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.

I've run into delays due to worrisome mechanical difficulties on a number of Air Tran flights. The ticket agents and flight attendants were nice about everything, but I think I might prefer dealing with snotty employees since their attitudes lack the potential to make skydiving a new unintentional hobby of mine.

Timelies all!

We're going to see Tanglefoot in concert tonight. Yay!

It's their final tour. Boo! (They have been performing in some configuration for 25 years, so I guess they're entitled to move on or retire or whatever the members are doing.)

Too bad Frontier doesn't have a non-stop flight. It's like four extra hours of travel for the better service and leg room.

I like Delta, but I'm sure familiarity is part of it. I've had more trouble on other airlines.

Well that's the ticket I got since it was cheapest non-stop.

Where should I get a hotel so we can get together either for late dinner on Friday or breakfast on Saturday?

Woot. New Megan McCafferty book in the works. This sounds like it could have be set at my school

Alessandra Balzer at Balzer & Bray/HarperCollins Children’s Books acquired World English rights to New York Times bestselling author Megan McCafferty’s new novel in a two-book deal from Heather Schroder at ICM. Bumped is a sharply funny and provocative dystopian novel set in a world where only teens are able to have babies, and are contracted by adults to carry them to term. Megan is best known for her Jessica Darling series, which started with Sloppy Firsts and most recently ended with Perfect Fifths.

We have the Roomba 550? I think and love it. It is a real workhorse and we use it every day. Our floors are tile and we have two dogs, one of whom sheds a ton. I can't imagine living without it. (ok, that's hyperbole). The dogs don't mind it but Frisco is scared/fascinated by it. He walks over to it, points, says " 'ba" , almost touches the button, and then runs away.
