WRT retirement (well not JUST retirement)... I have one piece of advice. If you fly over 80 hours, fill up your bank. ASAP. Especially if you are planning on an upgrade in either seat or aircraft.

It is a good story, we'll keep it.

To Al!




And to the new Al, the one that married the voluptuous Columbian! WHO IS NOW AS PREGNANT AS MRS 80KTSCLAMP... and MRS GRASSHOPPER.

Has the RAW score change affected the way RAW points are accumulated? Hasn't it always been twice the credit of the trip = RAW points... is that still the same?

May he be merciful. I have a feeling there's gonna be a little "payback" running around the house. FTB be glad yours are older.

Filling up the bank question-- if we just fill the bank now, before Jan, will we be able to pull it out in Jan at the 8.1% higher wages (or whatever the raise is)? I've not used the bank, so not super sure when/why I would do so, but in low / out-high seems good?
