I don't want to walk in and hear someone in the crowd say "that's got to be FTB!" and someone else then say "YOU SOB. BTW, have you ever thought of proofreading??!?!?"

I always think that little errors that dive some nuts are worth having in a post. Its like a itch that you can not scratch. Or is it a scratch that you cannot itch?

Junior Seau suicide????

Too bad. I always wanted that guy to have a SB ring, I had to chear for the Giants, but he almost pulled it off the undefeated season with the Pats and I would've enjoyed watching him enjoy that.

And Heath Evans. Who lived in the apartment below me at Auburn. Just so I could say I met someone who won a super bowl.

But I get consolation prize, I knew someone who slept with two NFL pro bowlers.

I guess you don't want to say what HIS name is on a public forum?

Hoping you were there last night, but alas I didn't get to meet the infamous FTB!

So for all those getting PM'd by sinca, is your overall impression positive or negative?

The under-current administration cheerleeders on the webboard are already pushing the block-hour versus hull count line of the MEC admin.

They don't post anything unless they coordinate with the rest of their CVG possie on their talking points, so if you read between the lines, you can bet your bottom dollar its already in writing about trading 50 seaters for 76 seaters, and have agreed to block hour limits versus a hull count.

If you haven't already called your reps, and let them know that NOT ONE MORE HULL is acceptable, then I pray you do so...and I don't pray a lot.

MOST LEC REPS ARE NOT BEHIND THIS. Don't let them get strongarmed into a bad deal.

No hull limit? I do not see that passing the reps. I can see a block hr/ASM limit with a hull limit being more likely.

Wait for the details, but press your reps. I do not think that the reps are going to be arm wrestled in to anything.

hull limit.

i can't imagine doing asm or block hours unless someone wants to try and explain why that's a better metric.

Think of it this way, that is about 5 fewer days you have to spend away from home in stuck in a hotel in MSP! The good news is that MTC isn't as draconian on the dress code. A few more months and you would have had to go to ATC.
It's also a big chunk of change we are losing out on by training for free. They have a fashion police at DATCO?
