1. Amazon got rid of the Share the Love program.

2. Sometime in the last year or two, Panera Bread got rid of their yummy salmon cream cheese (which, unlike the salmon cream cheese at another chain, actually contained real bits o' salmon in it).

3. Airtran's flights out of Boston yesterday were cancelled, so [livejournal.com profile] shadesong is still away. :-(

4. I had bitchin' insomnia last night. That's not nearly as much fun as bitchin' Camaro.

And, of course, there's the fact that it's Monday morning, I've got lots of work to do, and there's a training session this afternoon that I really don't want to deal with.

In other news, yes, I watched the games yesterday. Not really surprised by either one, but if TO's not healthy in two weeks, I don't expect the Super Bowl to be close.

Yes, I also know that the Mets have pulled out of the Delgado race. That's fine by me. Delgado's a great player, but the Mets have a lot of holes, and they could spend the money a lot more efficiently.

That Season 1 of Scrubs DVD set I mentioned last week? Could the cover art be any worse?

For your daily dose of "elitism," I can only point you to this post linked via [livejournal.com profile] nihilistic_kid. [livejournal.com profile] shadesong et al, did you catch this panel? It's just the sort of thing I'd have loved to be an audience member for.

Bluntest spam subject line of the day: Buy your meds from Canada and save a shitload!

Finally, after all the frivolous petitions over political causes and the like, it's nice to see a serious one about an issue that actually matters. When will our national misery end?

Yeah, spent the last three hours or so across campus teaching. Adrenalin has officially been drained, and the exhaustion has set in.

Came back to find that Take Two has gotten some revenge on EA.

Elsewhere, Johnny Carson's NY Times obit is the best one I've seen to date.

That's all. Too busy and exhausted to even try to catch up on LJ right now.

Allyson Hannigan to guest-star on Veronica Mars!

So watch the gorram show already. Sheesh. It's only the best new show in a season with at least three top-notch new series. And unlike Lost and Desperate Houswives, this one needs viewers.

Grr.

So, I've been tracking Airtran's flight status for [livejournal.com profile] shadesong's flight. It'd been updating pretty regularly, telling me that the flight (originally due in at 5) was arriving around 11.

Well, I just got a call from [livejournal.com profile] shadesong. After spending hours on the runway, the flight was diverted to Philly, and they're about to board another plane which will take them to Atlanta.

Yes, in other words, Airtran's info page, with its constant updates and changes, was just fucking lying the entire time.

And the airline industry wonders why people have no fucking sympathy for their plight.
