Thank God Girl Scout Cookies are only in the Spring. Otherwise, they'd be responsible for me gaining 20+ pounds annually.
I could be your thin mint pusher. I was too lazy to drag the 7 year old around the neighborhood, so now I own 50 boxes of them...all so she can get her #$#%# cookie badge.

I love Girl Scout cookies. I especially loved buying Girl Scout cookies because the Scouts themselves never made the pitch. Instead, they stood by silently while their moms did the selling.

The sexier the mom, the more cookies I would buy.

I was surprised that I made my flight to Monterrey, the ELP-IAH flight was delayed 50 minutes, and I was going to miss my flight, I was going to have to take IAH-SLW, but then the flight IAH-MTY was delayed, and was able to catch it ^

You probably ask, if he was flying to Saltillo, why did he fly to MTY instead of SLW, is because SLW sucks, and this time of year they get so much fog that most flights get canceled. So, MTY, although it was a 90 drive here

Sadly this was before our conversation this afternoon. I showed restraint by not opening up another tin-foil wrapper.

If you're anywhere near SLP, I'd be glad to buy some boxes to feed my addiction to thin mints

Maybe if I am offered to be promoted work for moderating onto the FlyerTalk. Because I am valuable onto the forums and I am getting better to speak very good English skills. Because I am super thread that I am very helpful to get more investigations from airlines. I can understanding now that I am very good emotional by FTs forums for 5 years now. So I will take it time to do readability the forums for everyday. Is that very important things to do for me that I have to post there more specific info from airlines & TSA, too.

Obviously, I would definitely if I will work for moderating in Florida, New York City, Delta Air Lines, El Al Israel Airlines, Skyteam. So I would able to take the advantage of my own work for moderating onto the FlyerTalk Forums. I will able to taking my own responsiblities work for the team. So if you would consider to speak with FlyinHawaiian will have to be approval that I am accepted work for moderating onto FlyerTalk for everyday. Thanks All.

Are any of you familiar with Groupon?

Basically, it is a "group buying" internet startup. For many cities in the US, they feature a deal every day such as a $30 GC to whatever restaurant for $15. In any case, they are holding a contest to find someone to live off nothing but Groupons for a FULL YEAR. I'm applying, because after all, if anyone can do it, it'll be a FlyerTalker. You can find more information about the contest at http://www.liveoffgroupon.com.
In the interim, I would appreciate the support of the Lounge™.

On Twitter, please follow me at http://www.twitter.com/GrouponGuy
On Facebook, please become a fan of the page http://www.facebook.com/GrouponGuy

Soon, I will have a blog, etc, up. Whatever city I'm in, I'll be happy to share Groupons with fellow FlyerTalkers!

Well this sucks, I am stuck at IAH for three hours and all the Presidents clubs are out of bounds since continental left sky team, the only option listed on the website is the KLM lounge, but they wont let me in since according to them the lounge is only open to their customers from 5 pm.
This really sucks
