snow excuse

I wonder if the airlines (in this case, American) are
purposely cancelling flights which they might otherwise, if they were
still making boatloads of cash, because of bad weather.

That's my guess. American Eagle cancelled just about all of its
Philadephia-Boston flights today, including mine. Thanks Don Carty! Well,
I'm not sure what I expect for a $170 fare. I'm sure not getting dinner,
booze, a hot towel, and a movie. I'm just thankful when flight attendant
on these Embraer Regional Jet flights smiles and at least pretends to be
pleasant. I'm also happen when I get there on-time and on the right day...
Yeah, as if!

Anyway, back on topic, yeah, it snowed today. We got around eight inches
here in the near-Philly 'burbs. Other areas south and east got more, some
got less north, northeast, and west of here. Woop dee doo. That up there
is a photo from early this morning looking out my window (it's a car going
by, the shutter speed was really, really low).

So, that's my story. I'm going to Boston tomorrow instead. Of course,
there's snow predicted for Monday, right about the time I'm scheduled to
come back. That happened to me once before. We did racetrack circles
somewhere over Allentown for three hours while they plowed the runway in
Philly. The flight is usually an hour. I sure hope that doesn't happen
again. :(

Who has a crappily written post this time? HAW. HAW.

Yep, it happies -- I mean happens -- to the best of us from time to time.
Of course, your error rate in a couple weeks of "blogging" is already
higher than mine is in six months.

Case in point: I spelled "the" correctly in the original entry whereas
your comment did not. :p
