Don't get me started on 1st and 3rd...

Yes, it is better than LAX-JFK allnighters, no doubt. But are you saying you do not fly international trips any more because you cannot make it past Fallon?

No, I can't hold international anymore except on Christmas and July 4th... probably Superbowl Sunday if it's a good matchup....

But seriously, I do like international except when I am waking up from my inflight nap and the arrival nap. Both times I seriously ax myself why I am doing this... and I am pretty good at sleeping on airplanes. My father in law calls my ability to fall asleep quickly "the gift".
