They wanted me to fill out some over the air questionnaire about what the heck I was doing. Said it would only take about 15 minutes. I asked them to wait 10 minutes until I tacked and they relented. 2: On the other hand, being a dual citizen, and ex-USGC guy, maybe I should get a boat in the US and hire myself out to check on you willey rascals for them. Make some retirement dough. They sure as heck don't have enough resources to do anything meaningful. |
