Morning PC, VAn, SD, and Michel...
SD: I normally arrive at the airport an hour before for a flight domestically. This is cause of the lineups fo rchecking in baggage (pain in the ass) and because after checking in your bag, you have to go through the metal detector security check.. which is usually an even longer line. Remember its christmas time.. so there will be lots and lots of people.
I found out this morning I will be leaving after xmas but right before new years.. <sigh> at least its xmas at home this year then.
Michel: Theres nothign wrong with buying very very useful stuff from losers like you described.. I have a closet full of such useless stuff. I mean, I really need two pairs of cowboy boots and tow pairs of other leather dress boots. I wear them all the time.. dont you? (not) I have two leather jackets, I wear one once a month or so. The other Im keeping as a spare for when my first one wears out in the year 3000.
PC: Its much more fun to be camping in the snow, and to have the snow start to come off the branches from high up when you are in a tent.. Its really neat to be woken up by a loud sound, then sound of something slamming into your tent, your tent roof rushing at you until four inches above your face, panic, all your covers come off so you are in the fareezing cold, the roof rebounds, you are wide awake, shivering, and feeling like a fool. Repeat every hour or so. I love winter camping!
