Is the extension of the AE in celebration of football season being back, sorta like icing the kicker? The first AE I'm really curious how my bid is going to turn out and now they delay it a week. Another week for senior folks who forgot to bid to get their stuff in and keep the junior guys on the mat I say! :D

Rumor from one of the wigs on the other thread is that the delay is because some people were told they had a training freeze when they didn't.

My thoughts: Really?

Yeah....never trust him to make the largest, most seamless airline merger in history happen. Yeah, never trust him to manage the world's largest airline through the nation's worst economy in 70 years without furloughing any pilots. Yeah, what a douche!:rolleyes:

In JR High, while abroad, he explained how jelly fish stings could be neutralized with vinegar – in perfect Italian.

In high school, he used his knowledge of storm cells and tornadoes and saved the Newbergh Prep cheerleading squad after he explained they’d be safe in a low lying depression.

After high school, he applied to Princeton, for the position of Dean.

On a whim, he applied to Northwest Airlines, to fly the 747, they instead offered the DC-9, the only real man’s machine on property capable of containing his energy and attention.

For Newk, he understood that with knowledge comes confidence.




Yes. It's just like me to give doctors a fist bump and to have a full bottle of vinegar at the beach for bikini clad girls. I have to be overly-cool and overly-prepared to keep up with ferd. :D

Do you think if I donate my old 8086 machine then the bids might get done earlier?

For all you young folk (ACL) an 8086 was a computer chip whose first generation was derived to run a drill press. You may know it's younger offspring as the Gazillion Core Intel. I think I could fly the bid request to Japan on a 12 day trip, leave them with an elderly Japanese lady with an abacus, fly back with the results, faster than Delta's super "Tiger Direct" clearance compute used to process these bids.

I think the schedulers play "Zork" while they wait for the computer to spit out the bids.
