Being white and rich does matter. Anyone who says otherwise is not being honest. But because of political correctness, most media to not want to mention that she is white, and being treated differently. It works in reverse too.

With that said; I thought he said Houston is easily one of the ugliest cities??? That's what led to the rant about Houston women. I don't remember though.

That's a test I use because EVERY city is going to have beautiful women if you look in the nightclubs, tourist areas, and high fashion places. In Miami, where I lived my entire life until last year, I always asserted on these forums that Miami has almost no beautiful women. Others claimed the opposite. They were mostly talking about Miami Beach and other tourist areas. I was talking about the 'real' Miami that everyday people encounter. So, I made up the Wal-Mart and Costco test. If you can find beautiful women there then you've really got something. Houston has many, many beautiful women, even using the Wal-Mart and Costco test (more Costco than Wal-Mart actually).
I agree with you about miami...I lived down that way for two and half years, and I hate to say it, but there are a bunch of uncomfortable looking, horribly shaped women all over Miami....television, movies and entertainment shows have everyone tricked that Miami is just an oasis of beautiful, sexy, exotic and fine women, but its quite the opposite....Houston women blow them away, plain and simple...

If our classless president & vice president can slip up on a mic in front of millions & get away with it, why not a pilot with say 100 people on board the plane?
Yea. Our prior classless prez and VP (W and Bunker Dick) seemed plenty pleased with things down Texas way.

They've now released the identity of the pilot. Wouldn't want to be in his shoes. Probably can't go anywhere now without being jeered.

I guess "bags fly free" refers to their flight attendants.

I've flown out of Hobby numerous times and always on SW. I think the pilot was telling the truth and it hurts sometimes.

Really, you haven't heard the complaints bout this? You live under a rock?
