Suck it, Emirates!

If I may be profane for a second.

Thank you.

Finally! After some six months of continuous effort, multiple phone calls, two parcels, and over ten emails I have, finally, received my reimbursement check from Emirates airlines for causing a missed flight and having to pay to reschedule! Finally! $100 for me! Generally I am all about fiscal responsibility -- maybe buy myself a nice US savings bond or invest in a mutual fund I'd say -- but, now, I think I may just spend it all on booze and loose women. Just to spite them. As much as a faceless, global corporation can be spited at least. (In all respect the company personnel were always very cordial and nice. Just slowly cordial. Very, very slowly cordial.)

So maybe I'll trick out my new bike. Maybe a horn? Gratuitous reflectors? Those rainbow colored click clack things you stick on the wheel spokes?
