Talk about freaking Icing on the cake... (just for you Vulcan)
Flight out of ATL today was late. I literally sprinted to my connecting flight here in Milwaukee, they had started boarding, sat down, only to be told the flight is canceled because of snow in Grand Rapids
they book me on a 4:35, now I have to kill 3.5 hours in an airport 30 minutes from my home and own bed. did I say:
THAT flight gets held because of overbooking and over weight, they tell us they won't start boarding until they get volunteers to stay in Milwaukee and fly out tomorrow. By now I am so pissed there is nothing stopping me from getting to Grand Rapids to my bosses car (which I left some luggage including the keys to my apartment in), and getting a beer or 12; even if I have to run out there in the non-snow, beat up the second of 2 WOMEN pilots I had today, and fly the ******* plane there myself. ******* women, what good are they other than serving me $6 bloody marys while I ogle their legs?
Oh yeah, remember the guy with me on the different flight? he flew out of Detroilet 5 minutes after my flight was "canceled because of snow" and landed to dry tarmac in Grand Rapids.
I still have to get the Cisco router and $6000 printer loaded up in the car and drive it back to Milwaukee for use Monday morning.
If you ask: why not spend the night in Milwaukee and fly out the next day, what the hell would I do? stay in a hotel in my home town, not have a car to go do stuff, and have to get up at 6 am to get back to the airport? hells nos.
So here I am in a Days Inn in Grand Rapids, Obviously not enough prayed for me
2 Good things came out of it all. See my reply to this thread for 1:

That is one seriously fun and underrated sports car. yes the views suck, blind spots every where, clutch is horrid, ergonomics all shot to hell, but I did 2 flat donuts on dry pavement, held it in first, kept full control and burned the F out of dodge from the parking lot, and I haven't owned a stick car for 15 years. I will say the torque curve is hosed, don't even try and let it our quick in second gear, you will put the passenger's coffee ALL over their coat, shirt, and lap even through that little hole in the lid MUHAHAHAHAHAHA.
