Well...I am going to PHX, but sadly flying US Scamways (I created this term after booking 1 ticket, and then having to book another ticket for the same flights, the price went up almost $400. Thank you Expedia...) But anyway I'm still counting down the days until I'm bound for PBI.
As you all know, I am a Patriots fan......All I can say now is...GO PACKERS. Chicago is overrated (and I was rooting for the Seahawks today). Obviously I shouldn't support the jets at all, and rex ryan just runs his mouth for a living. I do support Pittsburgh to take down the jets next week though.

The scary part is that Francois Duvalier (Papa Doc) was a doctor, and Jean-Claude (Baby Doc) was merely the son.
So it is a half-and-half situation...
UScAir is quite good--if one knows how to play the US system...
...it tends to be a very tricky system to master...

...and, being from New York, I am rooting for the Jets for the Super Bowl. However, it would not be the end of my life if they lost along the way.
Would you like the opportunity to do a good deed and assist this new 15-year-old FlyerTalk member?

It is one week later after the snowstorm that hit the Atlanta area and there is still at least a couple of inches of snow in some areas, especially in the areas in the shade around my home.
It should finally melt off soon, however.
Even back in the blizzard of 1993 that occurred shortly after I moved to the Atlanta area, the snow melted off only a couple of days later...I know that paradocs was not fake, although I wonder what happened to her...

In the '70s, in New Jersey, I knew (and employed) some of the guys who had fled from Duvalier's prisons and his Tonton Macoutes and I am certain that they will not have forgotten.
Managing an apartment building in a rough neighborhood became a lot easier when your super was a great big guy wearing army fatigues, carrying a machete and a bad reputation. Behind his back they called him "The Coconut" but they dared not cross him.

I do not think that it is half and half. I think that it is not unlikely that it will brew a tremendous amount of unrest that can easily result in civil war.

That airline is a scam. Everybody knows that (except for my mother...)
Vuelos = repossessed
If the onside kick worked, I had a feeling we could've tried and gotten a hail mary TD.
I literally just posted in that thread a matter of <5 minutes ago.

You have to admit that was a great game right up until the last 20 seconds, however...

Thank you for assisting that 15-year-old FlyerTalk member. In all seriousness, perhaps the two of you could be traveling buddies...

If the math worked that way, then you could trade in one of 50 for two of 25. However, we all know it doesn't work that way.
