I am a Maker's Mark Ambassador -

I can invite others for the vaulted status or you can just sign up on your own. I have my name on a barrel plate and each year they send a small gift or appreciation as well as invitations to activities at the distillery.

The local liquor store was very impressed when I waved my card. Not unlike wearing a FO card around my neck!

When was the last time DL put your name on a plane or sent you an annual gift (other than HVC or SkyAdvisors)?

Thanks! I'll remember that suggestion next time.

Did they send the video showing the secret handshake, butt wiggle, squat thrust, and call?

For those that don't know, it resembles the interspecies mating ritual of badgers and wolverines.

Now playing in DTW North A SkyClub ...

In the business section, a gentleman having it out with his wife/girl friend/significant other ... on his cell. Everyone in the little business cubby area is being treated to this, but to add comedy to the tragedy, he's pacing up and down in this little room.

He's been shushed and otherwise given broad hints, but to no effect. And he's now 'hovering' at the end of the room I'm at.

I finally broke out my red Beats and put Scissor Sisters' "I Can't Decide" on continuous repeat. Judging from what I heard on this end, I think the relationship is doomed.

Good thing the nice FA on the BOS->DTW leg gave me two Woodfords for takeaway; I can decompress back on the way to Seattle.

Fly safely,

I guess so - should we invite Dovster to enhance the membership?

And the response of the sheep was to develop an enthusiastic following for Woodford.

No doubt there is now a swelling chorus in praise of Gordon's fine liquor products.

Just wait for 2016 when you'll be able to pre-order for your Sky Club visit from Bum Wine.

Don't bother -- I have never had the desire to make anyone named Mark.

what's the over/under on when she responds with "groan!"? (she's presumably at work, but I suspect we will see that before 1745EST)

Sheesh, Atlanta is even starting to sound appealing again. Nice and warm, lower cost of living, Waffle House on every corner...

I feel you. -15 morning. I didn't look but I bet it was warmer in Anchorage, AK at around 6:30am there (as I woke up at 6:30am today)
