That is bad--
--worse is the fact that my flight to PHL is on a B1900 and due to mechanical problems on the way in, the flight crew are performing a "simulated flight" at the end of the runway.(The B1900 is the essential SLF experience)

Speaking of more pleasant matters, made some delicious wheat pecan waffles topped with strawberries.
The bad part, is that I burned two fingers, my daughter asked me something, looked away and pushed the waffle maker inside the counter, but I touched the hot plate
I had no idea those things got so hot

But a recent article about battery production indicated that your company was all out to bring lots of new manufacturing work to >>>>Holland, Mi.<<<<. 
Won't they need someone up there full time for a few years to get things going?

It is only a three hour flight to South Florida and we take it a couple of RTs a month. Why would anybody need IFE on a three hour flight? I just got off 20+ hours of flying in airplanes with AVOD and never needed to turn the d*mn thing on.

Still out of season, there is a chance for a tropical system to develop off the coast of North Carolina today.
