    @JohnInCarolina - Just got really hosed by American Airlines in LGA Monday.  I Could not agree more with your comments.  The gate area where I spent 5 friggin hours (shoulda been 90 minutes in the AM) did not have a single restaurant or bar.  Of course after four gate changes and one board then off-load  to another plane we finally escaped.  
    Good luck and safe travels.  
    See my comment above.  Not the best of luck today for me my friend.

    Well I just got royally kicked in the nads by mother nature and Delta airlines.

    I was on standby, and somehow my bags made it on to an earlier flight, but I didn't get off standby.   Not a real big deal as I was still booked on a later flight... until that one got cancelled.  I'm currently rebooked on a flight out of here at 8am tomorrow that doesn't get me home until 6pm because I'm connecting through Cincinnati and ... you guessed it... Atlanta, before finally flying home to RDU.

    Delta also would not give me a hotel voucher, so I booked myself into a Marriott nearby.  Little did I know said Marriott does not have any place to eat, because they are renovating their restaurant.  That would have been helpful to know *before* I booked a room, you aholes.  

    I have terrible friggin luck traveling.  
    So you don’t have your bags?  I was going to say, it sounds like you could use a good shave to  relax.  Maybe just get into the whiskey instead.

    No bags.  My bags are headed to Raleigh, where they will hopefully sit unmolested at baggage claim for 24 hrs.  What could possibly go wrong?

    Why didn’t you fly on your private jet? Just felt like slumming it today?

    @YukonRon - great gesture and that sounds like it's going to be very much enjoyed.  Off your game just means you are toying with us pedestrians.  Enjoy the remainder of the cook and especially the evening.  
    Thank you for the kind words, Frank. Means a lot.

    I am cooking ribs for this evening, we are celebrating a very dear friend's completion of Chemo. A long way to go, but every journey begins with the first single step.
    She asked for ribs. I am Low and slow smoking some BBs with peach....
    I am doing similar tomorrow   The mother was diagnosed with breast cancer (caught It early) 2 years ago. After a 3 months of aggressive treatments, double mastectomy. The father, was diagnosed 3 months ago with stage 1 testicular cancer. He is now stage four and they found it in his lymph nodes.  He has to decide how he wants to proceed by Monday. Treatments or not.  They have a 6 year old and 11 year old.

    As soon as something does not go as planned or my way, I think of this family. 

    Pork butt tomorrow, then will be shredded and vac packed in 1.5 lbs packages. It is the least I can do at this time. 
    Bless you brother. We all need to take a step back from time to time and realize how well we have it.
    A wise lady told me many years ago as a young stupid kid "If you put your problems in a pile with a few other folks, you would be pulling yours back out, because it is nowhere near as severe when compared to their troubles."
    Dude, I get it. I really do.

    @JohnInCarolina too bad this cluster didn't run to conclusion at the beginning of the day.  You coulda driven home with a whole lot less aggravation.  
    I would explore different routing next time.  That's way too many chances for hic-cups.  The only reason I swallow AA and LGA is the non-stop aspect both ways.
