Too bad these weren't in OMNI, they'd qualify for the "best juxtaposed thread titles" thread:

This is quite unnerving--it is 3:10AM, and I've been working with DL for the past 3 hours. It's more like 2:45 of being on hold and 15 minutes of actual talking with a rep.
The main issue is that when they tried to reissue my ticket for a different DTW-PVD flight, they erased my VN operated SGN-HKG, which is how I'm supposed to get to the HKG-NRT-DTW flight. In addition, they told me that I could not be guaranteed a seat now as Y and J are still oversold.
Should I push for further compensation than the 300 delta dollar voucher?

I'm in the E concourse Skyclub (former BE lounge) where they have a stack of M&S coupons, and told me to grab as many as I wanted.
I'd be happy to mail out some - how many should I grab?
edit: There's an AF 777 parked just outside. Man, those engines are BIG.

I have liberated a bunch - PM me an address, and I'll mail you a couple tomorrow or Friday.
I love the coupon. It says valid through February 10, 2011. Then right under that is also say "Not Valid 2/11 - 2/14/11". I kind of thought that was covered under the valid through February 10, 2011 part.
I'll pick up 20 or so. Should have plenty to mail out to other Loungers. Just let me know.

The dishwasher here broke about two months ago. The food that was left over on the plates accumulated that much over 6 years that the drain wasn't taking out any water. But it has since been fixed.
Had a good Christmas, and now I'm back home. Not much going on until Monday.

Another one may tag your dishes with an extra clean sparkle.
Be careful with the guy who has a frigid air of a personality.
There's one guy I can't remember the name of, but he's a huge kitchen aid.

A de-lovely walk on the beach early this morn, here in paradise. 
Slightly chilly, though. I am NOT complaining. Air temp is heading back up for the next several days, they say.
Mama grizzly bear swim on tap this afternoon. Water temp around 58-60 degrees?
No matter. ^
Will catch a few rays whilst viewing the "European-style" bathers.
I'll miss the green flash this evening, due to other plans. No worries, I'll catch it again o'er the next few days.
Have a happy, y'all.

I can only tell you that American military kitchens always have refrigerators provided by one particular company. This was the result of a long and impartial study made by a committee chaired by Pentagon procurement chief General E. Lectric.

Ask for the maximum difference between full F and the lowest LUT fare, plus the cost of your phone call and the time you spent on the phone.
