I was supposed to fly home today from Palawan.... Fly to Manila then to Soeul then to Jfk then Buffalo... I got trashed last night and expected to sleep on the plane all day. The first leg of the flight was a separate booking, 55 min flight from Puerto princesa to Manila.... Was delayed 3.5 hours due to plane issue... So I miss my connecting flight... I get to Manila and the airline says because it's 2 legs they're not responsible at all... I fight this, I lose.. I Walk to Korean air, I spent 3 hours with them to try and rebook, no flight available for me for 4 days... Minimum, all overbooked. My only option was to purchase another flight on different airline.. Now I dropped a ton more money, have to fly to Hong Kong and then long layovers, just to get home. Airlines are the devil, they have no repercussions for their actions and it's so systematic that when there's a kink in the way things work, no one has any answer or clue what to do. Overbooking flights should be illegal, if I had any clout at all, I would try and force the issue, sadly I do not and here I am putting a claim on my chase travel card hoping to not eat a few grand just to not be stuck where I don't want to be. Rant over.

Ask and ye shall receive

Some of my shots from the trip

Red horse is an amazing beer 7% and eeliciousss

It's 3am and I'm hammered in Palawan Phillipines.. I have to wake up in 2 hours to cstxh a flight home.. Mf it.... I'm gonna meke it. Don't wanna leaveeee

I just came up from 102 ft, at one point I had a seahorse come to my finger. My complaint, seas are getting rough and the Dramamine hasn't kicked in yet.

I just finished my 3rd dive out in the Sulu sea today... I was looking for Thresher Sharks and Cuddlefish.... What I found was much less impressive... At the bottom of the Ocean, were your 2023-2024 Buffalo Sabres, They were stuck in the sand, and Donny Meatballs was failing to swim against the current.

Water here in Phillipines around 80 degrees, I only wear a 3mm wetsuit for skin protection but its certainly not necessary

I don't have much time, got to seoul and now on the next leg to Cebu... I'm exhausted, can't sleep in planes... Terry gone yet?

Taking off to Korea, I await my wifi to rejoin this conversation in 15 hours 😘 Before I take off... F U Terry and KO.

I was a Navy guy.... 😏

😂😂😂🍞 Terrible restaurant choice

And now I have a new pose to replicate when I'm home.

We combat it with cynicism and Misanthropy 😂

I think they're in the top couple for me... Those Krueger years, especially when Jack was getting annoyed; those are hard to top. I really do dislike this team a lot though.

Oh it's stupid. It's more about the mentality of this than the actual salute. Jesus, I get cursed at work daily,I don't stop practicing medicine because of it.

Last game overseas, I met LTS in Sweden and we saw Kucherov cheap shot our guy (Sobotka maybe) with no retribution and we folded and lost both of those.

This and the ducking media after games with a poor showing really do tell a tale. I get that the media isn't going to highlight anything groundbreaking, but you get paid millions, sit there and answer some questions. Your 2023-2024 Buffalo Sabres are a team of woke boys... Not men.

They need to save their strength, lifting those heavy sticks in front of 800 fans is tough work. I've said it before, this is one of the most unlikeable overall squads I've seen. They just don't have a whole lot of anything, just bleh.

I'll admit, I popped this on my phone with about 6 minutes left in the game... Up until they tied it, it wasn't looking very good.. Sloppy passes, no one at the net, can't keep it in at the blue line. I don't know what the rest of the game looked like. In OT, they were fine... I also hate 3 on 3 and find it hard to judge anything in OT fairly (except maybe bad coaching) Make no mistake, they won and it was kind of exciting, but this is a bad team. Nothing about this win made me feel good or like we turned any sort of corner.

At the airport, got a lot of flying ahead of me. Scuba trip to the Philippines, Visayas and Tubbataha areas. Hoping to get up close and personal with some thresher and whale sharks in the great open blue. This is my first long trip in quite some time and oddly enough I'm a bit nervous for it. Medically I'm nowhere near 100%, but F it, live once and live hard.

Got 20 runs in yesterday and the snow was not half bad. Enjoy it! Finishing packing up today for my flight to the Phillipines early Sunday morning. Gonna get my scuba diving back on, it's been too long.
