But a McDonalds cone? I might switch to a yes voter.

Seeing Compass and Mesaba get sold off was like watching your best friends get the last two seats on the Titanic's lifeboat.
"At least they'll have a chance, just like ASA..."

I don't have any missing body parts, but I do have a SODA for a certain condition. The condition is pretty much gone but I still have the SODA. And a regular first class medical certificate. I have not been discriminated on that.

And congratulations on your SODA, you're special, but I'm sure your mommy told you that all throughout your childhood.

However, the whole non interview thing from WMU was just downright stupid on 9E's part. 9E screening is pretty minimal, but at least it was something.
