There's a purpose in seating nonrevs in exit rows IF IF IF the nonrev is a FA or pilot as they would be very familiar with emergency procedures such as how to open emergency exits and help others to evacuate the aircraft. This is even more true if the deadheading or offduty crew are wearing DL uniforms. OTOH, other NRSAs (buddy pass riders etc.) should get the least desirable seats, although this might not be explicit policy. It's good for DL's business to treat its paying customers well when there's a choice between such passengers and DL friends and family.
Oh, and the answer is meatballs, always meatballs.
PS. Made with 1/3 beef, 1/3 pork 1/3 sausage and just the tiniest bit of breadcrumbs and spices. Dang, now I'm hungry.

do you have grounds to suspect so?
easy on the bread crumbs I will agree with, but just the tiniest bit of spices too? we're rather liberal with the oregano and garlic powder, a bit less so with white pepper ... we also favor turkey over beef

I use 1/2 beef 1/2 sausage, although I could see 1/3 beef, 1/3 sausage, and 1/3 pork. I'm pretty heavy-handed with the garlic. If I can't ward off vampires, it doesn't have enough garlic.

I like mine natural: just good qualify ground beef, preferably low fat, nothing else and no spices, thick and grilled very rare, served on a toasted English muffin. No ground hog, ground groundhog or even "ground" mystery meat in the mix.
I still want to see Phil splayed and roasted at a very high temperature. It's OK with me if the pelt is removed first, and better yet if the pelt is removed or at least shaved before he's tossed into a nice big cold snowbank.

OK, I get it: wearing out the Pup is good. Does it have little booties for the ice/snow/salt/chemicals? How about a warm winter coat, or is your fur baby sufficiently furry for Boston winters?
BTW, you can have the four inches we got this afternoon. I won't ask for anything in return. It's fluffy and rather pretty if you're inside.

We're supposed to see another inch or two tonight, and the first call on Sunday's storm is anywhere from 3-10 inches. I hate snow.

Dwight Schrute:If a vampire-bat was in the U.S. It would make sense for it to come to a sylvania. Like Pennsylvania. Now that doesnt mean that Jims gonna become a vampire, only that he carries that vampiric germ.

Good news Saturday morning: I just learned that yesterday's afternoon snowstorm gave us more like 6" and not the 4" I had previously thought. Official airport measurement was 5.9". The weather critters on the local morning news are making a big deal about the observation that IF March 1st were considered to be part of February (which would only seem fair, since even then February would still be the shortest month at 29 days), then February 2019 (plus the additional day) would be the third snowiest month ever here. The total is about forty inches, which is more snow that we've had in some entire recent winters. Yes, I'm bitter, and it's bitterly cold again too.
Now, where's that groundhog? I need to have a stern discussion with Phil.

And, if it helps, only 19 days until spring!

I did leave the country for about a week in January and I've been thinking about a sudden weekend or long weekend someplace warm, although I'm not generally a beach resort person so something like Grand Cayman doesn't seem very appealing to me. The problem is that I've been having trouble finding a weekend that works for me, and all the rescheduling I've been experiencing due to these snow events isn't helping. Now that we're entering spring break season, I suspect that some of the warm weather destinations will be packed with undesirables.
I usually do escape for a week or so in March, although I don't have that pinned down yet either.
