You can see the future.......

Geez... I think I’ll go hug my wife and say a thank you prayer or ten.

So sad isn’t it. They are willing to be valued less then their peers. And work harder for it.

Hah Zap, im glad my wife doesn't mind if I show up a day late or have to commute out for work. As long as she gets to buy what she wants she is happy. So its a trade off, shoes for work I guess.

So back on topic, anybody think there will be a "big announcement" coincident with the 50th anniversary next month? Maybe Anchorage? Or Toronto? Halifax? Montreal? Bermuda? Knoxville?

Or a competitive response to the Breeze flying out of Tampa and Pittsburgh?

Yes, I but not Canada. Unless they’ve figured out how to make US dollars out of Loonies.

I predict another airport in a city we already go to. Like now we’ll go to MAF *and* MDD.
