Yes, indoc in ATL, A/C training in MSP (for 320 anyway)

Yes on the 16th, mixed with new hires. I go for a week, and then come home. Aircraft training to be determined down the road. I had a prior conflict with the 8/2 class, so he said I could do the 16th. Not sure if there are other recalls in there with me or not.

I was flying Corporate, Challengers and Floatplanes. Someone asked. I also had 15 or 16 other jobs since 9/11, but that's another story.

I'm on reserve, and I'm not going to break 70 so I don't think I'd get a settlement. In fact, the hours were fewer on the trip I wanted.

My frustration is that you have to reduce your raw score to get them to consider what trip you're asking for, and then when they don't give you that trip they give you something else. Had you not reduced raw score you may not have gotten anything. Granted, you have to be careful when you reduce the raw; I would have gotten something so it was worth doing had it worked out the way it should have.

I did call ALPA 5 mins after getting the "sorry, made a mistake" answer. He said it looked like that to him as well, and if I wanted to the other trip to ask to speak to a supervisor. The trip got in two hours earlier; that was the only benefit to it so instead I called and asked to get off SC 2 hours early. Sure, they may have given it to me anyway, but it was nice to get it with 5 hours to go.

I used an iPhone 2G on T-Mobile for two years with no trouble. You have to be careful with the updates, but as far as I know, they can't push updates. They didn't for two years, I know that. The worse case is that you update your software before the new Jailbreak is ready and you have an updated iPhone that isn't Jailbroken.


I'm on a 3G with t mobile, works great, half the monthly bill.

Can't wait for Verizon to get them, I don't plan on switching cause I hate Verizon's customer service, but at least AT&T will have to start offering more competitive pricing for once.

This is genious. Now I just need to figure out how to make this my signature.

This has been a test of the Scope Emergency System. The posters of this forum in voluntary cooperation with themselves, have developed this system to keep you informed in the event of a scope emergency. If this had been an actual scope emergency the Attention Signal you just read would have been followed by weeping and gnashing of teeth in a textual format and possibly some oversized fonts. This concludes this test of the Scope Emergency System. Continue on.

Nice FTB,

I'm thinking of allowing the APC crowd to install a scope siren on top of my house (sorta like the tornado sirens here in the midwest) in case LM or anyone else decides to try and push a scope deal through for a XX% raise.

Probably wouldn't help, but would at least **** off my neighbors a little bit. What was that whole thing about drinking and posting . . . . ?

Do you remember the tornado warning that'd go off at Auburn at 12pm every Wednesday? I'd get so excited, I love bad weather, and then I'd realize its noon on Wednesday and I'd be disappointed.
