I was on a flight in the early 90's that lost Hydraulics , could not get the flaps down, no reverse thrusters. I believe the pilot had the Ram Air Turbine extended also for power. It took us 45 minutes to go around , dump fuel and line up on the runway into Cleavland airport. There were a couple people crying /…

Well, it's too bad you were't flying the plane to show how a real pro would do it.

how is someone trading a seat for another that is empty costing the airline anything?

Yesterday, Greenpeace apologized for the stunt, saying it was sorry if the protest at the historical site on Monday caused an "moral offense" to the Peruvian people.

Right, because "Non Craft Beer Guy" has a mythical top 15 American breweries list floating in his head.

Hippie is just another word like liberal or progressive that right wing turds have turned in to the new nigger.

you know what I find offensive? 18 year olds getting shot and prosecutors intentionally throwing the case

I'm so confused. :(

Touche.

Do you read the news?

Now we get to hear from all the Steampunk-Craft-Candy-Millennial-Hipsters in Brooklyn/Portland. Let me guess, Justin's goes great with a PBR, fixed-gear bikes and moustache wax?
