Not all of us are altruistic like Saint Gunter .

If you haven't heard I love carry over. Willing to bet I am the biggest S/O carryover ho in 2008.

None of us has a responsibility to anyone who does not currently work here in my opinion. Are you implying that we do?

While I usually stay pretty close to my BLG - don't drop much or pick up much either way - I get sick of people talking about others BLG. I am here to make money, and I assume you are too. I have no idea what circumstances if any have caused you to need more than BLG this month, so I don't question it. I understand people not flying draft or extra at certain times - I just don't think this is one of those times.

You have to consider that the crew would probably layover after the last flight, then dh to memphis. Then the company would have to dh a crew back out sunday evening, or monday morning, and lay them over prior to flying. If the city is in a smaller city, then the six tickets for your acft type, might be very expensive.

I don't. I think the world works better when we each lookout for our own best interest.

I don't care how much anyone flys. I just think more lines is good.

1) Then you must be happy with all of DW's decisions.

2) "More lines good, few lines bad" ? Kinda simplistic sounding if you ask me. There has to be more to it


I believe in balancing competing interests.

Now I'm confused...did you mean a brighter rose color (maroon) or moron (an idiot)? I agree one of the above is a blind follower of DW--you guys can figure out which.

Personally, I find the Bugs Bunny pronunciation much less offensive. I figure if I got the joke when I was six most of the blind DW followers can get it in thier thirties . Although, I have been wrong before (certainly not about carry over).
