Where you sit in order on the resv list accurate with 4 day group guys or do you have to look at raw for who is next for a trip?

That's exactly why you should put in a High Yellow for a trip that will have you sitting in a good layover bar, beer in hand, when the game comes on, not sitting at home, waiting for the phone to ring...with a dry mouth and a loud wife. Some of my best game watching was on layovers, because the Wife was AT HOME! In fact, a year ago for the Super Bowl, I was in SYD on a layover.

But we found a bar open, the game came on at 10am Monday Morning (local time). We talked them into firing up the pizza ovens too! We were the only ones in the place until about noon and had 5 big screen TV's all to ourselves, so everyone on every side of the table could see the game. Lots of pizza, beer, and plenty of time to recover when the game ended, about 2pm local!

No, actually they make you pay more.....

JK, I don't know about lift tickets, I have the Colorado card and get almost half price but I have used my DAL employment to get 20% off of lodging several times. Just mention it to the res people.

I always have a YS in for that reason. Would rather be drinking on per diem than my own nickle. Too many prostitutes in my position that will WS anything 3 days or less, even weekends.

As of now, sitting on my butt in the crashpad unless the myth of "mother of all sick call days" happens soon. How about you?

When the thought of one more kid finally outweighs my juvenile pre-occupation with protecting the jewels, I'll make the responsible choice and stop over-populating the earth. Until then, as you said so eloquently:

Why do they call it "fixed" when it does not work any more?
