GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) — Officials say a U.S. team is expected soon in the South American nation of Guyana to probe the crash of a Boeing 737 jetliner that all 163 people aboard survived.
Authorities so far have given little idea about the cause of Saturday's crash. The Caribbean Airlines plane ran off the end of a runway at Guyana's main airport and broke in two. About 30 people had to be treated at a local hospital, including the pilot.
The airline is largely owned by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and its prime minister has visited the crash site. Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she is worried that the accident will hurt tourism to the Caribbean, a region that depends heavily on the industry. [Reply]

They kind of do. The conversation shifts and moves away from topics and replying to old posts disrupts the natural flow of things. It's like building a dam and rerouting a river. [Reply]

It would be hilarious seeing Frankie react to this thread after he was given a shred of intellect for 15 minutes. Frankie's world is sure a nice place for ol' Frankie. [Reply]

Let me chew it up good for you so you can swallow it once and for all. When I have NEVER EVER started my CP relationship with ANY poster with disrespect but I have not been treated the same by some, and when this kind of shit started exactly when I first declared on this BB where I was born, it does not take a genius to figure out the hidden agenda in some of these posters.
Like I said, I have seen enough ducks to know how they look, walk, and swim.
I'm not angry about it. I'm just realistic. THERE ARE BIGOTS IN EVERY COUNTRY AND CULTURE. Some just deny that they are bigots and can't stand being called out on it. [Reply]

I'll just say this, your mathcing of their stubborn stamina is probably causing you more pains in the ass than not replying at all. It's a message board man.
To be beaten any more severely, you'd have to be buried up to your neck and have 200 villagers hurl softball sized stones at your cranium until it looked like an old melon stepped on by a cow.
