(that's a typical 777 crew in the briefing cubicle, just after we've settled who's getting the landing!)

The guy with the cigarette (a senior F/O) is about to say, "Yeah? So who's landing NOW? Get up Beoch! YOU are doing the breaks, AND the chart! You got a problem with that?"

I remember my first trip off TOE as a new hire. I walked into the briefing room and told the rest of the guys that my name is [FTB] and I heard that 2nd break was the best and I want to land this puppy, so I'll take both.

They appreciated me being so forward, so they said yes.

Then we got in the cockpit and the Captain said did you pull "the breaker?" And I said what breaker are you talking about? And then

Hey, I resemble that remark!

But in my mind, I resemble the guy with the cigarette!

This was from the last award, I discovered it when looking to bid today.

You need to contact Crew Resources. Lynn Ivey is the vacation guru over there. Hopefully you have a screenshot of your bid that was submitted with a timestamp before the deadline. The next round closes in less than 10 minutes.

That's pretty cool!

Hey Timbo..... I'm gonna be around your neck of the woods in a few months. If I brought you a case of torpedoes think I could bribe you into a ride on the racing cat? I wanna see that thing in action!

Problem is, why do I care about the weather channel? They're a reality tv show. I'm not even sure if they show weather. I want to somehow say to both parties, the weather channel sucks and the app ain't that great either. I like how directv put it:

Besides, there is a new weather channel that's a lot like watching the weather channel 10-20 years ago. It's great.

Bingo! Part of the deal is that the TWC was trying to extort more money per subscriber. I wonder if I could talk Uverse into dropping the TWC, cut my bill by a buck and give me the weather channel that actually shows the weather when I turn to it.
