"Scroll" this...!!!!!..."HAT" ENVY...!!!!!....'Vintage...Russian.....♥ 'ASS BACKWARD'......2 BP employees indicted on manslaughter...today..!!!...Pilot tip of the week #101.....WTF......!!!!We the 'Spoilers"...•"Air middle Earth" inflight......♠.."Mini post"........♠ Just a couple of "Keepers"..........."Slides from the last 24 hours..........♠




HEY......."SCROLL POLICE(Dave and gg).....!!!!!!....
Please 'click' the "Kiss My Azz" button..........
;)))))...love ya

DREAM ON LITTLE GIRL........!!!!!........
You have exactely one "Big bang" second
 to hand that Captain's hat over.........
and I started counting 'Yesterday'..........
Grrrrrrrrrrrr.


I Love Love this 'Vintage'.........Ad...♥

HOLY MOLY..............!!!!
SAY IT AIN'T SO..........
OH... THE 'HORROR'.....
This is a "SAD" day indeed......
jeezus.!!!!!!!
;o




 BP has agreed to pay an extra $4.5 "BILLION" in fines on top of the "TENS OF BILLIONS" it is already paying out for the Gulf oil spill,
 while two employees were indicted......on 'manslaughter' today....♦

When BP was  dealing with the spill....and especially here in Houma.........,.......the money was being handed out here.......like 'Candy'..........!!!!!!......Most of the 'Spill operations'........were out of Houma.....they were renting anyone with a boat.......didn't matter how big or small.......and it didn't matter.....how much.....!!
It's been 2 1/2 yrs.....since the BP Explosion......!!!!
It happend just south of my town(Houma)......
This picture, was taken just before it leaned on its side........
and sunk to the floor of the Gulf of Mexico.....
over 500 feet deep.....!!!
They had the 'underwater rovers.......operated by
 "Skilled experts.....24/7...


Those orange boats had the 360 degree pods(propellars)....to keep the rovers "Exactly" in the same spot on the Gulf floor....within a "knats Ass"..!!!!!!!!

.........I watched the "Live"...online streams.......for days and nights......and I'm not even joking......!!!

There, on the ocean floor while they tried everything to stop the gushing oil........!!!!!!
Example:......when the rover arms, were using a saw.....to try and make a "Clean cut"....of the busted pipe,.......
and every now and then........the rover would accidently drop the saw blade.....or a tool......and it would take "Forever"........to get everything back up and sawing....or what have you.........!!!.......OMG....,
watching the oil pouring out.....with such a force, and there nothing anyone could do about it..........!!!..
It was Horrible.....!!!.......there were days on end, where you walk outside......, the air smelled just like Kerosene.....like gas.......like a refinery.....and you'd get such, a headache.....because the smell was so strong.........!!!!!!!!
..All of us here in Houma....fell into such a deep "depression"...
(esspecially because BP has a coperate office here)!!!!!!.......
and there were reminders.....with all the goverment....and BP people.........figuring "Strategies"...of what to do next...and not an 'effin' clue as to what to do......NEXT.......!!!...........it was our own......"Ground zero"......for this tragedy!!!.....

It did not matter where you went............in the grocery restaurants......or anywhere.............
 not one single happy face was to be found...........for months!!!!!!...........knowing "life as we knew it".........was over.......and with no idea what the future held..........
while, the oil.......washed ashore......every single day.......OMG.......
It was such an "Awful"........time.....here!!!!!!!!!

Now 2 1/2 years removed.......it's such a "Wonder",
 how
"Mother Nature".......can heal herself........Oh no, the effects will take forever.......to 'right' themselves.............but.......
 'Houma' is back and Thriving.......all the Gulf Coast.....as well...,
in many ways........better than before...............
and I am so "Grateful"......
to her:
"Bravo"...
(Mother Nature).....




Ok ........Your homework assignment, is to listen to the 'pilot tip #101.......below...its only a minute long......and besides......there may be a 'Pop Quiz".......and if you fail..........GG......will be dishing out the punishment..........!!Trust me...........you don't want to be in that line.....LOL......

NEW ORLEANS (AP)
Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints are having fun again. They hope it's a sign of things to come in the second half of the season.
 


Michael Vick kept picking himself up off the Superdome turf, the recipient of an awful beating.
The Philadelphia Eagles are down — and nearly out.
Brees threw two touchdown passes, extending his NFL record streak to 51 games, and Patrick Robinson returned an interception 99 yards for a score to lead the Saints past the reeling Eagles 28-13 Monday night.
New Orleans (3-5), which bounced back from a dismal 34-14 loss at Denver, also got a 22-yard touchdown run from


"Monday Night Football"....."Jitters".........
 I am a
 Nervous wreck...........TONITE........!!!!!!!!!

 New Orleans "Saints" against

 Philadelphia "Eagles"..!!!........OMG...........The Saints have laid 5 Rotten eggs this season.......!!!!!!!!

tomorrow night......for the  
United States......of America......!!!!.

This Morning.......
What an "Epic".......weather map.....
"Unfortunately"for all the wrong reasons..........
Thanx Cappy......!!!!


I wish 'Godzilla'............would come and "Divert".........
this Storm.........
not to make a joke..........
this is NO joking matter........
and is said,
 only  to make a bold "Point"...........♠
My Friend Bonnie sent this to me...........today.......of the Storm........moving in..........taken in NJ......
Thanks Bonnie......♠ 
Seems there are some 'Fake' pictures going around......
I "Despise" that Crap........!!!!....
This picture is authentic.....to the best of my ability.............!!!!

This picture off the "live" web cam "link" I posted here......earlier....!!!of a crane dangling.......on the 65th floor downtown..........NY..........Pretty scary!



Ritchie sent me this "info"...........and the "Pittsburgh"  airport pic below.........on what they are now describing  "Sandy"......
as a
 "Post Tropical Cyclone"....on the Weather channel a few minutes ago............
 His text below...........
So Hurricane Sandy has completely shut down all flights on the east coast. I was supposed to fly YYZ-DCA today, returning home tomorrow. Wrong! I'm told the following airports are now shut down completely and not expected to resume flight operations till Wednesday at the earliest:

• Philadelphia (PHL)
• Washington, D.C. Reagan National Airport (DCA)
• Washington, D.C. Dulles (IAD)
• New York LaGuardia (LGA)
• New York JFK
• Newark (EWR)
• Albany (ALB)
• Binghamton (BGM)
• Elmira (ELM)
• Islip (ISP)
• Ithaca (ITH)
• Newburgh (SWF)
• Syracuse (SYR)
• White Plains (HPN)
• Boston (BOS)
• Bangor (BGR)
• Burlington (BTV)
• Hartford (BDL)
• New Haven (HVN)
• Harrisburg (MDT)
• Williamsport (IPT)
• Providence, R.I. (PVD)
Craig R.




Pretty well all the airlines have moved their planes from these airports to other locations, in order to protect them from damage. I've attached two pictures of Pittsburgh, taken from the Pittsburgh Airport Facebook page. It looks like the good old days when US Airways used it as a hub.

Hardly the first time I've been stranded by weather. But this time, I'm stranded at home. How nice is that..........I think it is very nice.........!!!!
 
Thanks again Ritchie...........


As Cappy described yesterday, when he sent me this pic of the flight he was scheduled to fly to into PHL....and was cancelled ♠

Below is a  continues......."Live Cam".......over downtown New York..............
I fear at what may lie ahead............!!!
Remembering "Hurricane Isaac" that made landfall,  here in New Orleans and S.Louisiana......almost 2 months ago.......!!!!Its the knowledge that much of our life.........will, no longer be the same.........and the Fear of the "Unknown"......is terrifying....!!!!
I am praying to God......that this turns out  to be an 'Over Exaggerating on my part.......!!!!!





Our Hearts are very "Heavy"............


MissTWA and all her friends here........
Our "Hearts" and "Prayers"...............
go out to all those who are, and will be affected by "Sandy"......!!!!....
I'm "Worried" sick......!!!I just pulled these 2 pictures of JFK........and surrounding airports......and no Planes anywhere........for such a Wide area of  the country.......This is just "Terrifying" to me........!!!

Plus going to "Live" ATC......at JFK.......
there is the most "Eerie" Silence.......
Lord, .....PLEASE....
watch over those who live in the path.....!!!!





Please see below for the "Question"............



Ok......
this ATC srip.........off Captain Vector's
(View from the tower).........blog.....
He....
posed this

"Question".... below.......


"I saw...... this strip yesterday, and happened to notice something interesting." Any guesses?

I have NO idea.....maybe one of my "Aviation" buddies, would have a clue here........!!!!!
 



OK.........."Saints"...............WTF..........

Yep..........my "Saints".............
Sucked........Rotten Eggs last night......!!!!
and Roger Goodell,(commisioner of the NFL) share's some of the responisbility..........!!!
Come Feburary when he HAS to come to New Orleans for the Superbowl,.........let me put it this way, he should opt out for a tour of duty in Afghanistan, where he'll be "Safer"......
