So... Since I'm not watching "Big Brother"...

This "High School Musical" program on ABC is quite interesting. It's kind of cool - and encouraging - seeing how the judges and the auditionees handle the No's. Very positive all around.

I've learned to shove it deep into my pocket or move it into my purse. It's not like I plan on answering the phone while I'm in there. The odd thing is how many people chat away while using public bathrooms. From Keith's observation's I believe men do this far more than woman.

A good thing for women to remember when using public restrooms. Never put your purse down on the stall floor, but always hold on to it, or hang it on a hook. The germs that the bottom of your purse picks up from a restroom floor is more terrifying than you can imagine. Take it from someone who has experienced MRSA first hand; you do not want to carry those germs out of the bathroom on the bottom of your purse.

I'm just wondering - and hoping - they didn't put everyone on the plane and then have them sit on the tarmac for the past couple of hours.

I keep thinking the same thing. One stormy winter in Detroit they let us off the plane until it was time to board again-so very, very nice of them.

I had the pleasure of going to a business convention with Keith. There was a big snow storm & the driver was late picking me up (thank goodness I wasn't driving). It was also the night of the Detroit Car Show & traffic was horrendous. I would have missed my flight if it hadn't been delayed. This was before we had cell phones (only car phones) & poor Keith was waiting anxiously at the airport for me.

No, they are still not on the plane - the plane is there, and so is the crew, and the bags are loaded - but there is no pilot! I won't talk about it too much, since I'm sure it will all be in the notes.

I'm relieved to know Bruce isn't sitting on the plane. Do you know where the pilot is?

Thank you DR Kerry. I will post after I email Keith's mother.

Just finished a really marvelous debut novel by Andre Aciman, Call Me By Your Name.

Beautiful, and beautifully written.

I have read rave notices about that book.

Bryan says their Chevre is excellent. I will have to see if they sell it here.

How can Jet Blue say that the actual estimated arrival time for Flight 355 is now 7:17 p.m.? That plane hasn't even departed yet, and it is going on 6:00 p.m. Is Jet Blue using the old SST planes?

What?

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #310 on:** July 27, 2008, 05:58:19 PM »

Well... At least it's listed as "Boarding" now. Flight 355, that is.

Jane · « **Reply #311 on:** July 27, 2008, 05:58:26 PM »

Estimated departure is 8:50PM.
Estimated arrival is 11:51PM

What?

By the time that plane takes off, it will be 6:00 pm. I don't think a plane can make to Burbank in an hour and 17 minutes. Can it?

Jane · « **Reply #313 on:** July 27, 2008, 06:00:25 PM »

DR TCB, you were reading an earlier post, prior to the current time schedule. And that was estimated departure, not arrival.

Okay, now it has updated to 11:51 pm. It was saying 7:17 up to a few moments ago.

No, Jane, I was reading what Jet Blue had on the computer as the arrival time in Burbank. It has now been corrected.

Jane · « **Reply #316 on:** July 27, 2008, 06:03:13 PM »

DR TCB, I thought you were reading an earlier post. I have no idea where you saw that time on JetBlue's sight. There must have been a brief glitch.

The other day when I was tracking Ioana's flight the satellite map showed the plane approaching NY, then for several minutes it showed her plane back over the ocean with 4 hours of traveling time left. I punched the info again and her plane was landing at the airport.

I remember when I got my last cellphone, the salesperson's first and main reason for buying the cellphone insurance was "just in case you drop it in the toilet or urinal". I guess that happens a lot. Thankfully, not to me.

I've heard of not being able to walk and chew gum at the same time, but not being able to talk and ... uh, well, this is a family site.

I go in from http://jetblue.com It takes me to a slightly different page than yours.

Hmm.. I'm guessing JetBlue's site must be a little "busy" right now. I just checked the flight status for BK's flight a couple of time over the past few minutes. It changed each time I refreshed the window. Sometimes for the better (sooner), sometimes for the worse (later). Now it's giving an estimated departure of 9:05pm (EST) and an arrival time of 12:05am (PST). Well... I hope he can at least sleep a while on the plane.

If only we could spread some of that weather out over other parts of the country -- like Arizona, for example. We would welcome some rain.

DR elmore, did my phone number register so you could save it in your contact list?

Yes, Nursie! And I've begun the tedium of collecting everybody else. The emails are out and the numbers are rolling in.

That is exactly the same place I went, Jane, and then I clicked on Tracking A Flight, which took me to the other page that I posted. I was saving you a step.

It only took me 19 months on how to get the most out of the old cell. I am in trouble by my calculations. I can find nothing, nada, zip on this new one!

Earlier today, I posted travel vibes for BK.

Obviously, they didn't work.

Either that, or I'm a jinx.

I'm not going to post travel vibes again.

For anyone.

Ever.

Unless I want to jinx them.

Have you checked Verizon online to see if there is some sort of fact sheet and/or on-line tutorial for your phone?

Well, according the JetBlue's site, bk's flight departed at 9:03pm, so... Maybe there was some sort of time delay/warp.
