Northies, Red Tails, Blue Tails, I guess Green Tails, Southies, Western, DALN, DALS, FNWA, FDAL...

What are we becoming, Continental?

Nah. From what I can tell from having FNWA/Northies/Red Tails on our jumpseat and my interactions with other pilots on the line, the SLI is done. Next up is integration, SOC and of course that first joint AE. But the SLI isn't even mentioned except once in a while by a person I wouldn't care to be.

On even numbered days you have to say "Check". On odd numbered days you have to say "Checklist". On leap day, you are allowed to select your own modifier.

As for Bloch, he has an IQ of 2, but it takes 3 to grunt. He couldn't pour water out of a boot with instructions on the heel. I've fished with smarter bait. If Richard had another brain, it would be lonely.

Where do they keep her locked up? I might as well take one for the team. You know what they say about fat girls and mopeds. Or in the words of the great Dude:

You know dude's a dude, right, dude?

Hey, I'm not going to lie and say it was fair, it wasn't. It failed to recognize status quo. But, I'm not going to sit around and burn. I enjoy whining, and joking, about the screw job (when I'm not on the job) and damn if you are going to take that cathartic pleasure from me too.

Besides, can't help it, I'm Irish.

For all the trauma you've endured with SLI, it's a relief to know there's no bitterness in your Stout Irish blood just the normal p*ssed off positive waves. I'm Irish too so I know too well the rage and the angst that comes in between the puking and weeping. Nicely played.

Well done, Bar! Any chance you get your inspiration from the "wedding crashers"?
