Thanks. I am hoping to group up with some new hires in my class who are in the same boat as me.

Animal House is a really old movie. This guy is 20 something. Who is dated?

Thanks. Looking forward to it.

1. I could find just as many reports for any other neighborhood in Chicago. Their mere existence means nothing by itself.

2. Not that we can prove it but they're all gang related. These guys come into the nightlife area (read hip-hop clubs) around WP and get into it with each other.

3. I've walked all over that neighborhood at all hours and never felt unsafe because these incidents aren't frequent.

You might not have to be there for long if you don't want to. I moved up 26 spots in the last vacancy bid. Everyone who wanted out if LGA got out.

ORD lives!

"I'm not dead yet!"

Was 39 the original planned number or did we lose a couple?

Is the 175 going senior because it's bigger or is it for DFW? I heard you need to be like 40 and above to get it.

DFW, bigger, automation, SJS, and others. I am 35 and missed it by 5 slots which didn't matter because I didn't want the plane. So if you're expecting to get it and under 40, be prepared for disappointment.
