So true! I was commuting home last trip. I barely had time to get all my electronic toys out before I had to put them all away again. Back to a 3 hour commute, all off line......unless I want to do 2 legs.
What a moron..........must have been all the Jeremiah Weed, in my youth. Every fighter sq had a bottle in the freezer. I used to call it liquid stupid
Enjoy dinner my friend!

Seriously, I'm looking forward to the jet and the trips. But my LAX commute was the sweetest I've ever had
Sorry to see it go.Ferd

I did a walk around in Grand Forks, ND and the ambient temperature was -48 with WC it was -58, a light wind day. HYD froze in the tail, no flight. It isn't just the cold, it is also the dryness of the air. But trucking around water for $150K a year doesn't sound so bad.
In my 20 years, the last thing the military ever took into consideration was stewardship of tax-payer dollars. That's not to say they didn't care about the costs; they didn't want to go over their yearly budgets, but when it came to whether or not something made sense or not, there was never a thought about actually saving the money and not spending it.

I usually happy with most layovers, but I think the contractual obligation to always put us downtown on a long layover doesn't always need to be honored. On some of the layovers, the short layover hotels actually have more options and at better prices than the long layover hotels. Kind of like what they do in DTW for a long layover.
Most appropriate on topic Top Gun pic post ever.
Amen. You hate passing commercialized areas with tons of shopping and restaurants to go to one of the many dead downtowns. It's frustrating. Sure we want downtown New York, SFO, BOS, ORD, BNA, OMA but we can skip so many others for something safer and cheaper.
+1 Avoided that place for a while, but grabbed a $12.00 (After Discount) Steak Dinner and was pleasantly surprised. It sure beat the $20 Cobb salad I had over in SJC the night earlier.
