Let's hope the Blackhawks can turn it around.

I walked in the break room and saw the score "dang, that was a hell of a beatdown"

"it's not even half time"

"holy crap!"

We love ya, NewK.

I haven't had as much to say lately either, which is saying a lot.

Try sending those recommendations into the front office of the Bears. They don't listen to me.

Newk. You are welcome to come melt with me. We both had rough weekends.

To be fair, I believe that I have always been responding to, and agreeing with, the point, which is that we are below the level of flying required by the PWA. My issue lies in my belief that you continue to mischaracterize the background behind this issue.

Agreed, because there are more Euros being counted in the mix. At this point, we've neither added nor lost any flying.

Since we're talking about percentages between two sides, that means Delta pilot's share of the flying has DECREASED while the Euro's share has INCREASED.

This is where we diverge. Our percentage share of this JV's EASK's was around 47% when Alitalia was first added to the mix, making their share 53%, and it remains there today. While we are contractually entitled to more, we were never actually there, so we've not actually decreased.

No one is spinning or apologizing or saying that we've suffered no harm. We are contractually entitled to 48.5% of the total flying, and we've only received around 47%. That is real harm for which we must be compensated.

All I'm saying that this flying is additional flying that due to us -- not flying that we once had that was taken away.

To put the Packer game into perspective....When we got in the van to go to the hotel last night the driver had the game on the radio. The pack scored 3 times while we were in the van on the way to the hotel.

Bama will beat Mississippi St. And then so will Ole Miss.

Bama will win all of their games... until the IB. Auburn, on a 2-0 run, will tie the game. But on the last play before OT, Sims will hit Cooper on a slant and he'll run 70 yards for the gamin winning touchdo... but pull a Utah. Auburn will pick up the ball and run 100 yards for the winning TD.

Then we'll go to da ship with the Heisman winner, Nick Marshall.

While setting up the surface, I got the impression from the instructions that the "professional" profile is not to be messed with at all. Is this true? No my radar app, or weblinks to adds weather?

I wouldn't mess with it- that is company property and is subject to FAA certification.

Radar and such will be coming. This is just the opening round with the two basic apps to get the thing validated, then more stuff will be added.

I for one will not be using the personal profile.
