[BLEEP] happens.

I hope you're wearing Jags gear.  

Seems like a lot of it happened that day.  My original flight was nonstop, Fort Lauderdale to Denver.  Three hours after that was canceled, I was rerouted for a "quick" connection in DFW.

On the ground 15 minutes early.  The last 45 minutes was a screaming baby flight.  I can't wait to get to the damn gate.

And I had your experience when I came back for the tacks game.  I was 4 hours late getting into Jax and two DAYS late getting home.
I got stranded in Dallas for two days and two nights because the originating flight out of Jacksonville had to divert in order to fly around a storm front and then had to land in New Orleans to refuel. This caused me to miss my flight in DFW to Korea. I had to wait two days before a seat opened up on another flight. Unfortunately, my baggage made the original flight so I was without a change of clothes for 3 days. Fortunately, I was able to get into a hotel near the airport so showers and sleep were not an issue. I could smell my rank shirt by the time we landed in Seoul.

On the back of this post I will pass out a warning.

NEVER, and I mean NEVER, drive your boat within 20 feet of a pelican sitting on a channel marker, piling, dock post or whatever as they do have the ability and incredibly accurate aim to projectile shat the most noxious of all bird shats upon earth directly at and on you.

I'll leave it at that. Sick Sick Undecided

Springtime fresh would not have been an accurate description.
At one of my favorite places, sitting on the intercoastal...or is that intracoastal...watching the sun set while enjoying a lovely margarita at Caps.

Stopped at Buc'cees just for the hell of it this afternoon.  I can see the 'newness' still hasn't worn of yet.  It was a madhouse.  I never see the one near Fort Worth looking like that unless there's a race.  Note: I did get fudge and jerky to take back to the hotel.

That’s cuz there is only four on the east coast. So anyone coming down 95 is gonna hit them up.

As I’m reading this I’m thinking Caps.  Then well , you said it. 

Still haven’t been to Bucees.  Maybe when you fly back the neck time you can let me know if the newness wore off.  Too many people there for my liking.

From what I see this is an accurate take.  There’s a neighborhood off the road that Bucees is on.  It’s a giant “u” shaped road that connects IGP at two points.  One point by the Gate, the other by Bucees. As we leave the neighborhood we go out like most would be leaving Bucees.  And there are A Lot of out of state plates leaving the joint. They seem to have found a great spotBetween locals wanting the merch and interstate travelers.  I’d love to check it out, but also don’t give a crap to deal with the crowd. I’ve gone almost 40 years so far I can can go longer.

rule 2 is "never paint a bullseye on your boat, no matter how small. Pelicans love a challenge."
I don’t know why a Victoria’s Secret ad displays during my message board visits, but I ain’t complaining.

If that were the case then motorcycles, stereo equipment and hand tools would appear.

Tis fine, though. Would it be inappropriate to call them pop up ads?

Yes, because we know it wasn’t the ads doing the popping… Ninja

Technically, I believe they would be called push-ups.
I get the VS ones as well. That and Saks 5th Ave. but they have some ads that look nice too.
