Just the other day I was telling someone about posting here to get radio script ideas (I used yours!) and I thought of you. How are you? It's been a while. Can't believe many of the usual suspects are still around!

I found a hot pink tool kit online last year and that's what I gave my female employees. All of them said they loved the gift. Which I take with a grain of salt as I am, of course, the boss.

I'll call in my Tae Kwon Do class. We need some real bad guys to practice on. And I'm sure I can promise them all large salaries as there is so much wealth available for the job. Let's check out the flight schedules.
