As far as presidents go, if things are going okay
to begin with, perhaps true. Now if the big O
doesn't get cracking, in this time of crisis, I'd
say doing anything at all would be better than
doing nothing at all.

I rather like Fenway. Food stinks, though.

Gotcha. Sale fares are over anyhow (though they may
come back, and I have enough miles to tide me over
in case they don't).
