Even Han solo had a blaster, something most of these people do not.
That's for Precheck, not touchless ID Precheck, which kids cannot use because the requirement for touchless ID is 18 or older.

Funny enough, on Delta I could activate it on kid profiles for whatever that's worth, but AA rejected them due to age.

ETA: well apparently kids can use so that's good
Are you sure it's Lucifer and not Lucien?

ETA: Ah, class roster would have it spelled out. Fair enough.

My kid comes home and mealy mouths words all the time that make me wonder until I investigate he said something wrong.
All these people named and Morris Peterson can't get no respect.
This is going to bother me because the odds of an update that diagrams this out and what went wrong with her specifically is probably low.

I said, I have kids, I'm not annoyed at the kids. I'm annoyed at the parents not bringing headphones. I bring my kids headphones.

How did you get child abuse out of that? :lol:

I have kids. I'm not annoyed at the kid.
Other airlines already have this.

The worst offenders so far have been people with kids.

Those iPads make the most annoying sounds for that age group :lol:

I was at a country hotel property that had acres of grass and they had a few of these just rolling around the property all day.

Grass looked great but I never got around to asking how much human intervention is needed

What you describe is the norm at every school but maybe less than 20? And has been for 150 years.


I should have been more specific. That's the norm for the most part due to the obligation to fund non revenue sports. Many football and basketball programs in the major conferences are profitable before the athletic department spends on the other sports.

When KU basketball is losing money and the academic side has to fund it we're really off-road here.
We've definitely lost the plot when the athletics department of a university is losing money and the academic side starts funding the sports.
I don't think I totally agree. My information may be out of date, and while they do not have their own state, they have a semi autonomous zone in Iraq. Prior to ISIL, I even saw mainstream travel magazines promoting travel to Erbil as they were allegedly administering the area well.

So while they haven't gotten what they really want, I don't think they've gotten zero either.

Noticed it during COVID but I definitely could have just missed it for the 30 odd years prior.

Probably the usage went up from certain situations to a more blanket usage.
I'm gonna need that GE in a couple weeks. I'm gonna be so pissed going through normal immigration :lol:

Downloaded that MPC app or whatever just in case

That’s the only thing keeping that “war” going. Maybe it will end now.


Are we not considering the drones Iran built for Russia and how those might be completely cut off?

Yep, it was a slow motion car crash for 45 minutes. I felt like I was watching my parents fighting. You could feel the mood shift in the theater. If that's what the director was going for they nailed that part.
We're pretty lucky they weren't the Taliban/ISIL type that blew up their history. There's a ton of cool ancient stuff there and some great architecture. Plenty of people traveled there on other passports.
Haven't seen the movie probably since the theaters. I recall it being heavily promoted as a comedy, which it does do for like the first 1/3 or half, then I remember it being a brutal watch for the back half.
