I considered it flica but I'm using EZ Per diem which I've used before. They have a good section for other pilot deductions over the meals and entertainment.

Haha.. I'm definitely not a spelling champ nor do I posses a high vocabulary but I think I may have gotten lucky and used a correct word. You have to be careful when calling someone ignorant to get it right!!
Dribble=Drivel
Dribble from dictionary.com:
verb (used without object), dribbled, dribbling.
1.
to fall or flow in drops or small quantities; trickle.
2.

Well, that's a nice try; however, drivel in your example does not mean what you think it means. In your example it means to drool. So no, they're not equal. This ends the English lesson for the day.
Are you sure you want talk about ignorance and getting things right again?

But enough of this nonsense. Let's talk about something important....like who else is expecting a mini operational meltdown when the snow hits the east coast this weekend?

There is an expanded definition giving an example of using dribble for talking about small stuff and even a few people's comments below the definition ask and answer that you could use dribble to describe a conversation. And that's what I hate about language in the first place. I can turn in an essay to two different teachers and get two very different grades for the same paper. Language is not mathematics where there is just one correct answer. As long as the other person understands what you meant it's good enough.
