Alfa, please say you're not talking about you and your daughter.

I think he is. I believe this is for real. Am stunned. I think maybe the L&G can observe a minute of silence for a bit. We don't agree about everything here, but I know we agree about how we put our kids, in the hierarchy of things.

I feel sick to my stomach.

Sir;

I am deeply saddened for you and your family. I cannot imagine the sorrow you feel. If you need anything please do not hesitate to call upon me at any time.

Alfa,
Have you and your family in my prayers. Can't imagine the pain of your loss. May God be with you in your time of sorrow.

Alfa,

I hope and pray that this is not a story that describes what you are going through. If so, my prayers are with you and your family. If there is anything you need, please PM me. I'm sure everyone else feels the same.

Just sayin.



In other words, we have to keep management from walking away from the table at all costs. Even if it means accepting the first offer from management prior to Section 6 even beginning, and fully funding any gain with concessions in other areas.

These are the kind of statements that certainly make me question whether you have any resolve at all...other than doing what you're told to do. The phrase "growing a pair" comes to mind, but I'm reminded of a female friend who says we've got to start replacing that phrase with "growing a vagina". After all, "those things take a pounding."

Carl, I was going to roll in on you because you're such a pompous a$$ but in light of what's going on it's just not worth it.
