Near disaster struck last night. I got a call at 5:00 from Tracey who was stuck at the train station. Aparently a train car had derailed and she couldn’t get out to Islip to catch her 7:20 flight. I flew to pick her up at the Hicksville train station only to be slowed by a torrential downpour!
Finally, I got to Hicksville and we got into the H.O.V. (Black Diamond, Most difficult) lane and flew back to McArthur Airport (See, I work one block from the airport) just in time to find out that her plane was an hour delayed 🙂
Well, At least I made good use of my Hero points ….
You definately earned some good hero points that day … without you I would have ended up crying and yelling at everyone at the train station ..and that would be bad.
Okie
I didn’t earn one, I spent one… It’s a Role Playing term…. Certain gaming systems allow you to earn/use “Hero Points” to accomplish great (near-impossible) feats.
