It looks like you are more than holding your own without me.

Those individual responses to each sentence / premise are devastating.


And this is coming from someone who is still willing to take responsibility for ALPA's actions.

The opener will tell me all I need to know.

BTW, it's good to be back.

A lawyer who tells his client what he wants to hear, then proceeds to rack up infinite numbers of billable hours in pursuit of a goal he knows is virtually impossible is not doing his client justice...he's padding his wallet.

Meanwhile "success" at not implementing the seniority list has come at such great expense. The Captains at Airways make the same as most Delta FO's. A Pyrrhic victory at best.

Interesting that you think blocking a list at all monetary and ethical costs is a "success". You haven't changed.

I've heard second-hand that DPA was starting to spread yet another untruth. I knew if there was a fib to be told I could count on Carl. Now I've heard it first hand!

This is factually incorrect and it's intended to deceive Delta pilots into thinking that DPA is financially viable to commence Section 6. They aren't and they can't possibly be. Early openers are just 6 or 7 months away.

If you ever tried to untangle that money and distribute it, you would have to go "first-in, first-out" so you'd have to find retired pilots and refund them their surplus before you could give it to anyone else.

Do some quick math and figure out what the DPA promise of 1% does in half a year.

Which is probably why the pan-handling has escalated in recent emails. I saw one where he asked people to donate a whole rotation's worth of pay. ROFL
That's more than we pay to ALPA in a whole year.

Carl Spakler (without the "c"), you are one heck of a cool aid drinker. Sure you not sick of it yet? Because it sure sounds like it.... That amount of posts, the DOH, and already attacking the REAL Carl, you just must have had too much.

Buzz,

No ****. I am considering bidding to the ER just to escape.

You're in good company, I think we're all growing tired of Cohen, Weiss, and Simon.

I'm hearing from folks that they're telling the MEC we cannot pursue RAH holdings because our Section 1 is weak.

Is that true?

I do believe you are correct.

Basically she's naked, right? I don't understand body painting...

Kate Upton was photographed by Stewart Shining in New York, New York. Body Paint and Make-up by Joanne Gair using Body Art Products by Reelcreations. Swimsuit by Seafolly.Kate Upton was photographed by Stewart Shining in New York, New York. Body Paint and Make-up by Joanne Gair using Body Art Products by Reelcreations. Swimsuit by Seafolly.

After posting a massive picture of a cat playing the PS3 80 comes around with posting naked pictures of models. The question is, is that enough to redeem him for the massive picture of a cat playing the PS3?

But now that you point this out I wonder how many pilots will be applying tonight to be a Body Paint and Make-up artist?

I've heard the DPA said the war chest goes to them but let's say you're right and they're wrong... so what does DALPA plan on doing with that money if DPA is voted in?

Is DALPA going to send it all to Herndon and to LM or give it back to the pilots whose wage dues created it?

To me that would sure sound like DALPA is for ALPA or itself before it is for Delta Air Lines pilots, wouldn't you agree?
