I left my heart....

I'd say in San Francisco but I'm closer to San Jose this week so I guess I should be singing, Do You Know the Way to San Jose. I like that song too. One of the first times I came out this way, we had equipment problems on the plane and ended up having to fly into San Jose instead so our flight attendants started singing it. I thought it was funny. Speaking of sometines funny , sometimes not airplane events, our plane sorta lost power yesterday before takeoff. It had happened to me before on another flight so it didn't surprise or scare me too much but when they went to fire up the engines as we were being pushed out, everything went dead. The auxiliiary power systems run all the lights and a/c and everything else in the plane and if it's not completely charged, the current draw required to start the engines will shut everything down. There were lots of jokes on the plane about calling the FAA for a jump start or having a flat by the side of the runway.

It was a good flight though. We had a Deltta airplane that had the individual entertainment consoles so I wazs able to watch TV for a few hours and then create my own playlist from the CD's they had loaded while reading my book for the rest of the time. I'm reading Digital Fortress by Dan Brown and it's awesome so far. I finisehd Deception Point last week and it was equally as awesome. That man knows how to write some books.

I hope everyone had a great weekend.

Up until Nookie clarified it for me earlier in the year, I thought that song was, Do you know the way to Central Bay?"

Glad you flight made it here okay. Whew.
I had trouble finishing Digital Fortress. I flew through his other books so I'm not sure why I had trouble with that one.

San Jose is a pretty town too. In fact, I dont know if they have an ugly towns in California. It took me a bit to get really into Digital Fortress but once I did, I couldn't put it down.

I, too, struggled with Digital Fortress but read the rest of his books with no worries.
