Cats, lots of cats. I live near a bunch of flight attendants I guess. Or maybe a bunch of SWA pilots are kitten tossing again.

You might consider your own posts and your point of reference...use trip parking as an example. You commented about what you see as a workaround and that "all" the 777 crews in briefing are talking about it. 2 777A's that aren't ALPA insiders said they'd never heard any of what you talked about. Yet that wasn't circling the wagons?

Hmmmm.
Yeah you're right I just come on here to lie about crap. I'm so busted. Would it have made my trip parking comments more legally defensible on APC if I had said something like "in my experience how to trip park in our new contract is what the 777 crews are talking about in briefing?" So what, its THE topic of conversation.

I really never considered the term ALPA insider to be derogatory. I am an ALPA dues payer, no more than that. I dont have an ALPA job. Therefore I'm not an insider. If I had used waterboy, gerrymanderer, shill, etc. I could see your point.

Standard Slowplay tactic I guess, attack first and avoid the question.
What was the settlement?

Why is it a corporate secret?

The implication of this post, in my opinion, is that ALPA hasn't lost any monster lawsuits.

No, not really. When I was based there I always found it weirdly quiet and hot. Now, when I transit, I avoid it. I'd rather watch the mutants and dodge the intrepid traveler.

You need to consider another line of work. Perhaps comedy or tv. Or maybe perhaps a witty Matt Drudge like news website.

The area south of Atlanta definitely has its charms.
Just a reminder for all the ATL southside folks:

I know there are 4 MLB playoff games on today.
But take a break from the Yankee game and tune in TLC.
Our neighbor girl is on TV tonight.
