They told me to call once I get home about refunding difference in price for downgrade
They did this to me last year on a Delta flight. They seem to have a template for this. They didn't do squat the first couple of calls and then said they would "investigate". I continued to call back and bug them on a regular schedule and they finally gave me some miles. It seemed to me they were trying to wear me down (which they did) or really hoping I would give up and go away.

Funny part is those basement quarters look exactly like what I would expect in a governmental / quasi-governmental (the Vatican / Catholic Church) building.
It's like they spend extra for that boring institutional look.
NOLA attorney charged with killing federal witness
Posted by jbgleason on 4/28/25 at 2:05 pm
This has been going on a while. This is from the car crash insurance fraud case.
I think some of the OT Barristers know or know of this guy.

Federal prosecutors have filed fresh murder charges against a disbarred New Orleans attorney at the center of a sprawling vehicle-wrecking scheme, accusing him of orchestrating the death of a key federal witness who was gunned down on his mother's doorstep three years ago.
Sean Alfortish, 57, had already faced wire fraud charges under an indictment filed last year, alleging that he and a group of associates staged vehicle wrecks with big rig trucks for large insurance payouts.
quote:
The new charges filed Friday in the New Orleans-based U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana accuse Alfortish and an alleged associate, Leon "Chunky" Parker, of plotting to kill Cornelius Garrison, a veteran "slammer" who staged those crashes. Garrison allegedly told the FBI before his death that he would funnel his passengers to a group of New Orleans attorneys, including Alfortish, to represent them in bogus lawsuits.
In a brief statement, Alfortish's attorney, Shaun Clarke, called the indictment "unexpected."
"Sean is not guilty and we are preparing his defense," Clarke said.

Isn't there a bill eliminating state income tax on NIL recipients?
There better not be. I am pissed enough they ruined college athletics and turned it into NFL Lite. Taking away taxes on these pro athletes is one step too far IMO. If they want to be Big Boys, they can pay taxes like the rest of us.

Check the CNN front page right now. They have a video of the raid on that Colorado night club. They blur the face of every single illegal immigrant but leave the faces of all the federal agents clear.
Go to video of any "right wing" event and there isn't a blurred face in sight.
They aren't even being subtle.

Yet study after study finds that blacks are the least likely
Facts and studies will get you no where when this is being discussed.
FWIW, my buddy went to work for a period as a bartender at Fleming's. High end clientele (relatively speaking) and a higher than normal percentage of black customers. I asked if what people say is true or if it was Urban Myth. He said 100% true. I was shocked. Especially with a more affluent clientele.

re: Clean Energy SCAM (go figure)

I think “white collar” criminals should be treated the same as a guy that robs someone with a gun. But that doesn’t alleviate the responsibility borne by the investors. When they guarantee you 10% year over year, it’s a scam.
Just watched a documentary on Madoff. The guy who blew the whistle said he knew it was a scam FIVE MINUTES INTO looking at the books. But it took him an hour of math to conclusively show the scam. Another clue, not a single major fund invested. They all knew. When the investment is a “secret” or “hasn’t been discovered yet, get in now!” or “I normally wouldn’t take your investment but I will make an exception” its a scam.

Societal order depends on consequences for bad acts and if the justice system refuses to do its part, then the old fashioned way will have to suffice.
There is some real truth here. We need law and order. You can’t be shooting people down in the street for disrespect. But the days when insulting someone or putting your hands on them brought a punch to the face need to come back.

The only people I ever see with them are street thugs.
There is an old saying... Everything before "BUT" is worthless.
Let's try this: "I'm all about gun rights, but I really wish they'd ban whatever firearms Shexter owns. He says radical things on a fascist website called TigerDroppings and therefore shouldn't own firearms."
See how that sounds? There is a reason the 2nd Amendment says "shall not be infringed".

My father’s mother was a hoarder. I was very young and only met her a couple of times. I was a small child but I remember her living room was so piled with newspapers and magazines that it had little walkways through the room. Everything else was piled head high.
I wonder what the psychology of that is?

Two shooters!
Actual single shooter was wearing a dark gray shirt.
Also, the sounds of gunshots echo in an urban environment. It was coming from building A! I heard shots at building B! Two shooters! Nope. Echoing gunshots from a single location.
I get downvoted and then it turns out to be a single shooter. This always happens. Multiple shooter school shootings are incredibly rare. Columbine and that one in MS are the only two I can think of right now.
