I'd be more entertaining if I hadn't just gone through a rather unpleasant 60 hrs enroute! It was truly an endurance test of epic proportion.

Newark, the butthole airport of the eastern seaboard and I have to pass through there again next week! Yikes. At least I missed the earthquake.

And +44F ! Dave says he isn't going to bother plowing. Met the Mrs. this morning, she's nice.

Did you see there have been two more quakes in NJ? I am going to check on my flight path to see if I can skip the Newark leg and get to the Denver connection, maybe through Boston instead. If they keep up, last night was a 4.8 and a 2.? in the same area which also causes shutdowns everywhere.

I'll be calling the airline today and get any changes locked in before everyone else figures that part out!

You ain't making friends with NJ/NY DUer's, that count on Newark to make connections.

Like I told you yesterday, I have been to that airport twice and both times had to spend the night there, I have a right to an unfavorable opinion.

And besides, many of the people from the area whom I had brief conversations agreed about the butthole thing, only it's five times bigger now.

2 weeks ago, I thought my 500ft road (100ft riser) was in good shape. Now, twin streams as 2 feet of snow gets shed. Such is life.
