Today I have six auditions -- my pick of the day: a :30 TV spot for pRon addiction.

The major burning question is, does it make me a hypocrite if I book the job? ;) :eek: :eek: :eek: ;)

Katie Couric was just referred to on Rachael Ray as a "Hero of the Colon". That's accurate on a level that the show's writers probably weren't thinking of.

I routinely see international flight crews who clearly flew into IAD (LH, AF, VS, BA, etc.) staying at hotels in downtown DC or my neighborhood.

Speaking of SQ and the IAH-DME route, I am seeing $350+taxes ($700 ai) for that flight. Not a terrible price.

Manual is too time-consuming for me. I like to put it in D and go. I've become a much better city stick driver thanks to the parking job, but doing so has not increased my desire to own a stick.

It ain't much (and it's a little more now than what was in that pic) but for central Texas, that's huge.

carsonheim, if I get into SAT on Sunday afternoon 3/21, around 3:30pm, would you be able to meet up for drinkies - preferably brightly colored and with little umbrellas?

It seems that from time to time, certain threads or subjects crop up in this forum that are deserving of "special" mention. By special, I'm referring to certain innate qualities, namely: ingominy, infamy, or heresy. These threads or posts are almost guaranteed to set the board astir, to bring out the cheerleaders and malcontents alike, to spice up the CO Forum or send it perilously close to the depths of depravity. Such posts, and those of us who make them, deserve a special home for all the hard work put into making the CO Board a more colorful place. Accordingly, I propose that the CO Forum have a home for all such tangential discursions, where our more primal posting instincts may be satisfied (See also, Airliners.net).

Before you can ask: "The Penalty Box, what? :confused:, oh...," please allow me to touch lightly on the sort of fodder appropriate for this FT equivalent of a compost heap, (or our collective CO subconscious, if you will). Though this is intended to be a free-form thread for all manner of discursions and collegial banter (See e.g., The Delta Forum Lounge Thread), certain topics are especially appropriate to The Penalty Box. Posting regarding any of the following topics on the CO Forum should serve to place the poster on notice that he or she may be just the sort of individual this thread was intended to accommodate:

1. Discussion of any prospective CO/UA merger. Please note that discussion of any aspect of the imminent ConUniHound merger is especially encouraged here.

2. Discussion of the minute details of NW's Golden Share (you know who you are).

3. Speculation (unsubstantiated or otherwise) regarding CO's long-overdue overhaul of the BusinessFirst cabin.

4. WURS Syndrome (Wholly Unsubstantiated Route Speculation)

5. Audacious and Unmitigated Flatulence. See also, Stink Shield and TATL Sewage Rivers.

6. Any thread containing the words "EWR/Newark" and "Nightmare" in the title. In fact, any thread containing just the word "Nightmare" in the title.

7. Discussion of calzones, or the relative merits thereof (may they rest in peace).

8. Spurious accusations (and the odd substantiated one) regarding flagrant and abominable failures of the EUA system.

9. Drunken posting (how could I have forgotten. Thank you, J.Edward :) )

10. Keeping tally of the year's most intriguing "C"-word (that's "compensation") threads.

The list above is by no means intended to be exhaustive. Please feel free to add to the gravitas and overall substance of the CO Forum by making this thread your personal canvas. As with any thread on FT, the FT TOS would obviously apply. Lastly, please remember our motto: "Anything the DL Forum can do, we can do better." :D

I shall leave you all to it, then...

Sincerely,

Anglo Large Clawed Otter
