We parked all of our 747-400s. Had 44 of them at one time. What a cockpit. Huge and sitting so high up, walked up stairs to get to it. Four engines, four independent hydraulic systems, generators etc. Now I sit in a relatively crowded cockpit on the two engine 777 with four pilots during takeoff and landings. The crew rest area sucks, but the same lovely AARP fight attendants...just less of them complaining how they are understaffed. Earlier today while you were all still in bed and I was flying home over the North Pole, I asked for a fresh cup of coffee to return to the cockpit after my rest break, the old hag was pulling apart the paper cups stuck together...her fingers inside the cup that she ended up pouring my cup with coffee that was over an hour old. I went to the aft galley after pouring out the coffee and rinsing out the cup in the Lav for a fresh pot of brew. So yes again, Danke was proactive and did something. Why fly another airline to visit your grandma, when you can come fly United and fly with your grandma? PS. During my break, I was dreaming, and during my dream I was a cargo pilot. No passengers, nor dealing with passenger terminals. No customer representative agents to deal with, and best of all, no flight attendants. I was walking around the aircraft and sitting in the cockpit in my PJs. Then I woke up from my dream to the nightmare and had to wait with a full bladder for a constipated passengers to leave the lav so I could vacated my cave...

I wouldn't be surprised. They did the same thing to Jose Guerena: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?292318-Ex-Marine-gunned-down-by-SWAT-team&p=3268628&viewfull=1#post3268628 It's probably unofficial SOP (or hell, it might even be official SOP). All for "officer safety", of course ...

I'll bet, everyone's a winner in those debates, too.

One of the issues for any bank to consider is a run on the currency. Not having enough assets to meet liabilities is not a simple, "It's not an issue." It means they are bankrupt and are fraudulently siphoning away gains using other people's money. While I don't expect government school drones to wake up from an epiphany and declare that the banks cannot meet all of their obligations, it is still an unpredictable possibility which could arise rather quickly. GDP is misleading as it includes some government spending. That said your point is a fair one.

Yeah, they are trying to defranchise the majorities...

That's right... it's really a URO. (Unidentified Rolling Object)

Triggered something in her, that's for sure.

You callin' Ron Paul a liar???

Don't feel so bad, you make more than I do.

I say, all y'alls.

If someone makes a playlist for their toaster, this song should be on it.

Hey! I'm a window breaker-fixer and more important and I make less. That's not fair! :eek::mad:

Very good point. It's times like these that make me really ponder: what would Che Guevara do, you know? Probably a documentary, you know, maybe he'd camp outside of the wrong office for change? I think ultimately he'd settle for seizing the means of production and then executing gays but it's just so edgy to think about.

Mud Wrestling reaches a new high! Ivanka V Chelsea 2024. Get your tickets now!

Don't ask me how but I think if all cars gave off zero emmisions this problem will be solved. We need a WWII style overhaul. I know it's vague but trust me, you don't ask a fish how it swims, you know? Next question.

They will create 96 month loan, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will fine them a couple billion for producing cars that don't last as long as the loan. It's a win/win for the government as well as the automakers.

When you look at auto loan delinquencies you see the same thing. I wonder what Congress will do when it is realized by many that their 84 month auto loan (which was needed to keep payments low enough for the average worker), is not worth the depreciated cost of their three to five year old vehicle?

Indeed! The same talking points have been around for decades. Murray responded to them at least once that I know of, as did Hayek. (see "The Austrian Theory Of The Trade Cycle", compiled and edited by Clifford Thies)

:tears: Yep! That's him. Champion pie eater!!! BTW, I got a little statue of the golden girl (Jill Masterson) from Goldfinger for VD.

I was hoping to be a cherry pie eater.:(

Congratulations Suzanimal! Based on your application, your new, very important profession under the Green New Deal will be Window Breaker-Fixer and your new salary will be $148,733/yr. Window Breaker-Fixer: $148,733/yr Common Because Keynesian Economics is a totally respectable field of study, it is proven that to generate wealth, all we as a people have to do is repeatedly break windows and then fix them. We estimate that for every 10 window breaker-fixers, we will generate enough money to cover the livelihoods of 93.7 normal American adults. Thus we will quickly be able to sustain the entire economy in no time. If detractors ever try to claim that the rewards of socialism do not have a reliable funding source to continually pay for all the promises, simply educate them about broken windows.

This is just a lie. There is no other word for it

That's especially true of social security. The older you are, the more assets you likely have. Social Security takes from the poorest class of workers, the young, and hands out the cash to the wealthiest, the old. It's a great gig. But the media has done a bangup job of showing seniors as poor people eating cat food to stay alive in their little shacks with leaky tin roofs.

LOL @ "only." If I walk into a private sector job and manage to cut expenses by 25% I'm a freaking genius.

I must say I am beginning to hear a lot of the same talking points I heard in 2007. Debt isn't bad, and the fundamentals of our economy are strong. We'll see, I guess.
