  1. Hour to kill so drinking in the hotel bar. This stuff kinda tastes like regular light American lager, but has almost no carbonation. About $3 a can, which I'm sure is an outrageous markup.

    Nanjing is beautiful, btw. b263969d51193c26bd1606395c91cf65.jpg

  2. Nearest HEB is in Texas City, so, no, no grocery stores. Not that HEB is open.

     

    Edit: should have clicked the link, you're damn near to rollover pass (rip?). Bring groceries. There's a Kroger on the island but the trip on the ferry might take almost as long as driving all the way around the bay.

    Yep, urban legend. Most of the international carriers in this thread have exactly the same pitch as most of the US carriers.  A few have an extra inch or too but only on certain equipment, certainly not across the board. 

    That extra inch isn’t exactly life changing. And I’d know about the desire for extra inches... I’m your mom.

    depends on whether that extra inch is where your shins are or not.  ex: singapore airlines had a footrest that folded down from the back of the seat in front of you.  up, my shins were touching it.  down, it interfered with stretching out my legs under the seat.  probably great for manlets and women, not good for me. 

  4. lately i've been hearing it used to describe 3 outs made by strikeout, regardless of whether there was a walk or a hit in there.  i thought it was a bit weird to use it that way.
