Congratulations. I never knew I was wrong so many times until I got married

When did he get elected over there? He ain't done giving away this country, surely he cannot have started to do that over there

It's a great tradition. The last one gave it to Enron, Haliburton, AIG, and a few others. We love tradition here, so we hope to see it continue.

I saw it on the Travel Channel a few weeks ago. It is quite impressive.

Bruxelles, Belgique

OT - has anyone else received a Thank You for flying in F? Mrs. Italy received this email:


Dear Mrs. Italy98,

Thank you for traveling in First, and we hope you'll continue to fly up front and enjoy:

* Amenities like pillows, blankets, and new glassware, china and silverware
* Ice cream truffles and gourmet nuts on BusinessElite flights between New York-JFK and Los Angeles and San Francisco
* Celebrity chef Michelle Bernstein's delicious entrιes on flights over 1,500 miles and tasty snacks or meals on all other flights

And just for flying First Class, BusinessElite or Business Class, you earn 150% Medallion Qualification Miles (MQMs) and bonus miles.

See you onboard again soon! We look forward to serving you.

Strange that the last few flights Mrs. Italy has been on she has been traveling with me yet I did not receive a Thank you.

For our colleagues who do not speak French, "Nemo 33 is a 33-meter deep swimming pool that is filled with 2,500,000 liters of specially filtered unchlorinated spring water maintained at 30 °C (86 °F). It has a range of different cool stuff underwater, including simulated caves, several platforms and of course the 33-meter deep cylindrical pit. In case you are wondering, that is deeper than you are allowed to go on a standard SCUBA diving license."

Thanks for the translation, that facility does sound very cool

Sorry for the spam folks. I have no idea what happened to my email. My computer wasn't even turned on when the mass emailing went out.

With Easter just around the corner, it's time for a Public Safety Message.

This is your brain on Peeps.

When I saw it on the Travel Channel, there's a part of the pool that has windows where you can look through and see the people in the bar. It looks like an awesome experience.

Sending positive travel vibes to Traveller. Her ATL-MLB went MX tonight and she's stuck at the Clarion on DL's dime. Surprised they didn't send her somewhere nicer as a DM

My wedding is off!

Neither Traveller's incredibly beautiful sister nor scoow's sexy sister-in-law agreed to tie the knot with me.

True, Sister Mary Bambi Takamoto was willing, but what good is marrying an imaginary woman?

At least she wasn't sent to a Rodeway (Choice's bottom tier) or Knight's Inn (Wyndham's bottom tier). And I can affirm the EconoLodge ATL (Choice's second-lowest tier) is a dump even by EconoLodge standards - it's where I stayed before flying to KOA.
