looks like my old life as a corporate travel agent...between airport codes for every airport known to man.......SMF, YYZ, BWI, IAH, FAT, DCA, FLL, MCO, SNA, ORD, HPN, SAT......to fare codes: Y7APNR.....KL14APNR.....(and anything else the airlines can make up)......to tax codes: XN, XC, XP, XT.....to record locator codes: JR34LK......so random!.....to carrier codes: AA, DL, HP, WN, US, UA, CO, AT, AS.....and it all means something! It's a sub-language....and only people who have been totally immersed in the industry can make any sense of it. I totally get what you are saying......

CIA? Is "drug rep" your secret identity? Well played, Megan. Well played.

Wouldn't that be great!? If she were a secret agent pretending to dish out the drugs? Now that's exciting.

So if that is the acronyms du jour, did you really use 'em all in one day? That's impressive.
