If you were near your cookbooks you wouldn't be having such a rollicking-good time in the airport.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Excellent points, both. And the FA has already said that there will be no bullshit on her flight. Me, I have noise canceling headphones and a freshly charged iPod with the final TV episode that I've been saving.

Would anyone like to post a favorite blender-requiring recipe so that I can break this bad boy in right?
MARGARITAS.
eta recipe:
1.5 oz tequila
1oz triple sec or other orange flavored liqueur
Juice of one lime
Ice.
blend, baby blend!
I should add that this recipe is totally approximate. If I were doing it, the recipe would be
some tequila
a little less triple sec
squeeze half a lime, taste, add some more.
add ice. blend till slushy. taste.
Add some more tequila.

I have pickled asparagus but they don't want to be eaten out of the jar, they want to attain their rightful place as bloody mary stirrers. I had a packet of soy sauce for dinner but don't feel bad for me, I had a huge burrito on the way to work.

oh well yeah. And we almost did do that yesterday, but I was thinking more along the lines of gazpacho or mamma Stamberg's cranberry relish. I want him to understand that he is going to be an integral part of my kitchen and not "just" a bartender.

Somehow, I am leaning towards Larry. I don't know why.

For some reason I think my blender's name is Lou. I have never named an appliance before.

That is going a little far. Asshat & fan club deserve to be denied their tickets (even though it is unlikely to happen) because nothing that has happened is either the fault of the ground or flight crew. That does not mean that nothing that has happened is the fault of the airlines. Most "weather" delays and maintenance delays are in fact the fault of airlines.
Many weather delays occur not due to unusually bad weather but due to booking of too many flights too close together so that you are guaranteed delays if the weather is less than perfect. (Look up some of the old "ask the pilot" columns on Salon for more on this.) Maintenance delays are due to the fact that one of the places airlines save money these days is on maintenance; this tends to replace delays for prevention with delays for repairs, so it is not smart. But it is common.
Now maybe JetExpress is an exception to this. I know it is nowhere as bad as United. But don't be too quick to assume they are not at fault -- even though that is no excuse for asshats giving a hard time to ordinary employees who have zero role in setting policy .
