Just came back from a two week family vacation and found a very nice note and a package (with 3 sporks plus some nice bonuses) from the Starwood Media Team in my office! ^

I'm so jealous! I don't have a travel spork.

That isn't a spork! It's a fork with spoon and knife. Look at Marklyon's post (below); THAT's a Spork!
A spork is a spoon with fork teeth on the same side, not on two different sides of the utensil.

I used a lot of sporks in the military; unfortunately, they were all plastic. No fancy titanium sporks.


Funny thread.

Cool! It's nice to see them make light of the situation... even though it wasn't all that serious in the first place

In a nutshell: "My aXXhole coworkers gave away my lunchbox and some dumb#&*# SPG Platinum guest ate my Chips Ahoy and all I have is this stupid Flyertalk thread."

I just dropped this off along with a printout of this entire thread. Minerva works in the sales department and the package was put in her box by the front desk clerk. I hope that Minerva enjoys her treat and stops in here to say hello!

This thread just keeps getting better and better. I have a case of the warm fuzzies.
