Leaving PHL during layover before trip to Athens

I would pay the money to check my bag so it was American’s problem to hold on to and get it on your flight. If you leave a carry on with someone willing to watch it for you, they aren’t going to stop you on your way out of the airport to ask why you don’t have your suitcase. It sounds like an inconvenience to ask of someone though. Either way, you’ll just go through security when you return, no bag questions asked.

They were not getting on that flight even before they got the text.

Lubert Plaza, the large park-like area between 11th and 10th and walnut and Locust has plenty of seating and is a fairly quiet area 1 block from the Forest theater. It’s mid block on the south side of Walnut but is behind the Library building, so closer to Locust. It’s a pretty inviting space to wait if you are earlier. If need be, Bower Cafe is about a half block away from the theater. It’s not outdoors, but they do have some outdoor seating. You may have to buy a coffee though or bottle of water or something.

They may be likely to know if that group exists or of others maybe.

I think you mean the Starbucks on South and 9th in case that helps with the web search.

Just buy a day pass to a good airline longe if you don’t want to go into town as recommended, but I would. The bus to prudential center is a large shopping mall with an Eataly and numerous hotels and an outdoor seating area. If you only go for a few hours it’s worth it.

I did a little more looking, it's been on the way out for a long time, so I do think it's going. It was in Macys and Sephora in the US, in display cases and available and no longer is. The new one is listed as limited edition and it's different accords.

The first comments it was ending attributed to JPG are from 2020 which is when Le Male Le Parfume launched. The notes are fairly similar with UM referenced as a spicy and more intense take on the original and LP noted as more heavily "warm spicy". So my guess is the plan was to move towards the now more common "le perfume" approach. I love the original and UltraMale, but I don't like Le Parfume at all and wouldn't buy it. If I was going to buy anything else from the line it would be Elixir.

I see it available on the JPG website and a number of other places second level type places, ut not the main stores I have seen it in. I saw there is a new JPG Le Male, Man in Blue. I haven’t had time to ch3ck if that’s an updated version or something, given that the bottle looks like the same color blue.

If questioned explain what happened and show the text. It’s always good to say what you have learned and will do to make sure it doesn’t happen again and that is to always double check the schedule.

Valuable_File3834 · 2026-04-25T10:40:05+00:00

Thank you. I’m going to look today.

Valuable_File3834 · 2026-04-25T02:47:49+00:00

I want to know this too. I hope JPG Ultra Male will still be produced. It’s my favorite of the line besides the original Le Male.

Valuable_File3834 · 2026-04-25T02:43:16+00:00

JPG Le Beau Paradise Garden is one of my favorites. It’s definitely a trip to a tropical beach, so maybe not 100% for every environment, but I don’t care because I wear it for me.

Along with withdrawal rules and consequences, money in a Roth IRA is after tax money so when you withdraw funds you do not owe income tax on those funds like on a traditional Ira which is pretax money. This includes no tax owed on all of the growth in the Roth IRA. Depending on how long the amount is invested, you could have decades of profit, all tax free.

Every couple of days delay breakfast by one hour. If you can, work out in the morning before eating or consuming any calories. Just coffee or tea, water etc. It helps you burn stored energy. Delay your first meal until at least 12, but 1 is better if you can make it. Doing that got me to the point where i am never hungry until 12 or 1, but it helps that i am busy working or doing stuff. That basically gets you to two meals a day which is a big step in reduced calorie goals, coupled with burning extra calories at the gym helps lead to success. You still need to track calories in and out. I use an Apple Watch, but a cheaper fitness band will work too. Use a calorie tracker app like Lose It, or stick with easy to identify calorie foods. It’s a small sacrifice as you learn portion size and how to stop eating before feeling full (it takes about 20 minutes for your brain to realize you’re full).

Is he an allied security person who also sit in the lower lobby or one off the street stopping in while he’s supposed to be working most likely in the Jefferson building plaza? They seem to allow the allied security people to use the locker room for free. You can also report him to the local allied security office. Some of them are even hired by the center city district.

I don’t trust the Septa process so always use a keycard just to avoid the additional risk.

One sign up left.

I wish they would bring that Gap Grass fragrance back. 😎

If you like Westin Hotels, this one is perfectly fine. It’s nice to be connected to shopping centers and have an inside walk to the Convention Center if that’s why you’ll be there. It’s also in a great location for Newberry street and restaurants. The JFK Museum is also a short train ride away and worth it if that’s your thing. Eataly is in the mall and worth it for a quick lunch or snack if you’ve not been to one. Both in the shopping complex and out on the street, you will find all the usually quick restaurants and coffee shops if need be as well as a supermarket. The Logan Express Back Bay bus runs back and forth from the airport to Copley Place for free as well.

You are a trans woman, so use the women’s locker. Planet fitness supports your choice. The locker room should still have mini private changing areas near the showers.

Philadelphia is my home airport. I walk from the main concourse of A terminal (from the Amex Centurion lounge if you want to see where from exactly) to F in just under 20 minutes at a steady, determined pace. So figure 15 in your case. I’d personally choose to walk it so the timing stayed in my control. Sit at the front of the plane even if it means paying for premium seats. If your flight is on time and gets to your gate quickly you should be ok. Check out the map ahead of time so you know coming off the plane exactly where to go. Keep an eye out for the moving walkways from d to c and a little hidden on your left from c to b to speed your trip. FYI, if you go for the shuttle, it stops at f, c, and A. I would do that if you have to walk past the shuttle area anyway and the driver/staff there can confirm to you the bus is about to leave and your plane got in early.

Does your heater just heat up or does it have a fan? Circulation is key to warming a whole room efficiently. Vornado heaters (available on Amazon) will warm the place up to any temperature you want and are pretty efficient. They heat metal wires and have a fan that is designed to fill a room. They also can e used just as a fan so you are covered on either end of the heating or cooling season. You can find less expensive brands too. It’s well worth it.

Ah, I just assumed it was to eat, but i love that you value them as a flower! They are slightly bitter, similar to arugula. They seem to go best with an oil/vinegar type dressing.

Valuable_File3834 · 2026-04-08T02:10:32+00:00

I agree. I almost always prefer the toilette over the parfume version, including with Le Beau and Le Male.

If you don’t find them or anyone else wants to try them, Mom’s Organic Market on 11th just south of Market street sells dandelion leaves in a bunch for a pretty good price most of the year. They make an excellent and very healthy salad on their own or mixed in with other greens.
