  • Swine flu confirmed in Orlando. Teen from Mexico & visited Disney. http://bit.ly/18z2VY We go to Disney in 5 days. Not giving into flu hype. #
  • Got an “employment offer” from some fabrics company that I never contacted for employment. Can you say Scam? I knew you could. #
  • The “job”: I cash checks for them, keep some & wire rest to them. What really happens: I cash checks, wire money, checks bounce, I’m out $$$ #
  • Just saw last Pushing Daisies (that aired here so far). So many loose threads left open. My response to the ep ending: Oh, HELL NO! #
  • Never thought I’d say it, but #PHP is letting me down. Don’t really blame it though. I’m asking it to process over 88MB worth of string data #
  • 5 days until Disney. We’re in the home stretch. #
  • Everyone’s doing the same pun today. I refuse to say “May the Fourth Be With You.” Wait a sec….. #
  • We’re going to get weather-shock when we go to Disney. Forecasted temp for here on Sat: 67 (& that’s the day’s high) Temp in Orlando: 90’s! #
  • Great article on WebMD: Putting Swine Flu in Perspective http://bit.ly/18qU39 #
  • Only 226 people in the US have had confirmed cases of Swine Flu in 10 days. That’s only 23 people/day. Not a huge outbreak. #
  • Also, all those people (save 1 toddler visiting from Mexico) have recovered from Swine Flu. Too many people are panicking needlessly. #
  • RT @HighTechDad Testing powers of social networking. Can someone get this blog post in front of Honda Motors execs? http://bit.ly/1ed8a Thx! #
  • Video conversion is running long. Hoping this works. Need to convert a MOV to AVI or MPG. #
  • Pretty slow day so far. I did most of what I needed to get done last week. This week should mainly be cleanup before I head to Disney World. #
  • Got a handsfree set from my parents. Cellphone doesn’t see it via Bluetooth. What’s the best way to ID & find out if my phone supports it? #
  • Looks like the handsfree set is a Motorola HS850. #
  • Got the bluetooth headset set up. Will need to see if my wife likes it. She’s been headset-less since her last wired one broke. #
  • Watching http://bit.ly/xaE5G (thanks @BadAstronomer) Lots of ignorance from antivaxxers. Not vaccinating puts your kids & others at risk. #
  • Walter Wagner thinks that something that will either happen or not has a probability of 50-50. So I have a 50-50 shot of winning the lotto! #
  • “All it takes is a dollar and a dream and a complete lack of knowledge of how probability is determined!” #
  • Wow. The end of the day snuck up on me. 4:30 already? Time to go home. #
  • Just saw one of the Dancing With the Stars’ skimpy outfits. Just wondering: At what point will Dancing With the Stars become porn? #
  • 4 days until Disney now. NHL’s getting excited now. Of course, so am I. 😉 #
  • Ok, time for me to wake up. I just tried to do a search in Seesmic Desktop by typing in the “post a tweet” box. lol #
  • Pre-Disney to dos: Backup laptops & desktop to external HDD. Move HDD off-site. Get another http://bit.ly/Axj3P from Radio Shack. #
  • Also need to remember to pull (and delete photos from) the 2GB SD card in our digital photo frame. That’s 2GB more photos to take at Disney. #
  • Count Till Ten Tuesday http://www.techydad.com/?p=546 <= Includes a video of JSL counting to 10. Very cute! #
  • My wife’s computer blue-screened. She tried to reboot and more blue screen. Looks like I’ll be debugging that tonight. #
  • Wife’s computer not good. All attempts at booting give blue screen. Found my BartPE Boot CD & am running chkdsk now. #
  • My laptop froze up while sitting next to my wife’s. She joked “it’s the Swine virus.” The Swine flu has jumped from humans to computers!! #
  • 3 out of the 5 chkdsk steps complete. Fourth step is at 94% and going slowly. Hope I won’t need to let this run overnight. #
  • My wife just realized that she’s wearing Barney colors! (Purple shirt/green shorts) Clearly lack of Internet access is affecting her sanity. #
  • She just told me to note that those were workout clothes, not going-out-in-public clothes. #
  • Chkdsk completed & fixed a whole bunch of problems. Running it one more time just to be sure & then I’ll try booting my wife’s laptop again. #
  • Really getting tired. Going to step away from the computer for a few secs. A watched pot never boils & a watched chkdsk never reaches 100%. #
  • So tired…. chkdsk is at 95% (step 4 of 5)… c’mon computer, check that disk quicker. #
  • Fell asleep last night before chkdsk finished. Wife’s computer is booting now. So far, so good. Looks like it’s all fixed. #
  • Wife’s computer boots fine now but no start menu (it’s resized on the bot of the screen & I can’t re-resize it) & can’t drag/drop anything. #
  • Got my wife’s laptop beside me here. Boots up now, but can’t drag/drop or copy/paste. Task bar is resized small (can’t drag/drop to fix it). #
  • Running a System File Checker on it. Thinking that the Big Crash might have messed up some system files. #
  • If this doesn’t work, might have to reinstall XP. #
  • System File Checker didn’t fix the problem. Multitasking now. Working on the XP Reinstall now while doing work-work and eating breakfast. #
  • XP reinstall’s a bust. It blue screened on the CD boot. Safe Mode restore is a bust also. Not sure what to do next. Running out of options. #
  • There’s always the Dell Restore Partition, but I want to avoid that if at all possible. #
  • 1st American Swine Flu death. But the woman lived close to Mexico, was severly overweight, just gave birth, & recently had pneumonia. #
  • IOW, she had health complications that would make pretty much any flu life threatening. http://bit.ly/172Ilo #
  • Running memtest on my wife’s laptop now. Hoping it isn’t a hardware issue. #
  • My inbox to-do items are down to 2. Of course, that doesn’t count stuff that needs to wait until we come back from Disney World. #
  • Memtest turned up no errors. Looks like OS is corrupt. Only option left is the Dell Recovery Partition. This’ll mean data loss though. #
  • 3 Days to go until we leave for Disney World. #
  • With my wife’s computer woes (& Disney packing/planning), I didn’t finish my Twitter App like I thought I would. #
  • Guess it’ll have to wait till I get back. #
  • Remembered to backup my wife’s bookmarks jsut before I started Dell System Restore. Now I’m restoring her laptop. Hope this does the trick. #
  • If not, we might need to shop for a new laptop. Don’t know if we can afford it though. #
  • That went quickly. Only took 3 minutes to complete. Time to boot into Windows now. *crosses fingers* #
  • Windows booting went fine. Installed all Windows Updates, Service Packs, and FireFox. Rest of the setup and data restore to be done tonight. #
  • Just 2 days to go until Disney World! In less than 48 hours, my kids (and my wife, in-laws and me) will be partying with Mickey. 🙂 #
  • Thinking of making a lunchtime run to Radio Shack. #
  • 45 more hours until we leave for Disney World. Not that I’m counting or anything. 😉 #
  • Radio Shack clerk: Need help? Me: Looking for memory card case. Him: Don’t think we have it. Me: It showed In Stock on website & there it is #
  • Signed up for Disney Photo Pass for the $99 CD. It let me register, but I don’t see where I can lock in the $99 price. What gives? #
  • Just pre-ordered our #Disney PhotoPass PhotoCD. Very cool that Express Shipping is included in the (discounted) price! #
  • Laptops backed up. Desktop computer backing up. Letting it run overnight. Hopefully it’ll be done by morn so I can move the backups offsite. #
  • 1 day to go until Disney World! Tomorrow at this time we’ll be in the air. Woo Hoo!!!! #
  • My desktop computer backup took too long last night. Still wasn’t done by the morning so I couldn’t take the HD into work. Had to let it run #
  • Will explore different offsite options. Hopefully it is done when I get home. #
  • Had considered texting from Disney World. Pro: I’d be able to tweet. Con: Couldn’t see replies. Oh yeah, & it’d cost me $0.25 per tweet. #
  • To do list down to 9 items. Inbox down to 2 items. Shooting for 5 items total by end of day. #
  • RT @TheAngelForever: Magical vacation memories –> http://www.theangelforever.com/?p=1212 Includes photos with our Mouse Ears on. #
  • Wow. It’s only 10:45. Day is dragging on. 22 hours until we leave for Disney World. #
  • Friend’s relative in congestive heart failure & possible organ failure. Not good. & he’s only 30! Definitely makes me value my health more. #
  • Yuck. Apparently NHL was in class working on a project with Epson Salt and decided to taste it. #
  • On the way to school today NHL said boys are tough & girls aren’t. I told him that lots of girls are tough. He said no, only boys are… #
  • … So I told him that his mommy is tough. She’s done lots of tough things in her life. When he asked what, I answered “giving birth.” #
  • Told him (in 5 yr old terms) that childbirth can be tough & mommy did it really well because she’s tough. Don’t think I’d be able to. #
  • Bought new razor heads last night. Installed them today. They don’t work. Just spent $33 on nothing & might not have a razor for Disney. #
  • Feeling awful now. Because I made a bad search for replacement parts, we bought the wrong heads for my razor. Wasted $33+. ARGH! #
  • Luckily, @TheAngelForever was able to fish my old ones out of the trash and put them back in. They seem to be working. #
  • Just pre-ordered EA SPORTS Active. Can’t wait to try it out. #
  • 19 more hours until we leave for Disney. (Who’s counting? 😉 ) #
  • Finishing up work stuff before I head out for our weeklong Disney World vacation. Almost everything is done now! 🙂 #
  • Inbox all cleaned out. I love the smell of a clean inbox! 🙂 #

  • Shoulder & neck are killing me. Half from sleeping funny, half from stress. #
  • Today should be a productive day. Mainly because I’ll either focus on work to the exclusion of all else or hide under my desk from the world #
  • Neck/back are really killing me. Time to try to find some advil. I know I have some somewhere. #

  • I’m following @ScanMyPhotos to win another Kodak Zi6 HD Digital Camera – http://bit.ly/RkcD2. #
  • Hulu.com blocked at work & curious about something. Can someone check & see what kids’ shows are on Hulu? Any Noggin/Sprout stuff? #
  • Any #DirecTV users out there? Is the protection plan worth the $5.99/month? Or is it a waste of money? #
  • Oh #Mythbusters, why can’t you put full episodes online? I can’t drop Cable TV unless I can get me some Mythbustin’ action! #
  • I hate it when I get weird debugging calls just before I’m about to leave. #
  • I’m loving the Heroes Season Finale. #
  • Love the #Heroes seasion finale ending! So cool! Yet, I hate the Heroes season finale ending. So long to go until new episodes! #
  • Working on my Twitter app. Think I have something good going now. #
  • Nothing like starting your day by almost being sideswiped. Some people just don’t look to the side before they swerve between lanes. #
  • Turns out that #Mythbusters is available online – From Amazon’s Video on Demand for $1.99 an ep. Not free like others, but still available. #
  • Whole season of Mythbusters via Amazon VoD costs ~$50. (Cable TV is $66/mo.) Could prob make a set top box that supports Hulu & Amazon VoD. #
  • RT @grantimahara: Last night there were people in a caged-off area in the back of the bar knitting. Was it for our protection?? #
  • Really surprised that no one complained when our intranet’s WebMD feed showed the story titled “Penis Spray for Premature Ejaculation” 😉 #
  • Was looking for a good book to read during “wind down” times at Disney World. Think might be it. http://bit.ly/yL0S0 (by @BadAstronomer) #
  • RT @HisBoysCanSwim: Would you put your baby in this? Looks like a cage to me: http://tinyurl.com/dnmtzz #
  • Closing down now to head for home. Pretty productive day. Only 8 more work days until Disney World! #
  • RT @mike_elgan Voters in Indian state of Maharashtra get indelible ink on middle finger Chief minister & wife flip proof http://bit.ly/hiHJL #
  • 10 days until our Disney World trip. Finger countdown time! 😀 #
  • Wondering how many other Twitterfolk will be at #DisneyWorld when we’re there. Twitter search shows @runningmama & @JessEdgar99. Any others? #
  • RT @mike_elgan The opposite of TinyURL: DickensURL.com converts long URLs into longer quotes from Charles Dickens! http://dickensurl.com/ #
  • RE DickensURL: My Dickens quote is: “There is a wisdom of the Head, and … there is a wisdom of the Heart.” From Hard Times #
  • http://tinyurl.com/dg659a. #
  • LOL. Seesmic Desktop changed my DickensURL into a TinyURL link. The link goes to TinyURL which goes to DickensURL which goes to my website. #
  • hmmm…. Wubbzy Clean Room door hangers http://bit.ly/so4Mo What if my kids hang this on my room though. 😉 #
  • RT @grantimahara: Want to see what kind of mayhem a one-ton ball of solid Lego does? Watch NEW #Mythbusters episode tonite 9pm on Discovery. #
  • Interesting. Apparently, you can use TVersity to stream videos from your PC to your Nintendo Wii over your wireless network. #
  • Why does my laptop always insist on freezing up when I’m feeling productive? It’s a conspiracy! #
  • Scale this morning indicated that I’ve finally shed my Passover weight gain. 3 pounds away from my Disney World weight loss goal of 185. #
  • Time to go home. No clue what I’m making for dinner though. #
  • RT @Shortpacked “i cant imagine how insulted jesus & moses would feel if they were called jewish” http://bit.ly/tWrWH <= Religion FAIL! #
  • 9 Days until Disney World! #
  • Looks like @SARAG517 & @kristsu will be at Disney when we are. As I walk through Disney, I’ll be wondering who’s tweeting their trip. 😉 #
  • RT @FitAndBusyDad: NEW Blog Post – Do Cheat Meals Really Work? http://bit.ly/pthFQ #
  • Back still hurting. This is the 3rd day. I can turn my head now but w/ shooting pain. Hope its better by the time we go to Disney World. #
  • It’s only 12 noon, but I already want to eat my lunch. That probably doesn’t bode well for my snacking over the rest of the day. #
  • All switched over from Sectorlink to Arvixe. On phone to cancel Sectorlink now. #
  • Sectorlink won’t prorate my hosting fee (5 days into the 1 month renewal). Sent an e-mail to their billing dept to see if they can do it. #
  • Sectorlink won’t promise to prorate my account. But if I make a note in my cancellation, they might possibly decide to. *grrr* #
  • *grrr* Not liking how Sectorlink is handling this. They absolutely refuse to do any prorating at all. #
  • Gets better. Sectorlink’s TOS seems to say that if they cancel my acct, they’d prorate the fees. #
  • So if I host warez & get disconnected, Sectorlink will prorate. If I just cancel the account, no prorating. Great policy there! #
  • Cool! Sectorlink made good and issued me a full refund for my month of hosting when they cancelled my account. #
  • RT @mike_elgan: Swine flu, it turns out, isn’t as bad as regular flu. http://bit.ly/10opwC <=The hype is more infectious than the flu itself #
  • RT @mike_elgan: This is madness, I tell you: http://visibletweets.com/ (RT @steverubel) <= Quite a cool way to view tweets. #
  • 1hr 15 minutes to go. Motivation is plummeting, though. #
  • 45 seconds to generate a report, 42 seconds to display it. Think I need to work on cutting down the display time. #
  • Trying to shut down, but computer’s not letting me. Freezing up. C’mon already!!!!! #
  • Can you believe what this mother feeds her babies?!!! http://bit.ly/1aQOHu #
  • She’s too busy for housework or making meals, but they “only get dressed & go out 1x a week to collect her benefits.” What’s she busy doing? #
  • 8 more days until we go to Disney World! #
  • Have 9GB in memory cards for our upcoming Disney trip. Wonder if that’s enough. That’s only 1.2 GB of photos per day. 😉 #
  • Each photo tends to be around 2.2MB, so that means I’ll need to limit myself to around 550 photos per day. Don’t know if I can do that. 😉 #
  • My wife (@TheAngelForever) just found her old camera w/ a 1GB memory card in it. That gives us 10GB to play with. “Only” 630 photos per day. #
  • All totaled, we’ll be able to take 4,450 photos during our 7 days at Disney World. (Plus Photo Pass photos & photos taken by my in-laws.) #
  • Anyone know of a good, free Hangman game for the computer? NHL loves playing hangman & I’d love to let him play it while on the computer. #
  • Suddenly tired. Is it nap time yet? #
  • No wonder computer was running slow, it was running out of disk space. Cleaned it up some. #
  • Have to reboot because of a previously installed Windows Update. Perhaps a short nap while my computer reboots. #
  • Yay! The weekend is here. Time to go home and plan for our Disney World trip. Only a week more to go! #
  • PHP, why must you torment me? When I think I’ve fixed the last bug, another one rears its ugly head. #
  • Bug tracked down. Unfortunately, it looks like the problem is that str_replace in #PHP is taking up too much memory. #
  • I’m trying to replace an array of values with “” (empty string) in a string of length 87,654,081. Is that too much to ask of #PHP? 😉 #
  • Note visitors of my across-the-street neighbors: When you stop by at 1am, DON’T HONK YOUR HORN!!! Get out of the car & go to the door! #
  • Time for bed. If anyone has any #PHP suggestions, tweet me. I’ll check my @replies when I sign on tomorrow (or is it today now?) #
  • Thinking of buying “Einstein: His Life and Universe” or “In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto” for downtime reading on our Disney trip. #
  • Coding my PHP app while JSL sleeps on the floor & @TheAngelForever picks up NHL. Wishing I was sleeping too. Don’t feel well. #
  • Lack of sleep + Allergies = Feeling blech. #

  • in Long Island for my Grandmother’s funeral (tomorrow). Missing my wife and kids already. #
  • Thinking of sneaking into the kitchen and sneaking some of my mom’s sponge cake. #
  • My Twitter app will have 5 different size settings. The smallest will be “Twitter Bird”, the biggest: “Whale”. What to name the other 3? #
  • Also, any place to get good (free or low cost) Twitter icons to use? (Twitter Bird, Whale similar to Fail Whale but not exactly) #
  • Maybe 2nd smallest could be Twitter Duck? http://tinyurl.com/6m3ums #
  • 2nd Biggest: Twitter Elephant? Middle one: Twitter Lion? (In honor of NHL’s favorite animal) #
  • Where to get Bird/Duck/Lion/Elephant/Whale/whatever icons though? Any artists out there willing to do it for website credit/links? #
  • Ok, time for bed now. Busy day tomorrow. Goodnight all! #
  • Just remembered what I forgot to pack. A dress belt to go with my suit! I had it w/ my suit but during various shuffles, it got left behind. #
  • Luckily, my normal belt is black & looks somewhat decent. #
  • Actually, the front of the belt is pretty worn, but it’ll have to do. These things happen when you pack in a hurry. #
  • Headed offline now to head to the funeral home. #
  • Funeral went off as well as can be expected. It was windy and cold, but at least the rain held off until we left the cemetery. #
  • Spoke to my relatives for so long that my throat is sore. #
  • 1 relative was very tacky. She walked around my parents’ house & pointed out things she wanted which she assumed belonged to my grandmother. #
  • Many items were really my parents’, not my grandma’s. Still, who is she to just walk in & try to claim things right after we buried grandma? #
  • Up early. All packed to go home. Off to temple w/ my dad at 6am, back to my parents’ house for breakfast, & then off to catch my train home. #
  • Hope JSL is feeling better. 103 last night scared me & made me feel bad for “deserting” him & my wife to go to my grandmother’s funeral. 🙁 #
  • Heading off to the train in a few minutes. #
  • Wish there was a way for DMs only from certain people (namely @TheAngelForever) to be sent to me as text messages. #
  • Just set my prefs so that DMs get sent to me as txt messages. Will turn it off when my train ride is done. #
  • Set the “sleep time” to 4pm – after I get back – to midnight to give me time to reset it. #
  • I pay for txt messages, but this will give @TheAngelForever another way to reach me if she needs to & I’m in a low signal area. #
  • Ok, headed off Twitter now to take care of a few last minute things before I head to the train. #
  • Back from my parents’ house. Actually been back since for 6hrs but had no time to tweet. #
  • JSL is sleeping beside me. Feels cool. Here’s hoping that his fever is actually down and not just hiding like it likes to do. #
  • Was loving Seesmic Desktop, but now it won’t come up at all. Tray icon appears, but no windows show up! #
  • Anyone know how to scan artwork? Specifically, paintings that are bigger than a normal scanner. Want to scan my grandfather’s old paintings. #
  • Looks like photographing my grandfather’s paintings is my only option. Just checked the back of 1 & the canvas is stapled to the wood frame. #
  • I wouldn’t be able to detach canvas from frame without risking damage to the painting & I can’t scan with the frame still on. #
  • Two of my grandfathers paintings that I have already photographed: http://twitpic.com/3s7lg http://twitpic.com/3s7lv #
  • My grandfather also painted a clown. Eyes follow you around. Scared me when I was a kid. Thought the clown was going to jump out & get me. #
  • Now I love the painting because it reminds me of my grandpa. @TheAngelForever won’t let me hang it in the house though. I wonder why. 😉 #
  • Gotta catch up with #Heroes. Monday’s ep still unwatched on my DVR. Was at my parents’ house after my grandmother’s funeral & couldn’t watch #
  • RT @grantimahara: http://twitpic.com/3s7lm – Captain Buster and 1st mate #karibyron. <= Wow! Kari’s popped. Wonder when she’s due. #
  • RT @TheAngelForever: This is the clown painting that @TechyDad is talking about. http://www.theangelforever.com/?p=67 #
  • My Twitter personality: popular inquisitive fair My style: garrulous coherent POET http://twanalyst.com/TechyDad #
  • Garrulous = pointlessly or annoyingly talkative. Me? Pointlessly or annoyingly talkative? Never!!! 😉 #
  • Bra deflects bullet aimed at woman. http://bit.ly/NucoP #Mythbusters should replicate this. @donttrythis @grantimahara, What do you think? #
  • Looking at DirecTV as a replacement for TW Cable. I’d still need TWC for Internet/Phone, but could save ~$10/mo if I switched TV to DirecTV. #
  • DirecTV Live Chat sales guy says they can transfer recordings from a failing DVR to a new one. Advantage: DirecTV! TWC can’t do that. #
  • It is very frustrating to lose all of your recorded shows because your DVR box goes funky. #
  • TWC FAIL: Searched KB for extra receiver price. Told to check Pricings or Build-A-Bundle page. Former had info removed, latter is 404. #
  • Found 2 catches in DirecTV’s prices. 1) Prices are for 1 yr. After that the price rises by $21/mo. 2) You pay $5/mo to lease each receiver. #
  • After factoring those in, DTV is cheaper than TWC for the 1st year, but those savings are quickly negated soon after the 2nd year. #
  • Sheesh. Jim Carrey claims aluminum & anti-freeze in vaccines could hurt kids. There’s no anti-freeze in vaccines! As for aluminum… #
  • …There’s also aluminum in breastmilk. A child BFing for 51-346 days gets the same amt of aluminum as from the entire US vaccine schedule. #
  • Carrey also rails against formaldehyde in vaccines. Amt in all vaccines for 6yr old: 1.2mg. Amt in 1 banana: 16.3mg. SAVE KIDS! BAN BANANAS! #
  • Best comment I’ve seen RE: Jim’s statements: “1 should not take medical advice from Ace Ventura and a Playboy bunny.” http://bit.ly/NGkGx #
  • Only 15 more days until we leave for Disney World! #
  • Just realized that w/ everything that’s been happening, I forgot to move my last sites off Sectorlink. Gotta try to take care of that today. #
  • Meeting time with marketing. #
  • Is it bad that I want to eat my lunch now? #
  • Looking over lists of things to bring to Disney World. http://bit.ly/ekhaE http://bit.ly/qJzSf and http://allears.net/pl/forgot.htm #

  • Tried Quinoa, raisins, cinnamon, honey, & milk for Passover breakfast this morning. Quite tasty. Pics & blog post coming soon. #
  • The new Seesmic Desktop client is nice, but I’m missing the ability to see what messages weren’t read. #
  • Also there doesn’t seem to be a window to see your favorites. I often use that to check on links at home if they’re blocked at work/NSFW. #

  • Twitter worm creator “is hoping that it will result in employment from a security firm rather than prosecution.” http://is.gd/sc5q #
  • My view: I would hope security firms don’t hire someone who would make a worm due to “boredom.” You don’t want someone like that on staff. #
  • Today was really productive. Took my To Do List from 58 items down to 25. Even built an entire web app. Time to celebrate w/ … matzoh?!! #

  • Been off Twitter for a bit. Day was not good. JSL has a high temp that won’t go down & my grandmother passed away today. 🙁 #
  • Long night. Had to wake up every 2 hours to give JSL his medicine. #
  • Not sure how/if I’m going to my grandmother’s funeral. Don’t want to miss it, but how can I leave B/JSL if JSL’s temp won’t drop below 101? #
  • Would you travel to your grandmother’s funeral if you would be leaving your spouse & sick child for 2 days? Not sure what to do. 🙁 #
  • Checking on bereavement fares now. USAir doesn’t have “bereavement fares per se.” Cost for flight would be over $550! Checking Southwest now #
