Southwest

<p>Well, I guess my new design isn't interesting enough to generate comments. Except for <a href="http://www.sscrawlinc.com">Evan</a> of course.
<p>I've decided to take a little vacation this summer. Kim and I are flying back to Florida for a little visit from June 4-10. My sister's graduation is June 5, and two <a href="http://www.dailyeatings.com/gallery/album01/aaj">friends</a> (Couldn't find a pic of rachel, sorry.) of ours are getting married on June 8, so its an opportune time to visit. The thing that clinched this deal is the fact that <a href="http://www.southwest.com">Southwest Airlines</a> is the cheapest airline ever. They have a <a href="https://us.etrade.com/e/t/invest/Story?ID=STORYID=etrade_2002_04_25_eng-etrade_cbs2_market_watch_eng-etrade_cbs2_market_watch_85127F7E-B627-4DAA-A3C5-5C22742624A5&provider=PRNewswire">"friends fly free"</a> program which means that we only have to buy <i>one</i> round trip ticket for both of us. This makes flying to FL this time almost half as much as it did when we flew ATA in December. I do not know how Southwest Airlines <a href="https://us.etrade.com/e/t/invest/story?ID=STORYID=etrade_2002_04_18_eng-etrade_cbs2_market_watch_eng-etrade_cbs2_market_watch_C29E7439-FD48-4B99-BBA2-9C14CB750400&provider=CBSMarketWatch.com">maintains profitability</a> with these ridiculously low fares even during a major slump in the airline industry, and as long as they keep doing what they do, I don't care.
