Hey Smith, I am good.
Sad weekend.
THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!!!
IN AND OUT OF THE RING made his transition.

Farewell Muhammad ALi,
Man will I miss him.

On a lighter note.
Fathers Day is coming up quick.
I have moved from Chicago.
I live in a suburb.

Things are not as good as they use to be in Chi Town.
Yep, Ron still going crazy,
Bros. Shooting up the place.
Deep dish pizza still very nice,
Cabrini and Robert Taylor torn down now.

Squares are around 8-10 bucks, you must go to Gas station for cheap-cheap smokes.

Smith744-
I hear ya on the 9/11 thing! Air Jamaybe was supposed to begin gates at Dulles, about 25 min from where we lived when the travel industry crashed and the whole thing fell through.

My best travel memories are Air Jamaybe!
Anyone else remember being able to check in your luggage for AJ flights are your resort the morning of your flight? It was awesome! Checked it in, loaded in a truck, got boarding passes and didn't have to see our checked luggage again until we got home! Hung out at Hedo for several more hours before transport close to our flight time because with boarding passes in hand we could go straight to security and on the the gate.

Breakfast! Air Jamaybe gave me scrambled eggs and sausage breakfast on the plane along with mimosa's all at no extra charge!

I got bumped off AirJamaybe once and they gave my wife and I first class tickets the next day, a check for $400 each, a typed letter about it in case getting back a day late caused a problem at work, free transfers to and from a night at a nearby A-I (Sunset Beach Resort).

Damn I miss how travel used to work! Now it's like I have to be thankful an airline is willing to let me give them my money. Sad times!

Smith, if you want to check out the north, you should visit northern Michigan. It's a really nice area, lots to see and do for free/cheap. The UP is awesome, but that would be a long haul for you.

The skeeters up there are no joke, especially in mid to late summer. I have some stories about the bugs up there in general, but not enough time today to post. The black flies are the worst, just vicious little things. It's still worth it though.
