Well, final nail in the box kinda message. Travel, non GMC. Flew from
Prague, Czech Republic to Kennedy yesterday. Plane was over an hour late to
the gate in Prague. Delayed loading, and flight. Subsequently, about 2
hours delayed arriving in JFK. Our connecting flight to Portland, long
gone. No more West Coast flights available. DELTA offered to fly us to
Atlanta. Yes, that's sure on the way to Portland, NOT. Put us up overnight
in the Hilton. We will see what today brings. Still, USA is wayyyy better
than the alternative.

Headed for the barn, I hope.
