I looked at this list, thought no way was this 1996, that Green Day song was huge in 1998, and sure enough, look at the top. It's not 30 quite yet. (Brimful of Asha was 98? I would have guessed that was a UB40-clone from 1988.)

2025 flight log not especially interesting:
5119 nm on a single one-way trip (Washington was the origin).
At least I got my first trip on a 787-10.

I love these. Burger stand an hour south of Plovdiv (6.50 Lev is about 4USD). Real cheese that doesn't melt. Tomatoes that you know are the best part. A 2003 Skoda Octavia or something parked out front. And whatever a "Princess" is.
