Considering that half the time it wouldn't flush, you could also bring the admiring masses in for show and tell.

The other best part was there was no ventilation fan. And you could do it in formation with your buddy.

What kind of **** show were those pan am guys running. I said air show. But its true.

Thanks much for the Orange swag Buckleboy!

I was talking to one of our new hires (13 months) yesterday, he asked me, "What's that you are wearing?" speaking about my orange lanyard. I explained to him what it's about.

He said he wasn't allowed to vote in the last TA but would have voted no.
I haven't seen much other orange swag on other pilots since the ATL recall meeting though.

You need to see EWR then. I think there might be 3 working lounge chairs, a few broken office chairs, and a bathroom with a sign in the sink asking you not to pee in it. And no, I'm not kidding about the sign.

Well, in all fairness, that sink does look kind of like the old time metal troughs in men's rooms at sports stadiums. Wrigley field still has them. I've never actually pee'd in it though, as far as anyone knows.

Well, considering the rampers use that bathroom too, and we're talking about Newark, New Jersey. Home of Joe Bagadonuts.

I've got an icrew and a general GS question.

1. When filling out icrew to ask for a GS, when you fill out the section that says "enter all flying days for award", does that cover only the date of the actual award or is it supposed to cover all days of the trip?

2. When there is an available GS with <2 hours to report, does scheduling at least have to call people who haven't had a GS yet before they call those who have?

I ask since I was passed for a 2 day GS in favor of somebody who is senior to me but has already flown one. I am on a PB day (TOFF on schedule), I entered 03 Dec - 03 Dec under "enter all flying days for award", I have no restrictions on the GS request, and I'm on a RES day tomorrow. The GS in question is <2 hours to report, I saw it in open time and thought I'd be getting a call fairly soon but now I see it's been covered. Any ideas?
