The most important lesson to learn, is your not 80, and you never will be.

But remember, tap on the guitar.
I know, I know...I'll never be clamp. But you DO have to be careful with that guitar stuff:

Nope, definitely not that. Just those that are entrenched and brainwashed are entrenched and brainwashed. It's really not that difficult of a concept.

It's this dang E-collar that makes it hard to fit in the cockpit...

Any more questions?

You could also say that people that are simplistic and unsophisticated try to come up with simple solutions to complex problems and thus find themselves always feeling especially wise when in fact they are just being simple minded.

On the CAL Town Hall conference call a couple of weeks ago, our MEC Chairman responded to a question that ALPA President Moak would most likely have an announcement within a couple of weeks. Sure enough this comes out so there must have been enough movement where the MEC chairs knew something was going to be announced.

From a Delta press release:

ATLANTA, April 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta Air Lines (NYSE DAL - News) today issued a statement from CEO Richard Anderson regarding the expansion of TSA's Crew Personnel Advanced Screening System to additional U.S. airports:

"We commend TSA's efforts to advance streamlined security screening for our pilots. However, TSA should not overlook the integral role of flight attendants who share responsibility with pilots for the safety and security of our customers," said Richard Anderson, Delta's chief executive. "Continued progress in this area must be made by recognizing that flight attendants are trusted trained professionals who undergo comprehensive background checks and deserve to be included in this program."

However, you seem to fail to recognize that bloated bureaucracies create complexities that might not need to exist in the first place.
