    I'm going to be really pedantic here for a second. He said "with anyone being considered for the job." That wording is really odd to me. Technically if Chip already signed the papers he is no longer "being considered."

    In 1981, Kelly graduated from Central. "Some people walk to work," his yearbook quote reads, "others take their lunch." His choice revealed an aversion to the expected, as most of his classmates selected pseudo-meaningful motivational quotes culled from pop music and anthologies of wisdom. And as anyone who has heard a version of the intentionally absurd expression knows, walking to work and taking your lunch are not mutually exclusive. Kelly was clever enough to know that your choices need not confine you, but whatever they were, hard work and the ability to figure things out were part of the equation.

    It’s unclear whether his classmates got the joke. Even as a teenager, Kelly was inscrutable. However, just as his opponents have since learned, he probably didn’t mind that his signals were difficult to decode.

    Ohh, I thought that was his college yearbook for some reason. Yeah, he does look pretty young in that pic. Makes more sense.

    The Germans had both Fokkers and Messerschmidts (almost took out the second m and made a joke out of it) Did the Japanese have another plane besides the Zero too??
    Oh crap here goes.. First post: The Germans had both Fokkers and Messerschidts. That's why they lost the war!! Yeah, I know it's a lousy joke but WTH., Couldn't resist it!!

    This may have been posted already but all the flightaware links are no good now. One no longer works, the other one I sent a friend earlier is now showing a flight that landed 2 weeks ago.

    Guess the flight to Bristol can be put to rest?

    You have guys reporting stuff that happened FRIDAY (i.e. SEC cleared the hire, etc.) today. I'll reiterate that the media knows not a damn thing, lol.

    Even though Nick and Spivey were a bit late, even they got the deal being in place piece down fairly quick in relation to when it was done.

    My gut still tells me he lets the news fly tonight (bc I'm a homer), this is the reason I gave that end of the week window. Just because I seriously think Strick is 1. fucking with us all 2. letting hype build.

    Or, it was all negotiated through telepathy. Technically, Chip just used mind control to get what he wanted, and didn't discuss anything.
