Best, most entertaining thread, ever!!
I'd prefer you guys drop the "Timmy" nickname and call him by his rightfully-earned callsign: Milkman.
Check your six, Milkman! Fire or clear! Damn, I could take the shot from here! Yee haw -Jester's dead. She's lost that lovin' feelin'. Milkman's dangerous.
I'd be Milkman's wingman anyday.

Probably so, but if you start nominating people you don't know very well - its not if, but when, you will be burned.

The plot thickens, oh wait it's too late for that.
Purple, reposting BO just for you.
"Hi all. Like many others, I'm new here. I'm a corporate guy, former NDARNG (enlisted), and former airline (Atlantic Coast/Independence Air). Found this thread through a link at *************.com yesterday.
I was employed by Atlantic Coast Airlines and was involved with ALPA there as one of the communications committee chairs... I can tell you that having looked over several different seniority lists and other supporting documents, I can find no information that shows that our friend Tim was ever furloughed from ACA. If he was hired in the last class at ACA, he would have been hired before the end of his third year of college, so like much else, his timeline doesn't match up...
~J "
And another, this is just downright cruel:
"Be sure to join the Tim Martins is my hero! Facebook group!
Classic "
