I would like to be on the judging committee, but I do not have a moustache.

Is furniture, somehow, required? A couple of bean bags won't do the trick?

If you had an out of base ws or gs request in for NYC you would have gotten the trip.
Wilbur is correct. Its a trip from another base.
(Except green slips aren't in the mix yet at that point.)

When you see a trip go thru open time with the "reserves only" comment it means they got to step 8 of the coverage sequence in section 23N.

If they can't find a reserve then the "reserves only" comment gets removed and that's when the trip goes green. (step 18)

Doesn't look like they were necessary at the particular moment that picture was taken either. I just find it curious that 80 wouldn't have decorated his house more, after all, he is a 737 pilot. They're rich.

Not bean bags, the vinyl can be sticky. More like this.

But sometimes the face, and especially the eyes, can draw you in and make you look at a photograph of a beautiful woman for far longer.

Quite annoying if you don't use Facebook or Twitter or whatever crapware they decided to force upon you.

There are several other apps that I consider essential for Android phones but I am sure my list differs from other Android users in this thread. As I recall on some Samsungs, Google Maps is not preloaded (and thus the freebie Goggle Navigation is not loaded), I also use an alternative gmail app called K-9, a volume control program with individual sliders for each ring/sound/notification/alarm and of course Firefox for iCrew. I have also used Radar Now while flight planning because it shows me a better wx radar depiction than ... um ... AmishAir.com. There are a few others that I won't list here.

Send me a PM if u need more help or suggestions and enjoy the freedom of a phone unfettered by Der Fuehrer Steve Jobs.

P.S. Grab that Tmo unlimited data plan and sit on it thru the merger. ATT has no more unlimited plans, the TMo plan is way cheap for unlimited, and you would likely be grandfathered on that plan after the merger.
Nosmo,

Thanks. I'll take a look at all the stuff you mentioned. Right now it's running great but it is brand new! I did get the unlimited plan. They have a promo plan going on. I did ask if there was an end date to it and they said no. With the plan I got it ends up being $20 a month (per line on the family plan). I was thinking the same thing that current users would probably be grandfathered.

Maybe its just me but they seem to be throwing around a lot of slips lately. I have been called 3 times this month for green slips but only took 2 of them. Still pretty high though.

Nothing says "Class" (pronounced Clee-ass) like a Chandelier!

Its also one of those rare cases where Scarlett Johanssen is beautiful - only when you put your hand over her mouth.
