brouschwow, gotta love allegiant airlines http://dl.dropbox.com/u/101667/grr-orl-allegiant.png15:02
shakes808brousch: why the is there such a gap in price? There aren't any holidays in that month that would warrant the price increase. Though International Friendship Day is the weekend before, and we AAAALLL know how much air travel we do for our friends lol ;)15:05
brouschi was pointing more at the ~$100 to fly to orlando15:05
Milyardoshakes808: prices look like a stea  either way15:06
Milyardo*steal15:06
shakes808Yeah, over $100 to go down and under $100 to come back15:06
brouschregular airlines want $250 - $50015:06
shakes808Gotchya, I don't fly much, never have the money to go farther than a county over at best15:07
brouschdriving would be over $100 in gas15:07
brouschand would take 2 days15:07
shakes808Nah, It is 24hrs to go from MI to FL15:08
shakes808If my grandfather can do it, then you can lol15:08
shakes808;)15:08
MilyardoYeah Yeah DTW->LAX was like $800 for me last month15:08
brouschi'm more concerned about my 4 year old in a car for 24 hours15:08
shakes808lol I can't remember how old I was when we went down there, but I was young. Around that age / a few years older but not much. It is called sleep lol15:09
jrwrenits called supply and demand15:10
jrwren24hrs is a bit much15:10
shakes808What "supply and demand" does a 4 y/o have / need? lol15:10
jrwrenmy 4yo did very well at 12hrs drive to VA last summer15:10
shakes808Portable DVD players now-a-days are wonders for when they are awake lol15:11
jrwrenits called supply and demand, hte price difference in airline tickets from different airlines and at different times.15:11
jrwrenfuk that.15:11
jrwrenno in car entertainment for my kid.15:11
jrwrenshe can look out the window15:11
jrwrenor listen to the radio with us.15:11
jrwreni feel bad for hte kids and parents who demand/provide constant entertainment15:12
jrwrenjust wait until they get older and you have to put up with their ridiculous expectations that you taught them!15:12
brouschyour 4 year old stared out the window for 12 hours?15:12
brouschnot even books?15:13
jrwrenshe probably had books.15:13
jrwrenbut we talked, listen to the radio.15:13

jrwrenfuk no15:13
jrwrenmaybe podcasts15:14
brouschwe have gone to detroit a couple of times. after 1.5 hours in the car he starts to complain15:14
shakes808Oh Mr. Limbaugh, would rather listen to Shawn Hannity; Rush irritates me sometimes and I don't know why15:14
jrwrenwhip that boy into shape!15:15
shakes808Books would be a good idea if they don't get car sick15:15
jrwrenare you a dad or a child's slave?15:15
jrwrenHannity? seriously?15:15
jrwrendo you enjoy listening to insane idiots?15:15
brouschi didn't say i stop. i said he starts to complain15:15
shakes808When I had to endure long car rides, we would play little games with signs and license plates, but that gets old and how many times can you play it lol and get stuck on Q lol or U or Z15:16
brouschshakes808: we used to do that too15:16
brouschseems so tedious now15:16
shakes808jrwren: They are all idiots, it is just amusing to hear what they have to say15:16
brouschs/amusing/enraging/15:17

shakes808A page filled with crap and you have a list of items you have to find15:26

shakes808anyone else want to chime in? devinheitmueller?17:24
* devinheitmueller googles17:25
* devinheitmueller answers four17:25
devinheitmuellerhttp://www.theskydeck.com/for-kids/fun-facts17:25
shakes808cheater17:26
shakes808;)17:26
devinheitmuellerAnd today.... visibility is ten miles.17:26
devinheitmuellerhttp://www.climaton.com/forecast/IL/Sears-Tower.php17:26
devinheitmuellerYeah, Google takes the fun out of such questions nowadays...17:27
shakes808lol it wouldn't take the fun out of it, if you didn't already search and tell lol17:28
shakes808... even though others might be doing the same lol17:28
devinheitmuellerI could have just said "four" and sounded smart for knowing the right answer.17:28
devinheitmuellerA better question is:  given that today's visibility is ten miles, how many states can you see?17:29
shakes808lol17:29
devinheitmuellerWhich would require some Cartesian math!17:29
brouschno, just a goole map17:29
devinheitmuellerYeah, or that.  ;-)17:30
shakes808You would maybe see Indiana but not Wisconsin, so 217:30
shakes808lol17:30
brouschmichigan is closer than wisconsin17:33
brouschunless you require seeing land17:33
shakes808HA HA, didn't think about that.17:34
shakes808but 10 miles would put you just in Indiana I believe17:35
shakes808?? Chat window closed on me17:36
shakes808but 10 miles isn't far enough to reach (land or water) Indiana17:36
shakes808Have a good one all, see you on later.17:54
