  • Evidently You Can't Fly Spirit Airlines In Booty Shorts Anymore, Woman Says Her Shorts Kept Her Off Flight

    The Spirit Airlines of the past is officially no more. In January, the airline updated its rules to include a crackdown on inappropriate passenger attire.Outrageously, to some, you can’t fly barefoot on the airline anymore. Nor can you be dressed in a manner that is deemed to be inappropriate.That means you can’t wear items such as see-through clothing or an outfit that exposes private parts. A tall order for some.

  • B-2 bomber pilots had toilet, microwave and a cooler for snacks on their 37-hour Fordow bombing raid

    The B-2 stealth bombers used to attack the Fordow nuclear enrichment plant are equipped with toilets, microwaves and usually a cooler for snacks to make life more comfortable for the pilots who were stuck in the cockpit for the 37-hour trip from Missouri to Iran and back. The fleet of advanced American bombers — originally designed to drop nuclear bombs on the Soviet Union — took off from the Whiteman Air Force Base outside Kansas City on Friday for an 18 hour ride across the world, refueling several times in mid-air, officials said. For such long trips to be bearable,...

    The US Is Moving Two B-2 Stealth Bombers Closer To China David Cenciotti, The AviationistJanuary 23, 2013, 2:22 PM In November 2012, the U.S. Air Forced announced a series of worldwide training deployments for its stealthy B-2 Spirit bombers. The “World Spirit Tour”, as the deployment was dubbed by Air Force Magazine, will bring the first two radar evading planes from the 509th Bomb Wing at Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, to the Pacific theater. Destination: Andersen Air Force Base. Strategically located 1,800 miles (about 2,900 km) to the east of China, Andersen has hosted a deployed strategic bomber force...

    Save the crop tops for Florida's beaches and keep your feet in your shoes as Spirit Airlines is cracking down on 'inadequate' clothing on its flights. On Wednesday, the company quietly updated its contract of carriage for passengers, which includes updating its dress code for passengers flying the budget airline. The new rule dictates that a guest 'shall not be permitted to board the aircraft' if they are 'barefoot or inadequately clothed.' Among the examples of inappropriate travel outfits include: see-through clothing, exposed breasts, buttocks, or other private parts; lewd, obscene, or offensive clothing and tattoos. The new regulation comes...

    Once again, the Biden Administration made a brilliant move. By disapproving the JetBlue/Spirit Airlines merger, consumers will suffer and jobs will be lost.Spirit met with creditors today to discuss the terms of a bankruptcy. If they go bankrupt (a virtual certainty now), the jobs at Spirit will be lost. Also, there will be less competition with one less airline out there; hence, airline ticket prices will go up.A merger was the only way Spirit could have survived. Thank you Biden Administration.

    As we approach the momentous November 5 elections, there are plenty of people who can offer a more astute political commentary than me, so I’ll defer to them right now. What I can do is help ignite a fresh spiritual fire in each of us, knowing that, as we burn bright, America will be changed. Revival in the church remains the only real hope of the nation. (If you are not a follower of Jesus, you may not find the rest of this article relevant. But you’re free, of course, to read on.)

    Spirit Airlines has apologized after it mistakenly put an unaccompanied child on the wrong flight during the holiday season travel rush.The child was supposed to fly from Philadelphia International Airport to Southwest Florida International Airport in Fort Myers on Thursday. But the minor was “incorrectly boarded” on a flight to Orlando, according to the airline.“The child was always under the care and supervision of a Spirit Team Member, and as soon as we discovered the error, we took immediate steps to communicate with the family and reconnect them,” Spirit said in a statement Saturday.“We take the safety and responsibility of...

    Tucker Carlson has warned that “evil” inter-dimensional demonic entities are influencing humanity in such a profound manner that the controlled environment where mankind exists can be compared to an “ant farm.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Answering a question about extraterrestrial’s, UFOs, and the spiritual war many are now finding themselves in, Carlson delved into what he believes is the true nature of these hidden entities. “They’re not aliens, they’ve always been here. I do think it’s spiritual,” declared Carlson on Timcast IRL. “There is good and evil that we are being acted upon at all times … You are subject to forces from...

    Faculty at a Massachusetts high school have canceled "USA Day" from its spirit week activities this year because they wanted to "avoid politics," local outlets reported this week. In a letter to the school community, Wellesley High School principal Jamie Chisum explained that school staff canceled the patriotic-themed day to avoid a topic that had become "politicized." "USA Day" was slated to be held on the last day of the high school’s festive week, allowing kids to dress up in their patriotic gear and celebrate America. The theme was replaced by "Fitness Friday," though students were still invited to wear...

    I was focused on the menu when the pub server approached our table. A cheery voice said, "Are we all ready to order?". This was a few nights ago. I looked up. She was young and bright-looking—maybe 23 or 24 . But the tattoo just below her neck revealed something more than cheeriness in her personality. Memento mori, it said. It doesn't translate neatly from Latin. An essentially literal rendition would be "remember dying" (or "death"). But a more accurate (if unavoidably wordy) way of conveying what an ancient Roman would feel and think upon hearing their famous saying is:...

    The Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) announced on Tuesday, 07 March 2023 that it had filed a lawsuit seeking to block JetBlue Airways' $3.8-billion purchase of Spirit Airlines. In a 43-page document, the DOJ alleged the merger would reduce competition among U.S. domestic air-carriers and drive up consumer air-fares. Specifically, the department argued the deal would adversely impact low-income and cost-conscious travelers who depend on budget airlines—like Spirit—to provide bargain air-fares. In their complaint, DOJ lawyers wrote: "If the acquisition is approved, JetBlue plans to abandon Spirit’s business model, remove seats from Spirit’s planes, and charge Spirit’s customers higher prices....

    The Kingdom of Heaven is not in the carnal pleasures of this world. In the proper ordering of my passions, may I find fulfillment in charity and divine beatitude (CCC 1769). We are made in the image and likeness of an infinite God. From our finite perspectives, can we fathom the depths of a soul? What are the limits of spirit? In our finite nature, can we grasp the expanse of infinity itself? No. However, we can feel universal longings within us for peace without end. Until our souls find their peace in God, we are restless. This restlessness is...

    The “Hermeneutic” of Correction and Rejection: Taking Vatican II Away from the Heretics“A certain number of important theological questions about which no agreement could be reached were left open by choosing formulations that could be interpreted differently by particular groups and theological tendencies at the Council.” (Karl Rahner and Herbert Vorgrimler, as quoted in Fr. Matthias Gaudron’s The Catechism of the Crisis in the Church) Those who have sought to destroy the Church for the past several decades have routinely used Vatican II and its “Spirit” to justify their anti-Catholic initiatives. All Traditional Catholics oppose these attacks on the Church,...

    It amazes me that Christians believe in the Bible, but most do not recognize spirit attachment as real. Removing attached spirits was a very common healing method for Jesus. In 1993 a 38 year old Emergency Room nurse came to me for pain management using hypnosis. I had just learned hypnosis and a mutual friend told her about me. She had a letter from her Dr. I requested stating that it was ok to use hypnosis as pain management, as pain is a symptom and blocking it may result in not detecting a serious illness like cancer. The pain in...
