From Cillaliz:Was that your personal opinion or their official one? I have never heard of such a thing, nor has Keith who practically lived at airports & on planes during his business career.

Ambient temperature is a factor in computing the maximum allowable passenger loading:

The actual takeoff weight limit is calculated by the use of various performance charts, taking into account such factors as: Runway length, temperature, density altitude, runway slope, and wind conditions.

Good Afternoon!

Well... It looks like I'll have to head out for a bit to run some errands. Thankfully, according to the weather reports, it's not that bad today since the humidity seems to be in check again. However, tomorrow and Wednesday... $:-\$

OH! And I just got a call from a friend of mine who used to live in Richmond. He moved to Texas last year, but happens to be in town this week for some business, so it looks like I'll be meeting him later for dinner.

And that's the report for now...

Laters...

It was a regional jet. They were under weight restrictions because of the 100 degree heat. That was the announced reason. We were on standby for Frontier for awhile because they had weight restrictions due to heat as well.

When I lived in AZ there were a couple days that the temps were over 120 and they had to ground the planes because their weight/temp charts didn't go over 120.

There were a lot of times when I traveled from Phoenix to IA in the summer that they wouldn't put any luggage on the plane and then would fly it up on a night flight and deliver it the next day. That was all heat related as well.

I'm a wooden rollercoaster kind of girl. None of this new fangled stuff for me. I was on a roller coaster when it broke once, that wasn't a lot of fun. But I did go back on it again.

I may just not have been in the mood to watch Desperate Hours - I'll give it another go. The transfer was certainly terrific.

Had the jog, and must now do some errands.

This is about where we were when the Zambizi Zinger broke. The car in front of us got off the track and was shooting sparks at us...I will never forget that night

Sorry about the big photo, I can't make it smaller from my work computer, can anyone help me with that?

I will see what I can do, DRCILLA LIZ.

Vibes for DR ELMORE, DR VIXMOM, and DRDAKOTACELT.....from Indiana.

I think we finally have everything OUT of Molly's house, but I inherited a LOT of stuff....plus three bookcases which I finally got here....and spent 5 1/2 hours setting up ... including getting rid of some furniture...

Whew! And it's too darn hot!

Cillaliz · « **Reply #75 on:** July 31, 2006, 11:43:11 AM »

Thanks JRand. That was a scary night. We sat up there for about an hour and they finally climbed up and had to back us down the spiral to the ground

The Racer - the wooden coaster at Paramount's Kings Island is my favorite....although I also like The Beast with its turns and tunnels....but it has been so many years since I was there, they might not even exist anymore.

I have never played an arcade game in my life.

Hmmmmm.....is that Mr John(ny) Williams playing the piano and conducting the orchestra in the Tony Polar-nightclub sequence of VALLEY OF THE DOLLS?

Thank you all for the vibes! I am now booked on the first flight to Dayton, OH, tomorrow morning. I will be out of here around 7 AM, so keep those vibes coming! The older I get, the more I fret about flying.

DR RonPulliam, I had meant to comment about your DVD frustration yesterday. I feel the same. I don't know if it's "too-many-DVDs-too-little-time" panic or simple frustration over making a decision, but I am truly sympathetic. It took me over a week of procrastination to get to JULIUS CAESAR yesterday, but only 45 minutes to tell myself I never wanted to see the play again.

I also missed THE OPPOSITE SEX on TCM yesterday (damn!). The older I get, the harder it is to get my life together as well.

If you overshoot Ohio, DR ELMORE, give me a call.

My sister-in-law and chef par excellence Jo Ann just called: my dad is in ICU, his white blood count is low and he is once again suffering from dehydration. God alone knows where this is going.

Matt H. · « **Reply #85 on:** July 31, 2006, 01:13:24 PM »

It is excruciatingly hot and muggy here. Just miserable conditions, and tomorrow promises to be even worse with heat index soaring above 100 degrees.

For now, though, DR Elmore, he's in the best place. They'll take good care of him. Do you need any help tomorrow, transportation-wise?

I really would be curious to know what kind of journey that DVD was on during all that time. I mailed it FIRST CLASS, and it should have been there two days later.

A nice afternoon of reading and video/TV watching. I began with ENTOURAGE. A good episode last night. Things looked grim for all of our "heroes" by the halfway point of their various stories, but by the end, at least a couple of them seemed to have turned around their misfortunes. Sure makes next week's episode a don't-miss one!

Matt H. · « **Reply #89 on:** July 31, 2006, 01:19:59 PM »

RENO 911! had its best episode of the season last night. Paul Rubens dropped by as the primary guest star, and several skits were really laugh-out-loud funny. We had the return of my favorite side character - roller-skating Teddy who refused to serve the police free tacos.
