...).

Bummer...sorry, but this will be a good thing in the end when you land the position you really want!

One thing I haven't acclimated to with the weight loss is needing to wear a belt with jeans. I'm a mess around the house.

Problem when one's plan is prove to himself that he can maintain weight, then lose even more ;)

Sadly, multiple beers cannot happen nightly. Too many calories (and don't get me started on MGD 64).
