Philadelphia airport snowstorm - Part 2

<p>

</p>

<p>I’ve been wondering the same thing all day! Here’s to Mudgette killing the interview.</p>

<p>Great news. Best of luck in all the rest.</p>

<p>Local news headline is currently reading “Taking It’s Sweet Time” - very sweet indeed for your daughter! Good to hear she’s safe.</p>

<p>So glad she got there!
I’m thinking my S who did not want to go to Stanford “because there’s no snow there” might sing a different tune right now!:)</p>

<p>Good luck to Mudgette on the interview and the rest of the trip!</p>

<p>Now you get to worry about the interview</p>

<p>Nah. I don’t care about any of that stuff much. She’s in at some really good schools already. I did want her to attend the interview and get to spend a day or two at Yale, given their history. :wink: That’s about it. </p>

<p>Now she may have other plans. ;)</p>

<p>katliamom,
I’m with you. No news from DS</p>

<p>Glad Mudgette arrived.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Oooh, I betcha I can guess! :)</p>

<p>Quick update–Son landed in Philly, now to get to new haven!! flight canceled, amtrak booked for 7 am tomorrow. looking for hotel. Yale accommodating. Still,… Traveling 2 days for an interview–ughh</p>

<p>OK OK, enough, u r all thinking, went thru this 2 weeks ago, & 3 weeks ago. I will keep anxiety to self, or just ignore my posts!!!</p>

<p>bw, priceline that hotel for him if you can. Name that price works like a champ for me. Even from the parking lot. I’ve sent you a p.m…</p>

<p>BTW $50 for a 3 1/2 star in Dallas last week-end. ;)</p>

<p>Now, I’d have said low 3 star but still…$50 ain’t bad.</p>

<p>So my husband’s flight this evening from Newark to Chicago was cancelled, so he’s taking the train to Philadelphia to fly out tomorrow morning. What is wrong with this picture?</p>

<p>That the airport may be shut down tomorrow morning? How about going all the way to Baltimore instead?</p>

<p>Curm…I’m so glad she made it to CT. Did she bring her ARK? She sure needs it!!! It’s been raining cats and dogs here all day…it’s disgusting. I guess I shouldn’t be whining…60 miles west of my house, there is a blizzard going on!!</p>

<p>I think they mentioned something about the…sun…for SUNDAY.</p>

<p>You have done so much for so many here on CC. The very least I can do is send my best wishes to Mudgette!</p>

<p>I just want her to have fun while she’s there. Thanks for the good wishes, as for the rest- </p>

<p>I’ve taken lots more than I’ve given. </p>

<p>and</p>

<p>We are all in this leaky boat together. :wink: </p>

<p>But I’ll pass along the good wishes.</p>

<p>Tell Mudgette to check out Firehouse 12. It’s a neat place on Crown Street in New Haven. Great jazz groups, nice lounge area…really neat.</p>

<p>Good info. I’ll pass it along. She ate at Leon’s tonight with a cc friend from the pre-med board (bluedevilmike- she was very impressed) . I hope she can make the acquaintance of some med students Friday as she has all day Saturday to explore the campus and the surrounding haunts.</p>

<p>just for the record - I live near the airport and so far only about an inch of snow on the ground.</p>

<p>She has to have the “famous” pizza in New Haven. Forgotten the name, but everyone knows about it…!!! </p>

<p>I think it’s Pepe’s
New Haven’s culinary tradition also includes a claim of being the birthplace of pizza in the United States. Contentious as that claim may be (see Gennaro Lombardi), New-Haven-style pizza, called apizza (pronounced ah-BEETS in the local Italian dialect), is made in a coal- or wood-fired brick oven, and is notable for its paper-thin crust. Apizza may be Red (with a tomato-based sauce) or White (garlic and olive oil), and pies ordered “plain” are made without the otherwise customary mozzarella cheese (pronounced sca-MOTZ). Locally, the White Clam Pie is favored. Pizzerias of distinction include Sally’s Apizza and Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana, both located on the same block in the Italian-American neighborhood of Wooster Square, Modern Apizza not far away on State Street, and upstart newcomer Bar, a Microbrewery located across Crown Street from Louis’ Lunch in New Haven’s “entertainment district” downtown.</p>
