Nope. Tickets are prepurchased. If you skip one leg, it nullifies all the rest of the flights, including the return flight.

Did you do the travel flights with Vikings? I had to change mine with them since they had me booked on a stupid multi-stop flight out of Mpls while travel companion (sister and hubby) were flying directly out of Chicago. I ended up driving to Iowa and driving with them to Chicago. Was annoyed Viking charged me more for the direct flight with them. Once you are on the boat Viking is great, not so much till than for me, including the somewhat blotched meeting at airport in Switzerland.

I will never travel with Viking again. They have forked us over twice now. I'm not giving them a third shot. We've had really good luck with Oceania; we quit taking the larger ships but our favorite for them was Royal Caribbean.

Milo just went running past me in the stairwell landing...shoestring in his mouth, tennis shoe bouncing behind him scaring the crap out of him!

I do so love my Dork! :D

I'm trying not to say anything in the tickets thread. It's not easy. Yes, some of us struggle with new technology. But when people assume you're stupid, and/or tell you to quit using your phone if you can't figure it out, it's really really hard to ask how to do something because half of the people on that thread will mock you.
I don't like this new idea; it seems like it will be an issue with the rotating codes for many of us. Guess we'll find out at the UNI game. Think I'll enter the stadium early, though, just in case.
 
Found a recipe for the cake. A couple special ingredients it calls for are Kirschwasser and sour morello cherries. The Kirschwasser is cherry brandy, found that at Woodman's, lady at the register tried to pronounce it and couldn't, then asked me how to so I said it the proper German way and she was kind of shocked that was how it's pronounced and she asked me to say it again.

The sour cherries are extremely hard to find. ALDI carries them, but they're seasonal and they didn't have them in yet. So I ordered a couple jars from a German food importer. If I can't make the cake yet, at least I can have a drink.
 
I see the Iowa women's team is hosting a game at Kinnick in October. I hope it rains that day.
Good way to have injuries. Better be a raised floor with fans blowing underneath or condensation will occur on the court as temps lower. Saw it happen with wrestling mats doing the same thing. Coached a couple kids and all I could tell them was be careful to not slip and get hurt.
 
Worse yet, Lee bet against ISU in a game he played.
Does anyone know the size of this bet?

Not sure I'd be as fired up if I knew it was a $5-$10 "emotional hedge" bet. Still dumb and deserving of whatever consequences he is facing. I just don't think we need to tar and feather the guy if the context changed.
