How is everyone today? I can tell that life is almost back to normal this week. The holidays, I think, are finally behind us all.

How can I tell? Because I have already received a raft of emails from readers of this week’s PBB.

Last week our email total was good, but it took awhile.

Today, the email bag is busy right off the bat.

I’ve also received a number of interesting non-airline related emails this morning.

Such as?

One reader wants to know if I am going to be in New Orleans this upcoming weekend for Pardi-Gras.

If you are a Parrothead, you know what Pardi-Gras is. It’s an excuse for Parrotheads to get together in New Orleans, drink heavily, and hope that Jimmy Buffett decides to show up.

No, not really. Everyone has a good time whether he shows up or not.

Sounds like a winner to me.

Unfortunately no, I am going to be in the DFW metroplex this weekend. No margaritas for me.

Another reader writes to ask when the official party is going to be — to celebrate the official opening of the PlaneBusiness branch office.

I think you guys have one thing on the brain today.

Good question. It certainly can’t be at the branch office. That would severely curtail the number of potential guests.

I’ll have to work on this. But, as our one subscriber commented this morning, “It would be unairline-like not to have a party.”

How true.
