    + purplekow got a reaction from MsGuy in Two Down, One To Go   
    Though they may not be physically here, the ones we love are always with us. Today, I started back to work on the one year anniversary of the cardiac event that left me unemployed and physically drained. Though the PS weekend had revitalized my spirits I still had concerns about my ability to do the job. I felt that my skills had faded, my mental faculties had dulled and my physical endurance was not what it needed to be. On my way out the door, I could not find my work ID badge, identifying me as a physician. I searched my home and my car and could not find it and I worked it up in my head that this was a sign that I was not ready to do the job. After all, without the badge, who would known me, what would vouch for my credentials. The hour grew late and a decision had to made, go without the credential or not go at all. I opted to go.
    When I arrived at work, just as I removed the car key, a picture of my wife which I keep in the car, fell from the visor. I went to pick it up and it had landed right on the credential. I swear I had looked everywhere in the car, and yet there it was. I actually started to weep in the car, I am not sure why, but I can tell you I felt loved and reassured and ready to face the day. I went in and did a fair job. Not bad for the first day. I came home exhausted. Tomorrow will be better.
    BBaller, your wife is right there with you, I am sure you know it. I am sure you feel it. I am sure when you are down, memories help supply a sense of peace and contentment with just a tinge of melancholy. So you did do it, both of you. You have been blessed.

    As to living alone, you will hate it. And love it. When they return, you will find yourself relieved and also wondering how you ever lived in such a chaotic world. Best of luck to all four of you guys. And was it only your son eyeing the midshipmen?

    As far as the United event is concerned, United was opting to fly its employees instead of the paying customer. It was not a matter of being overbooked. They were quite willing to delay that flight for hours and did so, when a car ride for the employees would have taken only slightly longer than the plane flight plus the delay. A bit of common sense and some outside the box thinking may have avoided the entire incident. United decided to dig its heels in, as did Dr. Dao. Dr. Dao was dragged through the plane and United was dragged through the mud. In the end, United won the battle and lost the war.

    Of course this is in bad taste. Hard to figure which is worse, the posting or the fact that I scrolled through the whole thing hoping to find a really hot Jesus. Thing about viewing things done in bad taste, one has the ability to leave and not return to that subject. So, in the end, if one views something which offends, one should move on.
    This is not a site which is likely to find impressionable viewers incapable of protecting themselves and therefore in need of supervision.

    They could have hired a limo to drive them It is a four to five hour drive. The flight was delayed two hours and it is an hour flight so it would not have been that big a time difference. Since it was a crew thing, United should have respected their passengers and inconvenienced their employees, not the other way around.
     
    Next United flight to Louisville was the next day.

    Being unwillingly removed from a plane for no reason other than the commuting concerns of the airline is ridiculous. It would have been one thing if the flight had not boarded, but once the flight is boarded, the airline should have respected the passengers and worked out something else for their staffing issue. At least he was not wearing yoga pants, but perhaps if he were, he would never have made it onto the plane.

    How is it that Tristan Baldwin is in every one of these threads. You name a position, he has been in it. You name and outfit, he has worn it. You highlight a body part and his part is always highlightable. That is him in #45 by the way.
    So I offer out a challenge to the picture poster among us. Find a category in which a photo of Tristan cannot be found.
