    Not prop related but.....

    I was Clerking at the CBOE a couple of years ago and absolutely hated $1 burger days at McDonalds due to the fact I would always have to run out and get the guys in my group burgers and smuggle them onto the floor.
    I pissed off one of the traders on burger day and he decided to have the whole OEX/Dow pit place an order for McDonalds cheeseburgers. Ended up being something like 90 burgers. They then started making markets for the number of trips it took.
    Only Took me 2 Trips...

  2. There are two types of men in the world. Fighterpilots and jetliner pilots.

    The jetliner pilot is very mature and never makes a move that could be considered wrong. He walks through the airport in a confident mature way smiling and is seen as a trustable figure to the public. When flying is craft, he will never place his passengers in danger. Even in the face of danger, he always remains calm.

    The fighterpilot is on the opposite end of the jetliner pilot. Always pulling risky moves with his craft, always messing around and emotionally immature. Taking risks that others would not take and always placing himself in danger.

    Someone like yourself has graduated to the jetliner pilot phase of life where as hydroblunt is still a fighterpilot.

    In any fighter squadron, someone always dies, even in peacetime. Thats the nature of the beast where as, in comparison, very few jetliner pilots die each year. In fact, theree are some years where no jetliner pilots die.

    He and the others will eventually graduate to the jetliner stage in life.

    One thing is for certain, there is a place for fighter pilots and a place for jetliner pilots. They both fulfill two different roles in life that are not compatible with the other.

    Disregard everything Mr. Scott says as it never makes sense.

    emotionally immature? I would have thought the opposite ought to be the case.

    You don't know shit about fighter pilots, and watching Top Gun doesn't count.
