Why's that? It's highly over-rated! YOWZA

Sorry I can't be there Segs....but you know the deal. Have fun, everyone!

I made it home fine. (by the skin of my teeth)

I really should have left about 15 minutes earlier. I got to the counter with less than 30 minutes before the 130 flight, so I had to go to the counter get moved to the 320 flight to get checked in. clear security (they need to have a smart person lane) get to the gate for the 130 flight. The gate agent takes my boarding pass for the 320 flight, says there are misconnects and to take seat #50 (it was an ERJ). Made the 250 bus to Portsmouth. And drove from there.

Mark and Matt should have pics.

Ethan, Hope you made out alright on your PC and the turn they called you for. You are a champ man. At least with the turn they positive spaced you out of EWR.

Szluka, Nick and Ethan, great to meet you guys.


I have 2 more things:
1) I had a freaking blast.

2) Swedish chicks are HOT! (the bloody lip was worth it

[Kristie]

the bloody lip was worth it

is that a story only to be told at NJC?

and WHERE are some photos?????? hmmmmmmmm

[BobDDuck]

I made it out to my PC. It turned into a night mare getting there as they added some flying and I ended up getting to the check ride about 30 minutes late. Fortunately the director of training was on the war path for me so I was covered.

I have a few pictures on my camera I will upload when I get home tomorrow night. Matt has probably the funniest pic I took on his camera. Him and Seggy wearing their pilot "attire". Upload that stuff yo!

So, funny moments you missed (in no particular order)...

The aforementioned Swedish Kiss that bloodied Justin's lip. Before I go any farther, Seggy spent most of the weekend saying "see, wasn't I right, Swedish Girls are awesome". He is right... How about this... This two ladies beat Justin and some others in a friendly game of yard soccer and then go around kissing the guys who lost. Heck, I wasn't even playing and got attacked to.

Andrew, Allie (Seggy's better half) and the Swedish Girls mocking "Sven" the Muscle Beach style life guard as he goes Ben Hur on the back of a pickup truck. There MAY be pictures of that, but I think they are international now and may not make it back.

Mark trying to mess up Nick's aim during a beer pong match by mooning him over the cups. Nick sinks the shot. Mark tries it again and Nick sinks the next shot. So... Moral of the story? I dunno.. balls and Mark's backside? We'll leave it at that.

Matt reverting back to FO and wearing the hat again (pictures coming).

There's probably more but I can't think of it. It's been a day from hell for me, but it was well worth it.

It was great to see Mark (Seggy) and Matt (FlyChicaga) again and to meet Andrew(Amorris), Justin (OldTownPilot) and Nick (Nick) and Dave (Airdale).

[OldTownPilot]

I think I fell on my ass more than I kicked the ball during the 'game'.

It was more like a Swedish head butt than a kiss

Airdale was there?

Andrew, Allie (Seggy's better half) and the Swedish Girls mocking "Sven" the Muscle Beach style life guard as he goes Ben Hur on the back of a pickup truck. There MAY be pictures of that, but I think they are international now and may not make it back.

I totally missed that. Sometimes it pays to be the sober one Sometimes it sucks having a sober one that leaks stories

[Nick]

Here is a picture for Seggy to make his desktop wallpaper:

[FlyChicaga]

Wow. Great party. It never ceases to amaze me how cool everyone is that I meet from JC. Thanks to Seggy for inviting me, because it was a blast. Great seeing Mark and Ethan again, and great meeting Justin, Andrew, and Nick. Nick and Justin, I owe you two big for helping me get to and from the party.

It was especially great that the weather was so perfect for it all. The Jersey Shore is definitely a nice area.

Just too many great stories to sit here and try to post them all... I'll keep them in the storybook to be pulled out at the Bellagio in Vegas. Hey Mark, maybe you should bring your Swedish friends to the city of lights.

Let's see if I can post these pictures...

[FlyChicaga]

OK. Pictures.

Seggy and FlyChicaga studying for upgrade...



Seggy telling amorris what he thinks of his story, while Nick watches on...



We love Sweden.



I love Sweden.

It was Beach Bum Beer. I didn't drink any, but it went pretty fast. People were grabbing that over the cans of Natie Lite anyways!

Ok, so my pictures... I have discovered I only have 5 and my camera sucks, but here we go...

Justin and Matt really could be brothers.


Seggy's Apron.


Two Captains (Seggy and Matt) discuss the finer points of grilling.


Justin enjoying the day.

[amorris311]

Is that where you went? I was mostly asleep when you and I think it was Seggy's roommate came back. I saw you grab your bag and walk out the door. I guess I just wasn't awake enough to put 2 and 2 together. Matt had some prime floor space I'm sure he wouldn't have minded sharing.

[amorris311]

szluka was going to sleep there with no blanket. when there was a sleeping bag right next to him. i started laughing. what a night.

[FlyChicaga]

It was dark!

[Nick]

I felt great for having slept in the back of my car. I kind of wanted to eventually sleep in the backseat anyway just to try it because on two transcon road trips I never had the space to do so but wondered if it was suitable.

There was nothing in that room but bare floor to sleep on by the time I got back!

[Seggy]

You should have climbed into bed with amorris or the two Swedish ladies.

[amorris311]

dude there was one when it started. the other just messed things up.

[BobDDuck]

That may be the first time I have ever heard a guy complain about TWO ladies in a bed. Actually, I think at one point you had three. Seggy's old room mate's girlfriend got confused at one point and ended up there I think. I just remember Andrew saying "no.... your bed is over there... go over there." It was pretty funny, but you probably had to be there.

[FlyChicaga]

Ah Ethan the prarie dog. Saw everything.

I could have taken one of the Swedish ladies and brought her to my sleeping bag. But I'm afraid that I stepped over the line and entered "The Friends Zone." DOH!

Or your afraid that you might have had the wrong ocean that goes to Sweden.......

[BobDDuck]

A few more pics... I uh... appropriated these from a facebook account.

Andrew watching me try to find a flight out of EWR the next day that will get me to my PC. Or maybe we were looking at really SCARY p0rn.


Mark uh.... being Mark.


Yeah. Seggy's right... Sweden's cool.
