  • 02:02:58: @Dark_Puck Many airplanes do; you just need a DC adapter for your computer. They aren’t expensive.
  • 12:53:52: Fun petrochemical term: “fracking.” Petition asserts, “A handful of fracking carpetbaggers shouldn’t hold NY’s environment hostage.” Heh.

  • 02:05:35: MERRY CHRISTMAS, CENTRAL TIME ZONE!
  • 02:36:54: It’s amazing how a little ice paralyzes this city. Saw 7 crashed/abandoned cars on way to airport. DFW is a mess.
