Still in Denver waiting on another plane. The gate lady just said on the intercom "I hope this is a good plane."

My anxiety is rising with every update Greg.....
Re: Take Me to the Hot Spots
It's the strangest I've ever been through.
Re: Take Me to the Hot Spots
They just announced boarding and a round of applause went up like we get after a Wildcat touchdown.

If so, you will be passing right by ECC's digs in CT.
Enjoy.

Pat's vs. Geno's Cheesesteak. You decide.
Geno is a raging Trumper. The guys at Pat's are kind of rude, but I guess that's Philly for you.
We liked Geno's better when we were there like 13 years ago. When he found out we were from Arizona he told us how happy he was we had passed SB1070 here. He's very anti-immigration.
Don't the Philly people tell you they both suck and there's several better places? Compared to anything out here in AZ they are both awesome.

Re: Take Me to the Hot Spots
They don’t say it sucks but they prefer other spots like John’s Roast Pork, Joe’s or Dalessandro’s. But like New Haven thin crust pizza near me it’s just a matter of personal preference.UAEebs86 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 11, 2022 12:11 pmEastCoastCat wrote: ↑Tue Oct 11, 2022 10:47 amYou ain't missing much.

Re: Take Me to the Hot Spots
Hitting LA the first week in October. Wife want to go to Disney Land and hit the beach for a day or two. It will be the first time in almost 30 years going to Disney Land without children. Then November 10-14 in Vegas for the MGA Tour World championships where I've qualified for the 7th year in a row.

Re: Take Me to the Hot Spots
I'd go just for the Belgian Fries...and those dipping sauces.
Back when I was an undergrad (98ish) there was a great place on University called the European Fry Company. About as close to real Belgian or Dutch frites as I've found outside the real deal. Frittesauce...mmm. Belgian mayo that really got me into mayos other than Hellmans...Too bad they only lasted a year or two sadly.

Re: Take Me to the Hot Spots
My wife and I are planning to take our two sons (12 and 15) to Costa Rica for spring break, has anyone made this trip with kids? Any tips would be appreciated as I have never been and it seems like there are several options for areas to set up shop.

Just booked a week in London with the wife next month. Excited to see Jolly Ol’!
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

Re: Take Me to the Hot Spots
London is goddamn amazing. Easily one of the greatest cities I’ve ever visited.
One more night here then back to reality tomorrow. Very very sad to leave. I could spend three weeks here and never get bored.

Find a pub that serves Yorkshire beer. It's divine. Enjoy real bacon. Go to the theater district. Come home broke.

I have been in Buenos Aires since the 7th of this month. If you love beef and Malbec, this is your paradise. AirBnB’s in nice neighborhoods are very cheap too.
