For any of you northerners or west coasters who slid into Atlanta on this bid, here's a little local color for you.
Walmart nail salon brawl sends teen to the emergency room
By Mike Morris
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
8:40 a.m. Wednesday, November 23, 2011
A knock-down, drag-out fight at a nail salon inside a Gwinnett County Walmart sent a teenage bystander to the emergency room with shattered teeth and a sliced chin.
Channel 2 Action News reported that the melee took place Monday inside Regal Nails at the Walmart on Centerville Highway outside Snellville.
The station reported that witnesses said a woman walked into the salon, became upset with the pricing, and spent the next half hour cursing at workers and other customers.
The brawl broke out after the children of that woman clashed with the child of another customer.
"And from there, it was off the chain," a witness told Channel 2. "Bowls were flying, glass was flying, hair was flying, braids was flying, weaves was flying, everything was flying."
One of those flying bowls, a porcelain soaking bowl, hit Ashley Corbett, 17, in the face as she waited to get her nails done.
"As I headed toward her, all I could see was just blood," Corbett's mother, Gail Dudley, told Channel 2. "She opened her mouth and her teeth were shattered."
According to witnesses, the woman who threw the bowl that struck Corbett ran from the store. Police are still looking for the woman.

No - I was just switching bases from NYC7ER to DTW7ER and I went at the very end of the conversion window. It goes by the order in the PWA - I think it's AEs and VDs first, by senority then MDs by inverse senority. But a lot depends on training requirements too. The conversion list should be out in a week or so.

Of what is available now, the F150 with EcoBoost is just unbeatable. Can tow 11,500 pounds, rip a 14 second quarter mile and deliver 22 to 24 miles per gallon with six people in the cab.
I bought an 11 F150 after flying up to Detroit, attending the EB tear down event and meeting Ford's Director of V6 Powertrain Development. I've had a 24.1 MPG tank and have averaged 19.7 with towing and a lot of stop and start, back up, running around real estate stuff.
... and to keep the thread on topic, the F150 is the best all around vehicle for a Delta pilot. It is faster than it should be (for the"when can you get here" short calls) has plenty of room for bags, is economical and has terrifice resale value (a furlough hedge) and it gives you instant credibility as a contractor (since most of us have extra jobs, are in the "real estate business" or are slum lords of one ilk or another).

Thus, you might be late for a short call. hahah

So they want to mandate that no airline can charge for the first bag.
In related news, the House is considering a bill which would require every chain restaurant to provide a free appetizer.

Isn't there a lawn and garden section? Just go get a shovel. Who knows, maybe the prices are falling on shovels! Just like people will be. It's a good deal, serves two purposes here.
I will say I'm glad the crowd assisted. I hate the videos where nobody does anything and you're left wondering, what is this? Penn St?
obligatory on topic... I love Delta but I want to start an airline too. Seems fun. Have no idea what. Just want to do it. Maybe LAX-SEA in a domestic DC-10-30. Then LAX-JFK or something. Something classy. Which means no people. Just flies around for no good reason at all. Maybe just cargo below deck.
