Ham I am, Spam I am.
A ham by any other name would be Spam.
[There really is a Spam museum, but I'm sure it's snow covered today--chocolate covered would be better.]
ADDED: BTW, many congrats on your boat purchase.

I’m reserving judgment on “happy” until I learn whether I’ll get a VDB on DCA-ATL ... I’m protected on the next flight, still have ~50 min for the layover before the SEA flight departs ... the only problem was that ATL-SEA disappeared from “My Trips” on the app (full website still has it though)

Report back on if it is "happy".

nope
it’s a really weird situation that I didn’t try to dissect — 1106 departure, scheduled as a 321 but downgauged to a 320; the 0800 flight is delayed until 1210 (inbound jet diverted to IAD last night, and is now ferrying over to DCA), so they’ve evidently reaccommodated all those pax on other flights ... which allowed the GAs to move enough people off this jet to the delayed one and clear the volunteer list
