By The Numbers

The weather is cold and the ground is brown, but, be it ever so humble, there is no place like home. I got back in the Twin Cities this morning and just happened to be on the same flight from Tokyo as the Governor. Don't worry T-Paw. What goes on in Northwest's World Business Class, stays in Northwest's World Business Class.

If you happen to be in said World Business Class seating anytime in the near future, you may want to check out the in-flight trivia game that is offered through the personal entertainment system. You'll find yours truly holding down three of the Top Ten scores, including the number one position.

I've now been through Tokyo's Narita Airport six times in the last year and my streak of stopping in the Northwest lounge for a beer perfectly poured by Japanese technology remains intact. Six for six baby. Tradition is a good thing.
