I always wondered what highly educated scientists do in their labs...

bitterness seems to be the word that is usually used to describe any woman who dares to make observations about shit that men don't agree with. That, and "bitch".

Are you going overseas? The only time I have had luggage lost was when going overseas and having to transfer flights (also out of country) to get there. I made the assumption, since you cited Miami as a possible destination for your bags rather than say Malaysia, that you are staying within the US. I think Mattp is right about folks not needing to worry much about baggage getting lost. The system that is used to direct luggage is actually quite sophisticated (a really cool mechanical maze). Oh, and by the by, it is generally illegal to take "irreplaceable artifacts" out of country unless they are documented and shipped with fore-notice and approval.

shhhhhhh you'll get creamed

If you don't have a connecting flight, you chances of them losing your stuff is fairly slim. Keep your chin up, it will work out fine.

hey, that's a good idea. What insurance covers this? I think the airport has something measley like $100 per bag or something. I think you can purchase extra insurance, but I have never done this. It would be good to hear from someone who has done so.

congratulations to you both! Welcome to the American dream

Agreed. They go through your carry on with a fine tooth comb; including removing everything from your bag if it is packed full (at least, this is what I saw happen at the airport. Maybe your experience will be different).

my weenie attacked a deer once.

Actually, there is usually a NWS warning, which makes it forseeable.

The two weeks are up.

Highlight of the story: you have a reamer tool.

The huckleberries are better though.

Anyone else check this thread at work? WTF Moderator?

Where do *you* go in?

I'm big wherever I go.

They're called mochi.Japanese food is the best. And good for ya'. Nope. Mochi is the frozen pseudo-ice cream thing. Very high in calories. Nope. Mochi is simply glutinous rice (mochigome) that's been pounded or otherwise processed into a paste like consistency. It’s eaten in a variety or ways and in combination with a variety of foods (e.g., ice cream), but it is not ice cream, pseudo or otherwise. FYI. Whatever. Joke: "It is a brave man who farts while in Asia" Get it?

Sweet pics!
