Bereavement fares are based on the highest unrestricted price for the flights, not the low fares, JZ, so finding a regular last minute fare has always been cheaper for us.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Laura, bless you! I did notice that about Fort Lauderdale, and Hec says (he just staggered up for coffee) that yep, it's not too far away.

“Not dead yet!”
And frankly, JZ, FLL is a MUCH better airport to fly into. Easier to get in and out of and much less congested than MIA. If at all possible, I'd recommend flying into there.

Our wings are not tired.
What Barb said about FLL. It is super easy to get in and out, unlike the horror that is MIA.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
ER's finale was basically satisfying. It was nice to see how everyone turned out. They got one more greusome birth/death in there so that's nostalgic too. I was disappointed to see that Kem continues to maintain her perpetual state of looking beautiful and tragic and utterly shutting out Carter (who, interestingly enough, ALSO had a son die). I STILL have no idea why he stays with her, even before Joshua's death she was pretty much beautiful, smug, and shutting out Carter.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Happy birthday, Tom! And woo to Theo's mom! That's great news.
My company finds out at 11 whether we are getting this certification we are going for. We've been working hard on it for months. If we get it we can bid on lots more contracts which = continued employment for me. Which would be nice. So, if you guys don't mind sending some positive results -ma B'more way in an hour that would be great. I'm pretty anxious about it (and the rain...stupid hole in roof).
