choice.  we could have gotten 2 RTs in coach for 80k.  going to end up at 225k instead.  decided I wasn't going to sit for 9 hours in a coach seat each way.  normal business class is 100k each and normal first is, like, 150k each (maybe 200k, not sure).  got milesaver first/bus on our dates so we went for it.  I'm going to go all super daraius trip report on the seats and food and junk.

makes sense. btw, i'm almost 100% daraius absolutely does not like brian. he pretty much has said so by not saying anything. was super quick to defend gary and mommypoints in regards to links, etc but said nothing about brian. i've decided i'm team daraius and no longer like tpg. just an fyi in case you want to pick sides as well. we could either gang up on brian together or do some kind of team thing where you defend him and talk him up and i trash him and call him a genetic freak mongloid freak.

well here's the thing about lucky... you read his blog and you think he is probably 54. but nope. he's like still a college student or something. he's basically the bookcat or travelpoint blogs. let's cut to the chase though, bottom line is that i absolutely hate tpg guy now as well as anybody who doesn't hate him. he's not reputable and i will punch him in the thigh as hard as i can if i ever run into him at an airport somewhere. just so we know where we all stand in regards to this.

stayed at a marriott this weekend and the fire alarm went off at 4:00 AM. :(

They gave me 5,000 free points for my troubles.
Where did you get that overnight bag?

My thoughts would be if you wanted to get a Delta/AA card, you can get both now and in the future their points may merge
