Good luck! What weaponry are you planning on using? I understand the Swiss Guard can be a formidable force.

Many FD's also bill the homeowners $10,000+ for on-site services, so perhaps it's reasonable to hold them accountable for the mess they make.

Personally, I'd rather have a big hole in the roof than roast potatoes in the coals afterwards.

delta null tickets

Good afternoon to the entire crew (and my favorite resident pervert of course)!

Today I had an adventure w/ Delta whereby toward the end of a 12 person booking on delta.com (booking each one seperately bc of different flight times) I had an unusual error. The system showed confirmation number : NULL on my confirmation page and the emailed receipt was also filled with a bunch of NULL fields. Kinda cool except that they started down the line of charging me for a ticket with no ticket# or confirmation number.

In any case, I called Delta and it took them an hour to reticket me b/c they were having internal system problems with the pay with miles feature. Fun times.

I feel very ashamed as a MR to admit I am paying near $600 for a rt ticket to seattle in July. (ugh). Fares are crazy, crazy i tell you. Last year a business ticket to Seattle was that price - bummer.

I had to call 911 this morning - drunk or medical issue causing a lady to swerve across 7 lanes of traffic, almost hitting me head-on. Keep checking the local newspaper's website for updates and (fortunately) it seems she didn't hit anyone.

Never would have imagined this was the case - guess this was the "large city" approach as I drove a brush jeep back in rural Maryland.

I had been trying to eat lunch. You need to include a warning of some type.

BTW, the TWA menu collection is still growing.
