I have flown over 100 flights in 2007. During that entire time I have never missed a connection or been stranded without being able to get where I was going. That is, I have never been stranded until last night.

One of my neighbors is seriously pissed about the fence. I had [...]
The Tennessee Titans are playing the Denver Broncos tonight. I am really looking forward to the game and want to see the Titans show up an play four quarters of football*. However, due to fantasy football I am going to be cheering with some caveats.
