Probably not a good idea to party hard the night before your flight. Dehydration (caused by the alcohol) plus sitting nearly motionless for hours at a time on the plane would put you at higher risk of getting a bad blood clot in your leg.

Thanks for the reminder about DVT - I’ve already been thinking about the fact that I’ll need to do seated exercises and get up and walk around the cabin on the LA-Tahiti leg. It’s been about 6-7 years since I’ve been on a flight longer than 3 hours (let alone 11 hours).

Hey Dave,
What do you use to create your polls? I can’t find a poll creator that I like but I love how yours look. Is it a WP plugin? If so, which one? Or do you hard-core it and code them yourself? If so, would you create a wp plugin please? *grin*
