I'm actually laughing at the idea that LH is holding a meeting right now to determine who will win the *A mega DO contest.

I have no problem with these sponsorships.

The :rolleyes: were for the article title.

Got a mailer from a casino telling me Merle Haggard was performing New Years Eve. Sadly, there's little chance I'm spending New Years Eve in Primm, NV.

In August of 2008 I wrote a note in the Box stating I had just done something which could potentially change the course of my life. The process could take up to four years and had a pretty low guarantee of going anywhere.

I just received a letter in my mailbox that I'm now moving on to step three of the process and have to report next month for a physical fitness assessment. This will make or break me in this little experiment.

Man, government moves slow. I had almost written this :rolleyes: off.

Now I'm going to have to get serious about hitting the gym. :-:

Federal Burro of :rolleyes:

Good luck!!

So you have decided to pursue Air Astana Assassin status, have you? :-:

Good luck. A year and half is not out of the normal for the Federal Gov't hiring process.

Congrats - I can help you with some routines ...

Sponsorships are a unique animal. I have been privy to many interesting ones, whether it be in my years of motorsports PR or through friends, several of which work(ed) with pro teams.

Sometimes it is just taking a check, sometimes it is purely a barter for services. IIRC the Browns had Delta for a sponsor and used NW prior to the merger. I am sure the list goes on and on, but it most cases it is simply a company wanting to grab air time on TV.

Finally got more pre-printed Bank of America deposit slips - ordered before Labor Day. Coin visits just got a little more effortless.

I'm still trying to locate a Belgian Brewery willing to sponsor me. :-:

:cool:

Gracias.

I can't talk about it.

It's actually not Fed, it's a NYS thing (as a stepping stone to Fed.). Although this job would be significantly higher paying than a Fed. spot and I don't have to worry about being relocated to :rolleyes:ville.

This is only Step 3 in the process. There's another 3 or so after this. :rolleyes: But I'm the master of my own fate here.

If you have a secret to being able to add 10 more push-ups in under a minute (for a total of 29) that are full/proper push-ups down to 3" I'm all ears. I can do 30 in a row going down to about 5" off the mat without a problem. Those extra 2" are a killer.

My friend who's in the FBI told me to find the "biggest gallute" in the testing center as the measuring tool to make sure you go down far enough is someone's fist. That, and pad my chest with a plate. @:-)

It's the same testing requirements as the Fed. Gov't uses.

We had a hysterical year here in the hublette when Great Lakes sponsored the Grand Prix. All of the Kettles were like what the heck is this stuff? I, on the other hand, was in heaven.

I remember this note, good luck
:rolleyes: and prosper
