"We’re rocking like Potter at Am Sam 09.....

Flight to Chicago uneventful.  From Chicago to LAX, I was sitting in a recliner that went all the way into a bed.  You had your own 19 inch screen, choice of 20 movies or 30 TV shows (or more).    On the way to Honolulu, accommodations less than mind blowing, to say the least.  Flights were too tight, No Smokey in LA.  My flight was boarding when I got there.  The chicken was cooked well but the Portobello mushroom sauce was somewhat pedestrian and the plain white rice side was downright prison-like.   There was some gain realized with a spirited white California Chardonnay that accompanied the meal, actual providing a little snap.  The Vodka and Cranberry Juice was a poor substitute for a Splode.  When will they start putting the First back in First Class, Bobby......tell me that."
