Another gift as part of the promotional weekend was a fifth of tequila.  I have never drank the brand, Hornitos, and I may never get the chance.  Like a dumbass I thought you can carry-on the bottle...why not, you can buy it at the duty free stores.  When the TSA agent informed me that I can not take the tequila with me, I had several options.  Mail the bottle to myself which would cost some money...probably more than the tequila is worth.  Go back out and check in the bottle...I did not have time.  Leave it for the TSA agents in appreciation for doing such a fine job keeping us safe...Cheers! 

The connecting flight out of Houston was delayed for over an hour.  While waiting, I had an excellent dinner at one of the airport lounges, Bubba's.  For beginners, I ordered a cup of Shrimp Gumbo...yum.  For the main dish, I had Cajun Shrimp.  I think Bubba was lost because he should have been in New Orleans not Houston.  Of course if I was in New Orleans, I would not have some Shiner Bock beer to wash down the meal.  If you like beer, I recommend that if you are in Texas try some Shiner Bock.  I was introduced to the beer by a co-worker from Texas, who was ecstatic when he found a bar in DC which served the beer.

I did not land into Baltimore until midnight.  I still have to get my car from the parking lot and drive home.  I do not think I will make it into work, tomorrow...I mean later today.
