Sign language for a BJ? Its never worked for me but...hell why not...maybe I was asking the wrong girls? Well, actually in under your theory I would have to be signing to the wrong girls. Is the the ASL version of a BJ what we all used as kids for it? Not sure but probably a great video or SNL spoof of it somewhere.
You've seen how a married woman eats a banana, right?
She will hold the banana in her left hand, then she'll put her right hand on the back of her head and push her head down, onto the banana, making a face like this;
Try using that for BJ sign language, the married ones will get it.

Delta Air Lines (DAL) reports in a SEC filing (8-K) that unit revenues in March rose 2% Y/Y with gains from trans-Atlantic and Latin units partially offsetting a soft performance in the Pacific due to a weakening yen. The carrier says the reduction from previous guidance is due to lower close-in bookings. DAL -4.1% premarket.

Yep...I think the merged AA will be back at the well looking for concessions and threatening bankruptcy 3-5 years after their merger. I genuinely hope I'm wrong, but if not, DALPA (I mean we) have one chance to improve our contract before the downward pressure starts building again.
What makes you think that they will threaten BK again?

Buzz,
I have been a die hard Yankees fan since the Bobby Murcer days and I do agree that they are (mostly) old, slow etc, but lets not forget, they went all the way in 2009.
But I can always reminisce about the 1996 when they were down 2-0 in the series and getting their A$$$$s kicked by the Braves again in game 3 but then all of a sudden caught fire and won 12 consecutive World Series games - the last 4 in 1996, Sweep of Padres in 98, and another sweep of the braves in 1999.
So when say that they haven't been evil in years - I agree if you are specifically talking about 4 years.
I do however agree that this will be a tough year for the Pinstripes.

Oh you baseball fans. All these baseball posts. Yankees this, Red Sox that, Cubs never that, St Louis overcomes, blah blah blah.
You guys have nothing on the Atlanta Braves. While you guys talk players, coaches, trades, games, world series heroics and what have you, we Atlanta residents talk to each other. At the game. The whole game. We just sit there and talk and talk and talk. Or text and text or just play on the internet. We also go get some food. We like to cheer if someone, anyone, hits the ball over the fence. It's really neat. Fights are cool but rare. We love to watch the big tv and play their trivia games. I think there is a kiss cam too. Did I mention talk the whole game?
It's great, you get to do all of that while there is activity in front of you on a beautiful green field with loud music. And sometimes, you're having such a good time talking to the people you came with that you didn't even notice the game ended! Whoops!! We should have paid attention so we could beat the traffic. I think when they say this is the 8th inning you run to the car. But oh well, lets try not to get mugged and find our way out of this poorly designed highway system here.
Braves baseball. Live it. Ignore it. Text During It.

But be advised, Braves games do sell out. Maybe not in the regular season, or playoffs, maybe not even the world series. But when the Cubs, Yankees, Red Sox or Cardinals show up, we're sold out. And somehow outnumbered.
Also, we have pretty ravenous fans on the talk radio. Whenever the hosts talk about Braves baseball in April people call in from all over "what does this have to do with the DAAaaawgs?"

Yeah, I go back to the Murcer days too. He was my hero for a long time. My parents sent me to the 1978 WS where they were down 2-0 to the Dodgers. Yanks swept all three in NY and won the fourth back in LA. Ron Guidry, Reggie Jackson, Thurman Munson. That was a great team.
