My rear is staying planted here in my chair until it's time to go home!

 

[Fluvial]

Well I'm still *at* home.

 

[Ble_PE]

I wish I was still at home.

You are a time zone ahead of me. It's just now 8 here. I think you are close to where my son lives, he's at Camp Lejeune.

 

[Ble_PE]

^Yea, I'm about 3.5 hours west of there. I forgot that you were a central timer.

 

[Fluvial]

At least it hasn't started to rain yet.

 

[Ble_PE]

I'm hoping that we don't have any weather related delays for any of our flights.

Wow, woot has a really cool GPS today.

Speaking of GPS, I'm thinking about picking up a Garmin 205 or 1300 for my wife for Christmas. Anyone have any experience with these models?

I believe CNET has some good reviews on that type thing Cap'n. Let me see if I can find a link for ya.

Here's their Garmin reviews:

You could scroll through that and find the two models.

The 205 is very highly rated on Amazon (4.5 stars) while the 1300 only has 3 stars. I typically like seeing the reviews from customers more than I do from "experts" at electronic sites, but that's just me.

i got a frakkin' headache today - too much firewater last nite

 

[Ble_PE]

^A bit of the dog that bit you supposedly works wonders. I was never brave enough to try it though.

Thanks for the links.

I'll probably just get whatever Walmart has when i go, but I think the spoken street name would be a nice feature to have.

we have a pot luck lunch at work today... I have a crock pot of my home made chili simmering away behind me... It is making me so hungry! I hope the chili survives until lunch!!!

 

[Santiagj]

Someone brought in reuben dip in a crock pot yesterday. It was awesome!

Posting from the Louisville Intergalactic* Airport. Heading to Dallas for Christmas.

* I call it Intergalactic because it is actually called International even though there are no international flights. As long as we are exaggerating, might as well shoot for the stars...literally.

 

[Santiagj]

You might be the last starfighter!

 

[Fluvial]

Have a safe trip wil!

 

[Ble_PE]

Have fun wil!! I'll be at the airport in about 9 hours or so.
