I have to agree that AirTran  is better than most, but so far I haven't 
flown on a single one that had seats far apart enough for a tall person 
unless you were willing to pay for a first class seat.  Since the flying 
I do anymore is mainly for pleasure, I simply don't fly anymore except 
for weddings, funerals, and such.
The same thing goes for cars.  The last Mercedes which had enough 
leg/knee room for a tall guy was the '73 240D.  Recently drove a '13 C 
model Mercedes loaner and it had less room than a Prius. Sad.

I was at Hobby airport in Houston once, waiting for my Southwest 
flight.  A rather large woman and her rather large daughter were 
checking in for their flight.  The woman at the desk told them they 
would each have to buy an extra ticket as they were too large to fit in 
the seat and as such would displace or inconvenience some other paying 
customer.  They both went ballistic and started the shaniqua theater.  
The desk woman just stood there looking at them, everyone else was sorta 
enjoying the spectacle too.  After a minute or so of the histrionics the 
desk woman told them they could either pay, leave, or go sit down and 
think about, but in any case they would need to calm down or she was 
calling security.  So they go sit down and are continuing with the 
performance though a bit more subdued. After about 15min they waddled 
off, I guess deciding they weren't going to pay so they weren't going 
anywhere.

I flew Delta once, when I retrieved the 99 4Matic.

Cheapest way from Lansing to Logan was via Detroit and DC.
Kept getting text messages that the Detroit-DC connection was delayed, until the 
ETA in DC was later than the takeoff time from DC. Got off my little turboprop 
connection from Lansing, went to the gate for my plane to DC, and asked the lady 
at the Delta desk for help. Turns out I should have just asked at the first 
Delta desk I encountered, as she rebooked me on a direct Detroit-Boston that was 
leaving in a few minutes, from the other end of the terminal, not far from where 
I got off the commuter plane from Lansing.


I felt OK about the deal, I got the Lansing-Detroit-Boston flight I originally 
wanted but didn't want to pay for, and got it for the price of the cheapest 
route, and avoided ever visiting the DC area.

The DR (Dominican Republic) or Dominica (the island)?

If you are going to the DR, be sure to go to the Jaragua. Great hotel and 
casino. Used to stay there a lot.

Oh, and be ready to observe abject poverty like you've never seen it before.

I didn't find Belize to be that bad, considering.  Well, Belize City is 
a SH that one should not go to but the countryside was fairly nice and 
the people seemed to be getting by fairly well.  And the brewery is 
right next to the airport so you can load up on the way away.


DR is run by 7 (?) families going back to colonial times, everyone else 
is superfluous.  And if you are black, having escaped the other end of 
the island, you are worse than superfluous.  Notice on the roads the 
houses built right up against them in what would be the right-of-way 
here -- that land is public so people build their houses there.  
Trucks rolling through these little villages at 70mph, the drivers would 
speed up to be macho.  Little kids playing in the roads, right up 
against it  I did manage to get a nice tropical trots disease in the 
DR, and got reported to the Board of Health when I got home and sorted out.

Re: [MBZ] Hotlanta?

2014-02-11 Thread Dan Penoff
One of those families was my customer.

Working around these guys was like being with the mob. Everyone treated them 
with reverence almost.

They owned the largest ferreteria in the country. Made Sam's Club look like a 
corner drugstore in comparison.  In the middle of the main selling floor the 
old man (grandfather) sat at a desk on a dais. All the salespeople had these 
receipt books where they wrote up your order, even if it was something in plain 
sight on the shelf. When they finished, they ran over to the dais and presented 
their book to the old man. He would take the big Dominican (and occasionally 
Cuban) cigar out of his mouth, look down and initial the receipt.

Then, and only then could you check out and pay for your things.

Only place I ever got the trots, too. Dummy me - I was at the customer's house 
one day and had a Coke with ice in it. Got dysentery from the ice. Hell of a 
weight loss program - I lost 15 pounds over the next week or two, and was lucky 
to get the company doctor to treat me. He kept telling me that the cure was as 
bad as the disease. Not so.

Re: [MBZ] Hotlanta?

2014-02-11 Thread rogerhga
Kaleb, 
The local weather and NWS is talking about tonight and Wednesday being the 
worst it's been since the great ice storm of '73 (which old folks still discuss 
with fear in their eyes) when some were without power for over 2 weeks. This is 
projected to be a rare event. I'm East of Atlanta, projected for about 1/2 inch 
of ice and then 1-3 inches of snow on top of that. Personally, I'm hunkering 
down. I've been through snow jam 82, the cold freeze of '85, and the more 
recent ice storms of I think 2001 or 2002. I'm a Northern boy, but these 
Southern weather events are more scary because no one is ever really prepared 
for them (generators, tire chains, etc. etc.). And we have so many pine trees 
that take down the power lines which a lot of the north does not have. 
Anyway, if I were you, I'd try to avoid Atlanta for the next 2 days. 
Be safe and best wishes, 
Roger

 Kaleb, 
 The local weather and NWS is talking about tonight and Wednesday being the 
 worst it's been since the great ice storm of '73 (which old folks still 
 discuss with fear in their eyes) when some were without power for over 2 
 weeks. This is projected to be a rare event. I'm East of Atlanta, projected 
 for about 1/2 inch of ice and then 1-3 inches of snow on top of that. 
 Personally, I'm hunkering down. I've been through snow jam 82, the cold 
 freeze of '85, and the more recent ice storms of I think 2001 or 2002. I'm a 
 Northern boy, but these Southern weather events are more scary because no one 
 is ever really prepared for them (generators, tire chains, etc. etc.). And we 
 have so many pine trees that take down the power lines which a lot of the 
 north does not have. 
 Anyway, if I were you, I'd try to avoid Atlanta for the next 2 days. 
 Be safe and best wishes, 
 Roger

You apparently haven't flown US Air enough. Every time they've tried to take me 
through Philadelphia they strand me there. The first time it took 16 hours to 
get to Las Vegas (a 6 hour trip) and 24 hours to get home. Then 24 hours to get 
to Cincinnati.

They tried like hell to strand me in Charlotte at one point telling me it'd be 
10 DAYS before they could get me home. I explained that I could buy a bicycle 
and pedal home faster.

Everybody who travels any amount has an airline they will not fly. Mine is US 
Air.

If there is gonna be a bit of exotic, coffee is cheap.  So I splurge
on coffee.  It is the guys in Mequon that have the big bucks for
grinders and stuff.  I just go hang out and let them tell their
stories and drink espresso and good food.  They bring good food.

DR has always been a typical Central/South American/Caribbean sh*thole due to 
the awful government and rampant corruption.  The only place worse than it I
