Default No Turkey dinner

Read the last note from "O" and no mention of buying the holiday dinner for crews on the road at Thanksgiving that JL has done in the past. I guess the Grinch has come early at FedEx this year.

Probably just an oversight. Just expense it and see what happens!

"O" and the MEC figured they had delivered us a bigger Turkey with the LOA.

They didn't do it last year either. I think it is only Christmas dinner now although I hear we have a good spread set out for us here in IND just waiting for me downstairs! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Please stay away from DP's (Disputed Pies), no talk of LOA's (Left Over Applecider), FDA's (Fried Drumstick allowance) or STV's allowed(Small Turkey Vultures)!!! Now let's unsnap our pants and watch some football!!

Arrow No need for Alka Seltzer

Just did Dinner with the FO in Paris. Both had chicken and fries, him a avocado salad, me a small house salad, med Coke for me, a Perrier for him. The chicken was small, a small half if you had it a Boston Market or somewhere similar. 48 Euros plus change. Left a Fifty. Almost $75 for what at home would cost maybe $20 to $25 for two people. CDG bound 757 guys/gals, good luck!!

But I rather dine out in Paris than in MEM anyday. The service is better if you can believe that.
