Republic buys Midwest today?

Yesterday Frontier. I wonder what they are up to.

And for those of who mentioned they may be concerned about losing the DL contract, they also do service for UA and remember, they own CHQ as well.

She did this to him, IMO, and he held on as long as he could. She is evil and deserves to be treated as such.

Not to dredge up the Jon & Kate nonsense again, but I will.:D Evil? Come on. Jon wants to have a go out and play and he's angry he got caught. He got married at 22(?) and had 8 kids by the time he was 27. How is that Kate's fault? He decided to work at home to be with the kids and then resented that he was home with the kids. HE got a lot out of that show and is now being hypocritical in craving for anonymity all the while granting interview after interview. He missed his second childhood and is reliving it now. He's "excited" about what's ahead?:rolleyes: I'm not saying Kate is blameless, but Jon is a mope and needed a kick in the behind sometimes.

Interesting factoid from the WSJ:

Quote:

Midwest Airlines from TPG Capital for $31 million, just 17 months after the private-equity giant paid $452 million.

3 scenarios may play out:

They recognize both are severely undervalued and maintain the operations and then sell them off in a stronger market and pocket the difference.
They're creating a new airline (just what the :rolleyes: ordered).
They are bat $h!t crazy.

Popcorn, table 1. :D

Those of us in the Festering Pit are merely jealous that Cleveburgh managed to catch the Cuyahoga on fire. Kinda killed off our hopes of cornering the market on totally sucking at existence.

LOL. Just wait until petroleum becomes obsolete, just like heavy manufacturing in the U.S. beginning in the 1970's. The entire city of Houston probably will burn or will be allowed to flood.
