@DICKS @espn @AdamSchefter Came down to the wire, oh wait, refs missed the wire interference.

@Predxican98 It was a great game. We watched it with the bartenders and associates at the resort we were at in Cancun!

@SouthwestAir I have sent a private message on X and a DM on Facebook, and neither have been answered (sent 3 - 4 days ago). Do you guys not monitor those channels any longer? I asked a simple question about travel we have tomorrow, June 27. Not great customer service.

@Predxican98 @royhutchinsbbq How was it? Heather and I will in DFW for a couple of days in a few weeks. Trying to narrow down where to go for at least one good BBQ meal.

@emma_lingan It still wouldn't be as far (or bad) as the Chicago Bears announcement, lol!

@AlexDaugherty1 Suit up @Skillsy75 and @cmace30!

@PredsNHL "Refs you suck!" Wow, what a horribly called game that led directly to the losing margin!

Anybody who is mad about this video has a dump in their pants. Talking to the President after winning Gold is as American as Apple Pie. Hockey twitter stays the softest group of crybabies who ever existed.

@SouthwestAir @NicoleOutaCntrl I’m waiting for Southwest to put a barcode on seats so you can scan to pay for the empty seat if you want to move. I bet the “weight balance” is just fine when the seat is paid for!

[Richard Rawling @ricrawling]

@SouthwestAir @TomiLahren From what I have read, it's the Flight Attendants using the first 2-3 rows of bins because they are fearful of items being stolen if they are in the last few rows of the plane. Ridiculous!

[Richard Rawling @ricrawling]

@SouthwestAir @MichaelELeBlanc SWA needs to stop reviewing it and solve the problem. It's been like this since day 1 of the new seating policy.

[Richard Rawling @ricrawling]

@NormanConnors @SouthwestAir Since SWA is marketing these extra leg room seats as basically economy comfort, they should specify that only the front rows can use the front bins like on other airlines.

[Richard Rawling @ricrawling]

@SouthwestAir based on everything I have read, it's now the overhead bin scramble.

[Richard Rawling @ricrawling]

@ViragConsulting @Hertz I think every renter should demand to have the car run thru the scanner on the way out and make hertz associates document in detail all damages prior to rental. Imagine the paperwork and man power that would take.

🚨Statement Release from Austin Firefighters Association. ARE YOU ANGRY YET? 🚨

It brings the Austin Firefighters no pleasure to report to the community that the Austin Fire Chief DENIED the deployment of Austin firefighters to Kerrville until very late into the event (so today!), with the exception of only 3 AFD rescue swimmers who helped staff helo teams (which still were NOT deployed until the afternoon of the 4th).

The Austin Firefighter Special Operations teams are specially trained for Hill Country swift water rescue and are some of the best, if not the best, swift water boat teams in the State of Texas.

It is absolutely outrageous that the Austin Fire Chief, Joel G. Baker, would not allow highly trained firefighters from Austin to respond to Kerrville. Because of this egregious dereliction of duty, LIVES WERE VERY LIKELY LOST BECAUSE OF CHIEF BAKER’S DECISION!

Deployment orders came down from the State of Texas on July 2. We would've been pre-deployed before the waters even began to rise!

It is unforgivable that a fire chief would NOT allow his firefighters to answer the call to save lives.
Why would Fire Chief Joel G. Baker do this, you may ask? It was a misguided attempt to save money. I say “misguided” because the fire department is fully reimbursed by the state to deploy. I explained the reimbursement process to Chief Baker last week, and he failed to understand this very simple concept.

We are disgusted with our fire chief. He needs to be held accountable and fired for his disgraceful dereliction of duty.
The Austin Firefighters are starting a vote of no confidence on Tuesday on the fire chief.

As disgusted as we are at our Austin Fire Department leadership, the Austin Firefighters Association made a decision to not air our dirty laundry while victims and bodies were still being recovered. But it's now July 7, and it's time that we hold accountable our disgraced fire chief, AND anybody else in his leadership circle who are responsible for this horrendous act.

The Austin Firefighters commit to being transparent to the community about this process to remove our fire chief and hold all of those accountable who were part of this atrocity.

The firefighters hope we have your support, because it's going to get ugly.

I can't possibly express to you how outraged and sickened the firefighters are that we were not allowed to do the job—the job that we have trained so hard and long to do—during the historic floods that just occurred in Kerrville. We could've made a difference, and we were forced to stand down and lives were lost.

The community deserves a fire chief who cares about the community as much as our firefighters, and that is simply not the case. Joel G. Baker must go!

Please support your Austin Firefighters by sharing this post.

@AlexDaugherty1 @mjmorneault You can fly AA and Finair with AA miles for 22.5K miles each way into Oulu with very little cash for taxes, no car needed.
