Since the seat-swapping thread is on a timeout I'll post this question in here:

Taking the fam to NYC over the Xmas break and booked STL>LGA, 2 tix in FC with Companion cert and 2 in coach w/ miles. There should be no problem letting my daughter sit with my wife in my FC seat and me sitting back in coach w/ the boy, correct? FA won't get picky about that?

Do you have proof of that?

and yet more inci-dental commentary adding to the amalgam of contributions; sometimes it's not particularly easy to distal it all down

Well, then, brace yourself for some more — especially from a species of dinosaur called the orthodontist. They used to roam the earth with periodontists, brontosauruses and mygumsarsoruses.

At least you are not getting a cavity check like the one you might receive at an airport security checkpoint. Would that be a good way to cap off this discussion and crown someone the winner for the best puns?

I think any pun about cavities caries the day.

Ages of the children? Officially, you could owe two UM fees since the two adults are (officially) seated in different cabins from the kids.

Those kinds of cavity checks are molar opposites to the kind we've been talking about here. Maybe we should analyze which is the winning pun-ishment.

...so how do we count community groans?

Do we all each get three groans — or must we split the three groans amongst us in proportion to what you quoted?

In this specific case, do I earn one full groan; jrl767 earns one full groan; and Zorak and davetravels split a groan?!?
