Yeah, ok, sure. But not the apparent connections to me.

Continuous coulda included flush, as in a flush surface. Coulda shoulda woulda…

I’m not big on wine/beer, so I missed the flight. But would’ve had it if flight was in with nonstop, consecutive, or if there was an airline connection.

Basically fell for red herrings and went 0-4 outing. Can’t get worse than that :frowning:
