  1. Southwest and American use it. Another good reason to avoid American. I thought Delta used them, but there is a 787-8 [not MAX] that they fly.
  2. Do we have any pilots here? My four and a hlaf hours of flight time doesn't count.
  3. It's difficult. IIRC, You have to get the lift back, which means going down for a spell. THis is hard if you are too low to begin with. Sorry, Vic, you know that’s not my field.
  4. My med school graduation was a week after this. My mother was flying out of O’Hare. Her plane was an L-1011. She got onboard and ordered two martinis.
  5. Analysis shows that the 737-8 MAX needed bigger engines, which should have had landing gear height increased or other solutions. Rather, the re-programmed the flight computer to adjust the nose (known as the angle of attack) to compensate … can’t remember if it goes nose-up, and stalls, or nose down into the trite “ nose dive”. A simple solution is to train pilots to take off and land manually. I had to call Delta last night, as I am in a 737-8 this month. They told me that they don’t use the MAX version. Also, American hasn’t grounded theirs … yet. It’s interesting that it’s the more recently delivered planes that have this problem. I think Boeing needs to reprogram them, or disable autopilot intake off and landing. It can be done now, but it probably takes more tine than it does for the flight yo become unstable and crash. After the 787 battery screw up (remember that?), Boeing needs to take a really, really hard look at its engineering staff. And I have a nephew who designed the glass cockpit for the 777.
  6. De gusto us non est disputandum.
  7. How was Gabriel Cross? That little twunk has been my idea of perfect for quite a while.
  8. I was in A&E in Sydney with a broken nose. They temporarily misplaced my passport. We went through everything—dirty linen, the bay I’d been in—no passport. I wanted to leave, and said “Thank you” to the Nurse. She said “No worries!” I was in a foreign country on a Saturday night, leaving Monday at 08h45 to New Zealand - No Worries? Grrrrrrrrr ………
  9. Reminds me of Mr. Hankey, the Xmas [sic] poo
  10. The semi-private photos show an average ass but a lovely, full,inviting erection. He’s approaching Twunkdom and if he bothered to eat right and exercise, he’d achieve Hunkdom. His activity list is woefully short, however. Perhaps he is more into massage?
  11. The Department of Alchemy is on the second floor of Building 4 or 6. They moved it.
  12. If you want to see The Institution, a walk around MIT is fun. To think of all the progress that has been made in one stodgy, century- old building … the Chapel is amazing.
  13. Saw him twice. BIG cuddler. BIG muscles -- particularly his arms. Solid chest. For a while I felt like I was a car mechanic. I was criticized for wanting full open mouth kissing ... he dry kisses with a little tongue, and told me other guys like that, too.
  14. I’m currently visiting in Chicago, saw this ad, ad decided to contact Daniel. I actually contacted him a week before my arrival, And we agreed to be in contact once I got here. I have to leave a review. This man is solid rock from head to toe. Engaging, verbal, and tactile. PM me for some caveats that I’m going to talk to him about, but SEE HIM!
  15. He’s yummy like a spicy appetizer!
  16. I'm afraid I would offend my cleaning lady.
  17. He looks like he has a YUGE personality.
  18. Why do you think it fake? Lihue is on Kauai, and I sincerely doubt he get much business. Kind of a down-on-it’s-luck kind of place, but pretty.
  19. Today's title article is about Ambrose Greenwood, a member of the Gunpowder Plot, of which Guy Fawkes was a major instigator. WIKIPEDIA 31 January 2019
  20. Where is the [plus or minus] key on a PC or in the iOs? It's not on my iPad.
  21. And thank goodness ... sometimes they do.
  22. I was in Seattle in February a few years ago. I asked if anyone had any suggestions. Someone told me Mike Gaite, who I’d neve seen or heard of. I contacted him and he said he wasn’t there. A year later, I got a call from him, telling me he was in Boston, and was I still interested? I was. We met. He’s an amazing man.
  23. I have some mobility problems, and I migh t have been on crutches at the time. I was at the local Bookstore during Christmas Shopping season. Someone with Cerebral Palsy was also there. It was a double door, vestibule arrangement. I stopped and held the outer door while several people went through. He similarly held the inner doo r. I then held the outer door for him to leave. He said: “Goddamn gimps, they just get in the way,” We both then laughed heartily. G
  24. This is exactly what my investment guy tells me. Diversify, diversify, diversify!!!
  25. I used to stare at lecturers in college. One even took his cue from me, as to how the class (of 80 or so) was comprehending the material. No wonder I understand Quantum Mrchaics so well.
