Day to day I just wear a Casio Illuminator. For dress up days I wear a Sea-Gull, which I think is a quite classy, subtle instrument. Sea-Gull, leather band

And today. I am Grandfathered for the first time. Abby was born at 6:30. Healthy and happy.

From a wrestling magazine in the 60's, and I am doing this from memory. "Few who witnessed it will forget Bruno Sammartino picking up and throwing 400 pound Haystacks Calhoun out of the ring." Different time.

9-11. I left New York on a 767 the day prior, and was flying back from San Francisco when it happened. We had taken off at 6AM Pacific time. Started getting frantic messages from the company on the cockpit printer. I turned around and diverted back to San Francisco. I had flown AA 77, Dulles to LA, almost continuously for the two years prior and took a check captain job a few months earlier. I knew I would know the crew that hit the Pentagon, and I had worked with all of them. Just an atrocious day.

Also a 1000 vine vineyard, but not sure that counts in this thread.

Four raised beds, 5 x16 each. A 12 x 8 greenhouse to get things started.

Its always colder north and northwest, because air flows counterclockwise around a low. If you imagine a fan, placed sideways, and moving like all weather systems do in the Northern Hemisphere, which is west to east, you can easily see that preceding a low pressure system, which is what causes storms, the wind will be from the south and southeast, keeping temps warm, and providing moisture. Once the low passes, given the counterclockwise flow, the winds come from the northwest. Thus the colder temps after a storm. Take you index finger. Point at your monitor and move your index finger in a counterclockwise motion, going left to right. That's how it works.

Just follow the jet stream. In late March and April it really moves, sometimes many hundreds of miles in a week. It forms a boundary as the Canadian and Arctic try to warm up. North of it is cold, south is warm. Look at it today.http://www.intellicast.com/National/Wind/JetStream.aspx Strong low in the northern central portion of the country. Guess where the bad weather is?

Airline pilot, but 20 years flying long haul international trips that required rest breaks. A typical US to China trip would have you fly for three hours, break for three hours, and do that routine twice. Having done that for years, it has permanently altered my sleep schedule. I go to be early, (or until the Nats game gets out of hand), get up about 1AM, do my work, and go back about 4AM until 6. Unusual, but it works for me, and I have been unable to change it.

Sleep is one of the most important, managed items for me. In my career, I had a position where we had to take rest brakes to sleep. Generally, four hours on, three hours off, and a comfortable sleeping environment was created, so you had to adjust to being able to fall asleep quickly and wake up quickly. My body became so adjusted to that, that in retirement, it keeps that same schedule. I never sleep more than six hours. Usually four and then I'm awake. I get the required amount over time, but I have to manage it. In addition, that career made me particularly sensitive to unusual noise, so anytime anything unusual sounds, even if it's something as simple as the heating system coming on, I wake up.

Funny thing about wearing a uniform of a company. In the airline business, pilots are not allowed to purchase alcohol or be in a bar in uniform, nor is any employee in uniform allowed to wear anything political. Seattle is completely OK with not interviewing him in this instance.

Not nearly what they used to be before they became a financial management company, and expanded to include basically anybody. Many of us core clients have left. Sickening to me how they play up the patriot theme. Way over the top.

That isn't the hard part. The hard part is that the gov makes a fortune off of airline taxes. Airlines are taxed higher than alcohol or tobacco. 3.7 billion in 1990--->23 billion in 2016. Tax these trains at the same level and watch what happens.

This kind of thing happens frequently, but doesn't get attention because it isn't publicized. The agents would tell the captain. That's how he gets notified. Departing on time is sometimes a judgement with a lot of variables, and sometimes not. If the captain knows the situation, there are a lot of ways to game the system to get someone on board who has at least checked in at the airport. On the other hand, sometimes its just not possible.

Far down the list in many ways. One of the few companies whose commercials annoy me.

I looked. Couldn't find it. Still, if it was a mistake, that's quite a cheap shot on your part. The man blunders all the time. No value in making stuff up about him.

I can't find anything that validates your claim.

Is there a source for this? Yes or no?

What is the source of this?

Violates the first law of commonsensodynamics. If something is clearly broke, you fix it before you grow it.

Too black widow-ish. Chance of male survival post boinkage? Zero.

With this post, I've lost interest.

Really? Last week I was looking at the indulgence thing as part of a reply. I came across an article naming what indulgences are available during Holy Week. Bizarre. And as I've mentioned, you've got the veneration of saints, Mary, the rosary, and the continuing claim of her life long virginity, not supported, papal nonsense and a host of other things the Roman church has invented.
