OMG, the whole Fillion/Firefly thing in XKCD is killing me. Especially the mouse-over text.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Someone got you a girl for mother's day?

Ain't I lucky? Actually, that's a picture of Abby that was taken as part of a school project and that she very proudly presented to me for Mother's Day.

My wife is a serious vermicomposter so for Mother's Day Emaryn gave her a bottle with rotting leaves and a bunch of worms she collected. It was pretty cute.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My brother came home from Vermont for Mother's Day. I can't top that.
(Actually, he came home last Monday, for a week, and it was because the restaurant was closed for renovations; it just happened to be over Mother's Day. Lucky bastard.)

So flying into Atlanta it looks like Delta, AirTran and Frontier are my options. Which should I avoid?

Atlanta's the hub for Delta, but as far as I'm concerned, they're the Debbil. I can't remember the last time I had an on-time flight connection with Delta and their counter/customer service employees have been completely insensitive jackasses.
Air Tran's not much better, IMO.
The one and only time I flew Frontier, I fell immediately in love with them. They're like the western U.S. equivalent of JetBlue and I was highly sad when they stopped providing service to Jacksonville. Flying with them reminded me of what flying used to be like-- fun. Plus, they had the most leg room of any other airline outside of JetBlue that I can recall.
