Trap Draw: Chop Sessions

If flying in to Newark and going to the city, the NJ transit buses are awful. Airtrain - NJ Transit Train - PATH is the best way to get to Manhattan.

I couldn’t be more happy and I hope Portnoy never comes back to The Dozen.

(He’ll definitely be back)

The TRIVLeague is gaining steam, many teams are starting to defect to this new league. Including team ForePlay. Never knew Riggs, Frankie, and Trent to be turncoats.

As someone currently sitting in a wall to wall packed seating area of delayed flights at HPN, I truly can’t believe anyone considers this a good airport by any measure.

TC is definitely flying private when he flies into HPN for a quick 18 at Winged Foot. The C-Suite life is rough…

Why is Westchester “HPN”?

Per Wikipedia:

The IATA code for Westchester County Airport is HPN. The origins of this code are in dispute. Some believe it is derived from the name of the city, White Plains (IATA codes normally do not begin with W because those are reserved for radio signals), while others maintain the IATA code represents the first letter of the airport’s three neighboring communities, Harrison, Purchase, and North Castle.[24] The full ICAO code for Westchester County Airport is KHPN.

it has always bothered me that Newark is EWR and when I read this, it gave me a glimmer of hope that maybe they did something like Elizabeth, Westfield and Rahway but wiki once again corrects me that the reason is

The airport has the IATA airport code EWR, rather than a designation that begins with the letter ‘N’ because the designator of “NEW” is already assigned to Lakefront Airport in New Orleans. Also, the Department of the Navy uses three-letter identifiers beginning with N for its purposes.[

Pretty sure this is also the reason that Norfolk International Airport is ORF.

The pigeon was captured by the Mumbai police in May near a port last year where it was found with two rings on its legs and a message that appeared to be written in a Chinese language.

Investigations by local police found that the pigeon was actually an open-water racing bird from Taiwan that had lost its way and accidentally ended up in India.

This has to be the year. @Tron maybe a Season preview!

And with some WI trips on the books for this year, might have to get some TrapDraw correspondents on the ground to monitor some of the spots they feature.
