Usually do ride. Was just raining out here for a few days and got bored and decided to see if the typical circle jerk was still going on. I guessed right. Nothing new except some screen names. Carry on and enjoy your reserve the next decade.

How short is your lanyard that your ID bounces off your chest? Mine bounces off my beer gut.

Yep, now that the BOD/management know the shareholders aren't buying what they are selling, they are busy trying to negotiate more gold into their parachutes with JB instead of the swift kick in the can they should be receiving.

Yeah I think this is what is happening as well. I am all but sure JB is the deal at this point. In regards to the email, Ted admits there is a problem with retention and attrition but doesn't feel now is the time to work on that. Its like saying you have cancer but due to your plastic surgery on the schedule already, lets pretend it doest exist for awhile.

Word from the reps is Franke is saying “no” on the contract, Ted is taking the orders from him. So where I think we are heading towards JBLU, Ted is still taking his orders from Franke. After all, Ted is trying to be the CEO of the new company so we here is no chance he is going to “give” us any more cash, just to be leveraged for higher rates in a JCBA with Frontier. Franke ain’t going to let that happen and Ted knows where his bread is buttered.
