#1 All caps like that just screams not credible.

What is it about crazies that makes them label themselves this way? They'd have a lot more impact without the capitals.

#5 the pilot suicide is somewhat inconsistent with the fire in the cabin. Posted by: lord garth

If the suicide candidate leaves the cockit to go to the loo before landing, starts a small fire, returns to the cockpit. Fire alarm goes off, non-suicide pilot leaves to investigate.....

Without the flight recorder, no one knows. With the flight recorder, we may still not know.

#10 Joe is a perfect example of someone I might read if his text were not unreadable.

Still no word on what a "homosexual looking" pilot has to do with anything. Anyone want to try?

Now that you've slandered Joe, please go ahead and share your wisdom regarding the homosexual issue.

#16 That would not appeal to either gay or lesbian, as Bruce Jenner found to his sorrow, Skidmark. It is, however, a demonstration that wishing does not provide good taste; that outfit appears designed to make the wearer look astoundingly unattractive in every possible way to every potential viewer.

#17 Speaking of CAPS any word on JOE?

A very quick search gives the most recent post I could find as April 6, 2016. Here.

Perhaps he is busy with local politics. The Republican caucus was March 12th, the Democratic caucus was May 7th.

It's not unreadable. He just has an accent.
