Now Boarding Group A

So yea, Southwest Airlines has now moved away from the old plastic numbered boarding system they had to lettered groups (can you tell it has been a while since I last flew on SWA?). So while I was waiting for my return flight to start boarding these rather large women decided they HAD to be FIRST getting their fat asses on the plane. So there they stood for a solid thirty minutes at the mouth of the boarding area, with the rest of the cattle behind them. This type of thing is one reason I have not flown SWA for sometime, the free for all chaos that exists while jockeying for position to get a desirable seat on the plane.

Oh, but I feel the need to mention that the flight was only about 2/3 full, so everyone either got a isle or window seat.

So on my trip I went to a little 4th of July celebration that was attended by a VW racing club. I don't think I have ever seen a road filled to capacity with VWs and Audis on both sides of the street - most had no visible mods done, but all had engine work done. GTIs were the favorite, jettas, one passat, and a couple of S4s (how can they afford S4s!?) Good time though - some of the fireworks got a little outta hand though.

Oh, this is for the ZigCapt who didn't believe that this was me - here's to you slick!
