Surprise Birthday Party @ San Juan Hub
Posted: 02-25-2011 05:49 AM
Don't tell him, but we're gathering today at the San Juan hub for Julio Morales' birthday. Divert all flights to San Juan. If your destination weather is not terrible and an obvious divert situation, you can always use the old "Well, the weather's much finer in San Juan."
Sergio's flying in a couple cases of our finest vintage DFW goat's milk, so "Lift one in San Juan!" Of course if you do that, you'll have to ground yourself for a week according to the warnings placarded to the milk skin. I guess there could be worse places to be grounded, right? Also, Bert will be giving extensive cultural tours of the area's night life, bars, str... joints and other various seedy places in ferreting out whose locations he excels.
Since I've been doing a lot of flying out of San Juan these last few weeks, I've made some good contacts there. The local Salvation Army has agreed to make a birthday cake (for free) but they denied the request to replace "Happy Birthday" with "Happy Bertday". Said something like they had an image to uphold. There will be a kettle outside the AA office as you enter so give generously before and after the goat's milk.
The party starts at 2200z today. Don't be late! Julio has done a great job as HM down here and he deserves a great birthday party. Would be a shame to not wish him a very Happy Birthday!
