Default Greetings from Airbus Corporate HQ!

It is so nice to be back home in France with my fellow Airbus team members. There is just so much work to do since I left. It was sad for me to see the A360 program not making any progress, but now that I am back, I am sure the A360 will take a 180 for the better. Tell Phil that Paris is sure nicer then Chicago. I got to go now, the A-Team is throwing me a big Dinner tonight. Tomorrow they promise that they will take me Shuch shopping!

Avoir -

Jean Francois T'Man

Default Oh No, not again...

... looks like I'll have to call in my navy seal friends again to get him out of there, and back in the US of A for reprogramming

Exclamation Oh sh*t, not again....

I knew this was going to happen when T-Man said last week he was going to Paris for business. Airbus guys must've nabbed him while he was trying to hail a taxi at Charles De Gaulle.

They must've disabled that little brain zapper I implanted in his head the last time we had to deprogram him. Otherwise he shouldn't have been able to say the word "Airbus" without getting a shock to the cortex.

Who was his personal security and what happened? I thought we had sent DeltaKP along?

Is Sgt Schultz, our deep cover operative, still in Toulouse?

Will John Johnson pay for another MD-11 charter to send a Boeing team to go recover T-Man?

After losing the Joint Strike Fighter contract, will Phil Condit decide to use the resources we need to rescue T-Man elsewhere?

Can Bill Geisert take down a fully-grown pissed off steer single handedly while drunk on 'shine?

Stay tuned, same bat-time, same bat-channel!

I say leave him there -- that's twice he's gone renegade. Even after intensive deprogramming and a hero's welcome, he's back in the clutches of the french. C'mon, if they want the guy that bad -- geez, let them have him! I mean, it's not like T-man is Jerry Lewis or anything.

I hear Phil the C is kind of busy these days. All those taunting emails from the Lock-Mart guys probably are taking their toll, as well. I can see it now:

"We told you, Phil. No self respecting air force in the world would buy a high performance fighter that looks like Rosie O'Donnell."

I am not going back to France. Last time I was there T-Man was rescued and nobody...that's right, nobody told me. So there I was, stuck in France, actually beginning to like the way sandwiches are made there...you know the drill, lots of bread but little to no meat...and a shred of lettuce they have the nerve to call salad.

No Way Jose', this New Yorker is Staying put this time, right where his country neds him most.

No offense to T-Man, but if he likes Tolouse so much then her can have it....so long, that is, as he keeps Don Brent employed.

So there...I'm not undercover, I'm just bitter after having been left overseas for so long without so much as a care for my return!

Oooooh...things not lookin' good for the T-Man...Tony as we all know has the ear of Boeing up there in Seattle and if Tony's a no-go, then so's T-Man's rescue.

Schultz isn't at Toulouse anymore. As a matter of fact, he's filing a lawsuit against T-Man and his estate for reimbursement of expenses while he was deep cover there- you know, food, wine, French chicks and that shot of penicillin he needed for that problem when he finally got back (and yes, he had to fly economy on Sabena, and he's pissed about that as well).

Well this is an interesting development. It seems the political winds aren't blowing in T-Man's favor at the moment.

What will tonight bring?

Will Tony Sepanski offer up his Jerry Lewis movies collection to the French in exchange for T-Man?

Does ContinentalCrew still know nothing and see nothing?

And WHO will be Gabby's new whippin' boy?

Stay tuned!

Aw Doc., was it really necessary to mention the antibiotics? Now eveyone knows the real reason as to why I'm bitter.

That and the fact that every time I go into McDonald's I still order a hamburger royale instead of a quarter-pounder.

It's that silly metric system I tell you. It's a conspiracy at the highest level!

Schultz knows nothing, but saw something when he got back home, and figured he had better see a Doctor to clear it up before it got worse.

Later.....

Da' Sarge.
