It was meant to be spelled with the extra "r". I've been trying periodically to reinsert it for more than a decade.

You could get a goat but then you wouldn't have any flowers.

I could, but then we'd have to deal with goat poo.

In my case I am flying VS from LHR-JFK on 24th April and was hoping that maybe a DL status holder might be in the VS LHR Clubhouse on the same day and would be kind enough to guest me in!

good morning from Seattle

I just received an email from Delta congratulating me on accumulating my millionth mile ... so I guess it's time to go look for a new rollaboard bag

I'd appreciate any opinions as to the Tumi vs Hartmann options ... thx in advance!

I would pity you, but your .75 acres would fit on my lot with room to spare. I find that the mowing goes much faster now with a 52" zero turn radius riding mower...

I have a Hartmann, but the Tumi wasn't an option when I hit one million. I can't really compare it to the Tumi toiletry bag I have from a transpac flight.

...but I believe what Howste is attempting to say is that if he were in your situation, he would choose the riding mower over the Hartmann bag...

I don't know about Hartmann, but all of our 25+ year old Tumi stuff, which has been in constant use that entire time, is still our primary luggage. The only problem we're ever had was a broken zipper on a computer bag after about 20 years. I swapped it with a Smith & Wesson bag so now I use that as a computer carry on and the Tumi to carry a few pistols to the range.

Our rollerbags are now oversize (26") but everyone lets them through and they fit just about everywhere.

We picked up a 42" riding mower on Friday. It was free, and wasn't working. Mr. Kipper replaced the head gasket and while it still needs a battery, and a clutch spring, it works.

In some places possession of drugs can lead to death (then again, I don't know who would carry >1/2 kg of weed other than dealers...)

Three weeks from this moment I will be done with this semester. So close, yet so far away.
