Man you need to wake up. 10 trips in May and 4 (6th, 13th, 16th, and 23rd)were am departures. That's 40% night flying. I guess being up so many nights you got confused.
Enjoy the ride I'm hanging with one of your Philly boys in SJU. I'm converting him into a Cowboy fan.

Won't work on me. I prefer the female of the species.

Well, if you can get a 72 to SJU you might change your mind.

I'm hearing a strong rumor that no one gives a hoot about the bid anymore.

Come on after 6 hours on the beach I had to come back to meet Los1 for dinner. Some day you'll be senior enough to fly out of the lower 48. Not now but some day... maybe

Any good wrecks/rumors? Did BM bring his helmet?

No rumors, "O" went on record during RGS a few weeks back that they are more concerned with Practice Bid #2 being "correct" than it being "timely".

Additionally, it's very evident they don't blindly trust the results the computers kick out --- they actually go over them manually somehow to check if all the previously identified hiccups were corrected.

My guess --- sometime on Thursday...NLT COB Friday.
