First they bomb Pearl Harbor then they beat Brazil at its own game on its own litter strewn turf. What gives! (Smiley)

Congrats on the profits everyone.

Only 1.5 billion? That's pitiful.

Maybe if the Eagle guys voted for concessions... then AMR could really make some money.

Now ask yourself, why is that?

A 0-0 tie after 120 minutes has a lot to do with why nobody in the USA watches it, and why he's getting paid more kicking field goals.

Good news all around.

Pat yourselves on the back boys, that's YOUR MONEY! That's your lost DB retirement plan and your pay cuts.

They just moved it from the "Cost" side of the ledger to the "Profit" side, via bankruptcy abuse.

No worries, I'm sure ALPA will have a statement reminding them of that, any day now...
