I don't know what has changed but whatever it is, I love it. This is by far the best December line ever. I am completely shocked that my line solved by layer 2. I was sure it would solve by layer 5 or 6. That sure makes my day!

December '11 Bid's Nuts and Bolts
Rather than doing three posts this month as was my custom (Nuts and Bolts, Strategy, and Award), I'm going to combine the Nuts and Strategy and all that into one post. Hopefully, for the one person that might read this besides myself, this will create an easier flow of things. Of course, this is purely educational for me since a good bid and award can easily make or break my sanity.
We start off bidding for December coming off a great November. Lots of good flying, solid hours, and not too many trips on or over Thanksgiving. I imagine at least 75% of the FAs in COS will be enjoying turkey-day at home.
