Thanks, Deb. I had the presidential delay years ago during the Clinton administration. It was right here in Newark, too. I really wouldn't mind I had some food. The security line took forever. They actually sent some of ut to the international security line to move things along. I really thought I had it made when I found out I could go home a day early. Right now, I'd rather be back in my hotel room enjoying some room service or take-out.

While I was expecting a much more eloquent response since you seem to have the time and all I understand your frustration.

It's going to be sunny here tomorrow. Are you off the ground yet?

PS - I hope the fat guy smells.


He doesn't yet, but give him time. Fat guy> <LB

“Our coalition and airline passengers everywhere wish to thank the members and leadership of the Senate Commerce Committee for this important legislation,” said Ms. Hanni. Chief proponents of the three-hour limit were Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) and Senator Olympia Snowe (R-ME). Chairman Rockefeller (D-WV) introduced the bill on behalf of Ranking Member Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX), and the leadership of the Aviation Operations, Safety and Security Subcommittee, Chairman Byron L. Dorgan (D-ND) and Ranking Member Jim DeMint (R-SC).
Finally, bipartisanship!

Look at the bright side of things. What better place is there to be stuck than New Jersey? I'll see if I can get Snooki to visit with you.

If I was unable to get a flight out, I was going to give you a call, Rob. But I got on this flight, so as you can see, things really worked out for me

Now would seem to be a good time to start.
