Stuck in ATL for 4 more hours (been here for 2, earlier flights too full to standby for, interviews over early, etc etc etc). No free wifi here, but desks w/ power outlets every 2 or 3 gates. The Crown Club sounds awfully tempting - wonder if they do a day pass.

HI DERE I R HEATROW AIPRORT AGAIN

The Real Dirty Vicar, Friday, 8 August 2008 20:17 (fifteen years ago) link

Now in Boston Logan, in the admiral's club which suck compared to the BA exec lounge. No free booze for starters, half the power points don't work and no free wireless.

Yup tza, free bar and mix your own in BA lounges. Us Europeans get some things so right.

heading out to california, via DFW, connection is 40 minutes, I am sceptical that this going to work.

Ed, Saturday, 9 August 2008 20:13 (fifteen years ago) link

Good luck Ed, hope it all falls right in line. I was never so glad to get home after that ATL flight. You can buy a large bag of peanut M&Ms on Delta now for $2, btw.

Jaq, Saturday, 9 August 2008 20:50 (fifteen years ago) link

All fell into line and even the bags made it. Was touch an go when someone in Row 21 started 'exhibiting symptoms of a heart attack' as we rolled up to the gate but we dashed down to the other end of terminal B and the ONT flight was slightly delayed. Even our bags made it.

Amazing!

Ned Raggett, Monday, 11 August 2008 18:07 (fifteen years ago) link

There was a Dell Inspiron (lappy) in the trash outside security as I was going thru.

libcrypt, Wednesday, 13 August 2008 22:52 (fifteen years ago) link

I can't really say I blame whoever tossed it.

libcrypt, Wednesday, 13 August 2008 22:52 (fifteen years ago) link

Waiting for my flight north from John Wayne. An hour to go. Hmm hmm.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 13 August 2008 23:12 (fifteen years ago) link

too bad you'll have to miss enuff z'nuff/pretty boy floyd/bulletboys at the roxy tomorrow.

I weep!

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 13 August 2008 23:18 (fifteen years ago) link

ONT again to SEA. Took far to long to find petrol for the rentao car so now everything is cut pretty fine. As it stands still on the shuttle bus from Hertz.

Ed, Thursday, 14 August 2008 01:00 (fifteen years ago) link

In SFO for a few more minutes before heading to Monterey. Beautiful views of the fog coming in over the hills, and you can see what I see by checking the most recent Flickr shot

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 14 August 2008 02:06 (fifteen years ago) link

Are you in SEA for long Ed?

Jaq, Thursday, 14 August 2008 03:12 (fifteen years ago) link

Only till saturday, and to be fair in Everett, visiting my girlfriend's family, she has not really been back in 10 years; other wise I would say drink's woo etc.

Had a Dick's hamburger on Broadways last night which apparently was the thing to do and was a pretty good burger.

Ed, Thursday, 14 August 2008 16:28 (fifteen years ago) link

Did you put tartar sauce on it?

Laurel, Thursday, 14 August 2008 16:30 (fifteen years ago) link

Mustard, ketchup and those pickled onions and it had a lot of tasty goop on it but no tartar sauce. Good shakes although the chocolate shake at the in n out won by a nose.

Ed, Thursday, 14 August 2008 16:34 (fifteen years ago) link

i have to go to the airport tonight. I HATE FLYING.

lauren, Thursday, 14 August 2008 16:45 (fifteen years ago) link

In JFK again for the wee pecker plane to MPLS, way too early as nothing went wrong on my way down here.

Ed, Saturday, 23 August 2008 21:37 (fifteen years ago) link

I like flying but I like it more if there's turbulence. I have three action movies and Stand by Me to watch on my ipod along with 5 episodes of "No Reservations", which is good because altogether I will be in FOUR DIFFERENT AIRPORTS TOMORROW. Fuck me. Those flights damn well better be on time.

Laurel, Saturday, 23 August 2008 22:36 (fifteen years ago) link

where you goin, laurel?

tehresa, Saturday, 23 August 2008 22:51 (fifteen years ago) link

I like flying but I like it more if there's turbulence

Ay-yi-yi, complete opposite with me. I like flying but even some small turbulence = ARGH.

Ned Raggett, Saturday, 23 August 2008 22:52 (fifteen years ago) link

Unexcitingly, I'm only going to Michigan! By way of Milwaukee and Kansas City, I guess. Hurrah.

Laurel, Saturday, 23 August 2008 22:58 (fifteen years ago) link

Also, I'm about 80% sure I sprained my ankle today (it's been iced and wrapped already), so getting through four airports to make late connections ought to be hilarious. HELLO, SKYCAB?

Laurel, Saturday, 23 August 2008 22:59 (fifteen years ago) link

Why do people think sucking face on the airtrain at 8:30 am is ok?

tehresa, Friday, 29 August 2008 12:44 (fifteen years ago) link

Omg what is this foul new perfume that every person in my vicinity seems to be wearing 3 gallons of?

Almost wasn't allowed to check in after kiosk malfunction and cutting it way too close to departure time. Now on plane :) but I really wish there'd been time for coffee :(

tehresa, Friday, 29 August 2008 13:20 (fifteen years ago) link

Sitting in buffalo for over an hour bc my parents are paranoid about long check-ins. Check in, bag and security took <5 min.

tehresa, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 16:20 (fifteen years ago) link

Drinky time then.

this is such an old person thing!! my parents and my friends parents are always like "well if your flight is at 1:15 you should probably be there by 11 AM" and really the only response is "lol u old"

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 2 September 2008 16:23 (fifteen years ago) link

it also depends on the airport yah know

Mr. Que, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 16:24 (fifteen years ago) link

Tru, though even my tight squeeze at JFK last week was under 20 min from entrance to gate.

Also, apparently Josh Grobin is not enough: we now have Josh grobin muzak!

Good luck USA! (ENBB), Tuesday, 4 November 2008 23:26 (fifteen years ago) link

Our flight was delayed by two hours so we checked in and went home since we leave nearby.

I'm in Denver airport on layover to St. Louis. It's awesome here. I mean shit, the airport train uses a Johnny Cash/Duane Eddy guitar twang riff for its boarding alarm!

HI, YOUR BAND! (Mackro Mackro), Sunday, 9 November 2008 20:02 (fifteen years ago) link

only thing not awesome are awkwardly placed power outlets, but at least they have them

HI, YOUR BAND! (Mackro Mackro), Sunday, 9 November 2008 20:03 (fifteen years ago) link

i wish they used a john denver sample instead.

;n_n; (tehresa), Sunday, 9 November 2008 20:09 (fifteen years ago) link

or a denver pyle sample

mookieproof, Sunday, 9 November 2008 20:11 (fifteen years ago) link

it should be the Green Eyed Lady bassline

HI, YOUR BAND! (Mackro Mackro), Sunday, 9 November 2008 20:11 (fifteen years ago) link

well EVERYTHING should be the Green Eyed Lady bassline

i'm in the san jose airport for the next two hours and the music is awful. there is awesome foodstuff variety though because if i don't like one starbucks, i can just walk like 50 yards down the terminal and go to another one.

Lingbert, Saturday, 29 November 2008 23:58 (fifteen years ago) link

hey lingbert

ASCII NED (libcrypt), Sunday, 30 November 2008 00:06 (fifteen years ago) link
