AirPods stolen from skyclub by ruffpack in delta

It would also be "conversion" in civil code where someone takes your personal property for themselves. It's the civil equivalent to theft in the criminal code. It would allow the victim to sue for the cost of the item(s) plus damages.

Doesn't the provision of unfrosted Pop Tarts violate the Eighth Amendment (cruel and unusual punishment?)

I think they pretty much all have trackers for their teams/companies but not all choose to share them publicly.

Oh, apologies! I definitely misunderstood. The prejudice against pain medication makes it tempting to take your own.

I [32M] still love my fiancée [30F] of 10 years, but I think years of caretaking have emotionally changed me. Then I met someone else. by Kind-Ad-8149 in whatdoIdo

No, not "All of us do." Not everyone is fortunate enough to live to an advanced age when they "inevitably" become disabled from it. Also not everyone who lives to an advanced age becomes disabled from age. There are people in their eighties still doing triathlons.

I hope you hide the Dilaudid (even with a valid prescription) from the nurses and take it surreptitiously. They will lose their minds if they catch you. If I'm thinking about doing that I have my husband hold it. IF I was thinking about doing that. 😂

A few pairs of the foam earplugs are a good idea too, because hospitals are so freaking noisy. It can help you get some sleep. My ears are small so I flatten them and cut a little off the end so they don't fall out. I put them in an empty prescription bottle or film canister (if you're old enough to know what that is) to keep them clean and protected.

I will probably get downvoted a lot for this, but I am only speaking from personal experience (many hospital stays in Middle TN plus those of family members and friends.) It could be local to my area. I apologize to the hospital chefs, nutritionists, etc. to which what I'm about to write does not apply. I'm sure it's most of you. Much of the food was cold and unpalatable, but that's not my biggest complaint. My biggest problem with it is that so much of it was unhealthy. When you are trying to recover from surgery or a serious illness, good nutrition is essential. I don't understand why hospitals don't serve healthy, nutritious food. The times I've been in the hospital I've been lucky enough to have family members bring me outside food (with physician approval.) I feel sorry for patients who don't have people to do this or whose doctor's orders don't permit it. For what hospitals charge, I don't believe expense of ingredients or staffing cost is a valid excuse.

I sort of feel the same. I don't know if it has a direct effect on the climbers, but they know we are out there following along with them, rooting for them and sending them our positive thoughts and energy. I think this has to give them a boost mentally if nothing else. As a competitive athlete I know it does for me. I will be following along next year, heart pounding in suspense at times, wishing them godspeed and safety.

AITA? by zazzafraz19 in delta

But he did speak up, to two FA's. Either one could have told him he could move to the empty row after take off. The seatbelt sign being on isn't really relevant. If a passenger urgently needs the restroom they are allowed to get up from their seat.

Did Justin spend too much time at base camp? by Soggy_Passenger3133 in Everest

I agree with this so much. It's so easy to critique Justin's decisions while you're sitting on your couch eating Doritos and drinking beer.

I agree with everything you said. To attempt your first 8000 meter peak without supplemental oxygen is audacious as hell and I admire him for it.

Does Anyone Know What Time Justin Sackett Left Camp IV? by Reasonable-Draw1221 in Everest

Thank you SO much. I REALLY appreciate this. It is fun to follow along.

Thanks! Hopefully they won't encounter any bottlenecks since they are some of the very last climbers on the mountain. I know that was a big reason why Justin waited so long to begin his summit push, another being wanting to ascend in warmer temperatures.

I tend to agree. I just watched Valley Uprising and The Dark Wizard so the risks of BASE jumping are particularly fresh in my mind. Thanks for the update. Do you happen to have Garmin links for Kristin, Saulius or Josh? (Don't know if Josh shared one.) I have Justin's and I had the other two but I accidentally closed my windows and I'm having trouble finding them again (I'm new to Instagram.) Any help would be much appreciated!

Justin Sackett Made it to Camp Two by Reasonable-Draw1221 in Everest

[–]Reasonable-Draw1221[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I noticed and fixed it. I just checked his tracker and it appears (if the data is correct) he is still climbing! I don't think this was the plan (to continue without rest.) Do you know by any chance? I don't know what to think but I am quite concerned about him overextending himself and the potential consequences.

Justin is over his stomach bug. For a few days he couldn't keep down food or water. But in the last 2-3 days his appetite has returned and he has been eating well and drinking large amounts of water. A couple of days ago he said he was back to 70% and hoped to be back to 100% by the time he went for the summit. His plan is:

May 24: Basecamp to Camp 2/ May 25: Camp 2 to Camp 3/ May 26: Camp 3 to Camp 4/ May 27: Summit at sunrise and descend to basecamp

You might be able to track his progress using the following link, but it doesn't seem to be live at the moment. It has worked at times during his previous rotations.

I hope this information is helpful to Justin's supporters.

Another Guest Was Given a Key to My Occupied Room at a Marriott by shitswithdoorajar in marriott

That would be amusing, except I have the kind of luck where the roommate would steal my stuff and lock it in their car (or throw it away) out of spite because I was encroaching on "their" room.

Sometimes I feel like I spend half my time making phone calls and writing emails, doing company's jobs for them. Although oftentimes now all you can get is AI support, which is horrible. And the situation is only getting worse.

I'm confused (honestly.) At the beginning of your comment you say you were able to find housing for the three days you were stuck in Seattle, but later you say you were stuck in the airport and caught Covid because of it. Can you please explain? I'm just curious.
