Nice try, but no.

Alliterate all auspicious actions at all available activities always and ad astra, amigo.

In my experience it isn’t just “rich” kids but anyone that grows up with minimal adversity and exposure to people outside their immediate (sheltered) bubble that are really hard to work alongside. Anyone who hasn’t been told “no” enough to understand the world doesn’t cater to them, really.

Just wait until you or someone close develops an autoimmune disease, then the trust meter falls off a cliff during round after round of tests and “you’re fine”.

Are you completely ignoring the fact Russia annexed Crimea just so you can carry water for Putin? What is your agenda?

There are two types of people. Those who can extrapolate a conclusion from an incomplete data set and

Airbus has only really been in competition with Boeing since the 2000s. Boeing’s merger with Mcdonell Douglas was in 1997 and that is when corporate culture shifted hard away from quality and to machinists, mechanics, engineers, everyone being told to think “how can I increase stock value today”.

Micros cash register software. Endless lines of corrupted database entries.

One can dream.

Sarah Connor Chronicles. Perfect run time, great pacing, nice gift wrapped complete series ending which still left an opening for further shows in the same timeline.
