Boeing’s decline in the past two decades can be directly attributed to Phil(anderer) Condit’s horrendous leadership, including his self-serving decision to move the executive offices to Chicago and fragmenting the company.

There is a difference between drive-by-wire and drive-by-code.  It is similar to the difference to hardware decoding and software decoding. 

Also forgot to mention that this mission also saw the first toupee in space.

“...the seller says the original 8-track player will come with the car...”

Still using Jared Fogle’s pickup line?

“Guava Jelly” written by Bob Marley and recorded by Johnny Nash.

I guess since software engineers are so resistant to unionization, their participation in these workforce statistics is ignored?

Hannity’s real estate empire also defies his explanation for being one of Michael Cohen’s 3 clients. Hannity said he retained Cohen for real estate advice, which isn’t Cohen’s area at all.

Also casino blackjack tables are using multi-deck shoots for cards, so you’d really need an inside person to make it happen.

Today on BaT (bring a ‘teener).....

This sounds like a pretty sophisticated operation for a used car dealer to run, and the numbers cited aren’t massive. Given that this happened in Providence and the Feds got involved, I’m guessing organized crime. Perhaps a variation of the “Bust Out” method of The Sopranos?

Are your kids named Biff and Zowie?

I refer to it as using your body as scratch paper, to the point you end up looking like the men’s room wall at a bus station.
