How's Arkansas? I've been to that area (when I lived in Memphis), and it was shockingly lovely.I’m on a boat.
Visited my Aunt and family in Hot Springs in the mid '80's. Highlights: 1. Red and White Razorbacks Trucker cap; 2. Falling in love with my older cousin Amy (When In Rome, or whatevs).I’m on a boat.
The penalty boxes out there are pretty awesome too. Why head back to a gate when you can enjoy sitting on the side of the taxiway watching other planes not delayed?Dallas has the longest taxi I’ve ever experienced. Pretty sure getting to the runway is longer than my flight.
It's not all I have. I also currently own an annoying hangover, and a schedule full of conference calls. This will be great.the rover said:look, man, nothing else is happening here. Live blogging my ever improving flight and impending doomed relationship with a random flight attendant is all we have right now.
AND I WILL NEVER, EVER FORGIVE HIM FOR THAT.Call back here to Furley's co-worker who is hyper-animated and super-obnoxious, but yet, doesn't exist because Furls refuses to video his histrionics.

It’s beautiful. We’re on Lake Hamilton.How's Arkansas? I've been to that area (when I lived in Memphis), and it was shockingly lovely.
I think that is where my aunt/uncle used to live, and we would launch old golf range balls cross the lake from their back yard on family reunions (we figured it was 225 yards to the rock across the lake from their backyard...,y dad would bring down a box of old driving range balls for us to launch). I learned to water ski, innertube, and be a general ### there... Still remember the smell of crappy stale beer from my Uncle's choice of beverages...It’s beautiful. We’re on Lake Hamilton.

happy father's day dude. i'm headed to work for a 12 hour shift. slap it high?happy fathers' day, all!
hopefully I'm not the only one in my family who remembered. lunch time, and not a single word from the wife or kids. it shouldn't, because I don't care about these kind of days that much... but not even a "happy fathers' day" from one of them is bumming me out. they headed to the pool while I'm about to take our trash to the dump. feel tempted to just keep driving to the beach and enjoy the day to myself.
Happy Scarf Day to you Floppo. Been there with this. Usually works out later in the day. Could be a trap.happy fathers' day, all!

AND he remembered.Got this FB message from my oldest son today. He lives about 5 hours away.
Son: It’s father’s day and I thought about calling you to chat like I did with mom on mother’s day but I thought you might not like it lol
Me: Lol I was actually just about to take a nap, thanks though.
Son: I was going to call or text but I didn’t want to irritate you
Me: Not irritating me is the best gift ever
Son: Done
He really is a great kid
I feel your pain. A buddy donated a kidney and he's a hero. I tried to donate five and got arrested.I tried donating blood today, but what’s with all of the questions? Whose blood is it? Where did you get it? Why is it in a bucket?
Did they ask if you were gay and had sex with a prostitute in Brazil?I tried donating blood today, but what’s with all of the questions? Whose blood is it? Where did you get it? Why is it in a bucket?
This is on top of our only Cuban saingwich shop already closing and our best burger joint closing in late July, all due at least in part to Covid-19Our only local Jamaican food place is closing at the end of the week. Grabbed 2 orders of jerk chicken and a curry shrimp ( ) yesterday that I'll be lunching on through the week.
There's still a food truck, but I'm going to miss having that place in the rotation.
what i hear you saying is "i'm opening my own restaurant in the fall"This is on top of our only Cuban saingwich shop already closing and our best burger joint closing in late July, all due at least in part to Covid-19
I have good friends in the restaurant biz. Don't want any part of that, pandemic or not.what i hear you saying is "i'm opening my own restaurant in the fall"
sounds like an awesome place with a good story. something tells me this lady is resilient and you haven't seen the last of her.I have good friends in the restaurant biz. Don't want any part of that, pandemic or not.
The Cuban place really hurts, not just because the food was great, but the couple that ran it were great people. Here's an article from a couple years ago.
