Grading the YNOT

OK, here's the spreadsheet so far. Those involved, pay attention, because this will change as I grade them. (One of those neat modern-technology things, you know.)



So, for the story behind one and two.....

Meron's mom was scheduled to fly from Columbus to Memphis to Little Rock via Northwest Airlines, to arrive in Little Rock at 3:30 PM yesterday. All well and good, until her plane from Columbus had a dent in the door and they couldn't close it properly. Which meant a canceled flight and some quick rework of her plans by the airline.

They moved her to American Airlines, which flew her through Dallas (of course) and then got her into Little Rock at 8:00 last night. So, needless to say, Meron and I had no problem getting down there to get her.

So, in summary, the plane Meron's mom was on got in on time. The plane Meron's mom was supposed to be on most likely arrived on time. But the two planes were very different machines.

And, on top of that, her luggage got lost as well. We may get it delivered tonight, it may be tomorrow (most likely, when everyone is at the hospital, causing another rigmarole). Nothing vital in there, but of course it's a pretty big inconvenience.

Everything else, though, going well. The appointment went smoothly, everything was filled out and we are supposed to be there at 6 in the morning.

For those in the area that plan to visit (and I'll probably reiterate this on the post with pictures, which is the only one anyone's going to look at), Wednesday may not be the best day, but Thursday would be a wonderful time to visit. Meron got a bit lonely in the hospital last time. She didn't realize people wouldn't knock on the door, so this time she's probably going to leave it open and the curtain pulled. But if it is closed, go ahead and knock--she probably wants the company!

Re Q 10. As mentioned in a PM on CCH, I did not write "No", I wrote "I don't know". No and know, although sounding the same are not the same.

So, in honor of your daughters birth, I am changing my answer to "Yes" - of course the Cardinals will win to welcome her into the world!
