OOOHHHH GREAT AND POWERFUL LOWECUR, who art in the Halls of Aviation Knowledge please lend us your power so that we might be of greatness and knowledge that rivals other mortals and may approach your greatness. Please walk us simpletons through the ignorance of our own companies and show us how we will all fail and the Great Embrear shall deliver all who buy it to being the one true airline, amen.
ROTF...

We all find it depressing that the smart money is looking for a way to start new airlines with smaller planes from EMB (yes that includes the 190). We know the evidence points toward legacies looking to get into Ch 11 to reset labor contracts/scope clauses and give 90-100 seat jets to regionals (IMHO that will definitely happen!). Those of us who think SWA and others are immune are not students of history. If this cycle continues even JetBlue and Airtran will become the "high cost" carriers and suffer a fate similar to UAL and Delta. This is the cycle that Americans call "The competitive marketplace". You young pilots at SWA, JetBlue, and Airtran...laugh now while you can. We'll see how things look in 10 years.

Lowecur, you are spending way too much time on the computer. If you were to rub the state of their industry in the face of displaced coal miners, textile workers, steel workers, or telecom industry employees the response would be the same. Distaste for your comments.

I'd like to ask everyone to treat each other with a little more dignity. (not applicable to the above quote...that was really funny)

I am not prejudice (except ERJ:) ). I have been in discussions with many pilots on this board from various carriers that are both profitable, and otherwise. I may or may not be right in most of my prognostications but I think anyone who works for the airline I am discussing or may want to work for them, is interested in a contrarian opinion. Fortunately there are pilots who will argue the world is flat, if they thought anyone would question their employers future. This makes for interesting dialogue and in some instances, great entertainment.;)

While not a big fan of Curtis Lowe, I applaud his use of the scene from Caddyshack. Gunga galunga.

One of my favorite songs, and a great group to boot.:)

Well I used to wake the mornin, before the rooster crowed. Searchin for soda bottles to get myself some dough.

Brought em down to the corner, down to the country store. Cash em in and give my money to a man named Curtis Lowe.

Old Curt was a black man, with white, curly hair. When he had a fifth of wine he did not have a care.

He used to own an old dobro, used to play it 'cross his knee. I'd give old Curt my money, he'd play all day for me.

Play me a song Curtis Lowe, Curtis Lowe. Well I got your drinkin money, tune up your dobro. People said he was useless, them people all were fools, cause Curtis Lowe was the finest picker to ever play the blues.

He looked to be sixty, and maybe I was ten. Mama used to warn me but I'd go see him again. I'd clap my hands, and stomp my feet, try to stay in time. He'd play me a song or two, then take another drink of wine.

Play me a song Curtis Lowe, Curtis Lowe. Well I got your drinkin money, tune up your dobro. People said he was useless, them people all were fools, cause Curtis Lowe was the finest picker to ever play the blues.

On the day Old Curtis died, nobody came to pray. Old preacher said some words, and they chucked him in the clay. Well he lived a lifetime, playin the black man's blues. And on the day he lost his life, that's all he had to do.

Play me a song Curtis Lowe, hey, Curtis Lowe. I wish that you was here so everyone would know. People said he was useless, them people all were fools, cause Curtis you're the finest picker to ever play the blues.

RVZ - one of a kind:cool:

The dog is a rescue, but he could be Staffie, Pit, American Bull, just not sure.
Staffordshire/Pitbull terrier is basically the same animal. The american bull terrier (spuds McKenzie) is also part of the same family. I too have a dog we rescued in 1998. He is a fawn and white Staff great home protector and will die to protect my wife and boys!!! He is extremely protective of our 5yr old.
