Not a problem.  They used brown people to plug the hole as there are so many.  Maybe a cow in there too.  We have a growing Indian community in my area, I assume from H1B visas.  There are entire housing developments that are predominantly Indian.  Elizabeth Warren would be proud.

Great operational decision by the crew to continue on to a maintenance base capable of doing the repairs.  Most US airline pilots would not have been so considerate of the maintenance department or mindful of the additional cost involved in doing the repairs at a remote location.  Nope. American pilots are too worried about the damn passengers and preserving their own pilot certificates.     ;D

I think that is a different type of Indian.

My sister bought a nice house in a nice subdivision just north of Atlanta about 25 years ago.  The subdivision has seen a subsequent shift to predominately Indian, and they were concerned about property values.  They recently retired and sold their house.  They were amazed when the realtor recommended a listing price of almost double what they expected.  They were further amazed when the next day there was a bidding war going on and they got about $35k more than they listed for.

Then they moved to Panama City, just across the bay from Tyndall AFB, about a month before Michael hit them.  What goes around comes around. Or "Karma" or some such BS.

I’m suggesting that this is a damned funny meme for people who acknowledge the idiocy of Liz Warren. If not, I can’t help you.

I guess my humor didn’t have the laser like precision I wanted.
