  1. Where did this one come from?

     

    Am I the only one that hasn't seen one episode of this show? Nor did I know about it till a couple months ago when it came up in dinner conversation and was completely lost.

     

    I must have missed the Glee-mania boat...

  2. Right!

     

    It's amazing that this story (the crash, his marriage and the bimbos coming out of the woodwork) is headline news in the mainstream media.

     

    Agreed! I would like to think that there are far more important things going on in the country and around the world that would make better headlines.

     

    What I would like to see is what his wife did to him with the golf club. :)

  3. Thank you for the post!

     

    I have been fascinated by the Boeing Dreamliner since it's initial concept designs were released and it does look like a dream - very comfortable and something I hope to one day be able to take a ride on.

     

    I was a bit shocked that SO much of the aircraft was and is being produced outside of the country but then again, outsourcing production seems to be still very popular. With all things, I'm sure they will make the necessary adjustments and learn from this experience like most US Corporations have or will in the future.

     

    MsGuy-

     

    Boeing is a US corporation that has made a lot of products that have defended our national honor very well. William Boeing is someone who should be applauded vigorously, not only for his patriotism but for his business sense and his willingness to take a risk. Sound like an American businessman?

     

    However, they have made mistakes, not unlike any US corporation. One of those mistakes might have been to make fun of Airbus and their 380 fiasco. There is one US corporation that might make money with this aircraft and that is FEDEX. They will not have to put 500 passengers into this behemoth but only fill it with overnight letters or the like. The Memphis airport has already made improvements that will allow the 380 to operate here at the home of FEDEX. Only a few airports worldwide have done so and with good reason.

     

    I can only hope that Boeing will come to their senses, discontinue the foreign manufacture of parts to a very large degree and resume normal American production of superior aircraft.

     

    Best regards,
