That is THE Saniflush.

Snowing like hell here now. just called off 2nd shift. Waiting to see what Spirit Airlines does.

You might want to stock up on bourbon (*edit: and cigars) for the weekend...eggs, milk, bread, and bottled water have already sold out in Cobb County.

I have a decision to make myself. I just let one of my guys go home, because his wife's place of business closed down for the day at 12:00. The other guy I have working for me is an old codger who wouldn't leave unless the building was on fire.

Do I:
a) Leave and tell him he's on his own if he wants to stay.
b) Set the building on fire.

The correct answer on this one is C) Both.

Negative ghost rider. You assumed Delta because I used them as an example.

Already got plenty of bourbon, beer, and frozen pizza. That's about the same as bread, milk, and batteries right?

frozen pizza is useless if the electricity teh blows...gas lines freeze and no matches. enjoy the beer and bourbon.

I still think you have a 40% chance, only because of where you are flying too. Looking at your flight it looks like it isn't coming from anywhere else.

Saniflush · « **Reply #28 on:** February 12, 2010, 02:12:33 PM »

It is ALWAYS coming from somewhere else. Atlanta will just happen to be where the previous flight terminates before the next one starts 90 minutes later. Not over yet.

Godfather · « **Reply #29 on:** February 12, 2010, 02:13:44 PM »

Looking at Delta's site (same trip route) most of theirs are canceled, although two of their flights later tonight are still scheduled.

I am going to adjust my percent to 30.

True although if that were the case I would think it would be canceled by now.

See my prior post Delta has already canceled most of theirs including the one leaving at 7:55pm

I would look at the weather front and then readjust your % guess to about 5.

Airtran is half a heartbeat away from "landing in the Everglades" again. Now that is a flying shitbox of an airlines.

I'm thinking now might be the time to go...or run naked through the halls. There is nobody left in this dump.

I would go make xerox copies of your penis. In your case make sure you utilize the enlarge feature on the copier.

Alright. Not canceled yet. I am leaving for the airport right now. Will holla and let you know what is going on.

Still snowing like a sumbitch in Warrior and the temperature will be dropping down into high 20s/low 30s (27/31 degrees) by 6:00pm.
