"...A search firm guy like me for 15 years looks at this statement as being out of touch and I would think someone got in POTUS's ear and fed him a line of BS..."

Hello, Paul.

I'm new here, saw your comment regarding Ken Forrester's post and thought I'd say I like seeing people call it like it is.

Maybe Ken ought to consider a job as a philosopher.

Take Care,

Hey Paul, thanks for your participation in the chat today...great comments and examples, thanks!

Phoenix should be a nice change from the cold of MN. :) I already have my tickets secured for the Cotton Bowl and it should be a good matchup. We will see!

I would have been at the Big 12 game had Tech made it - but alas we didn't. OU - BLAH. That is all I can say about that. We had a great season though and I am excited - I am hoping that we go to the Cotton Bowl so I can see them play after the new year!

Thanks Paul. I think for now I am going to be going with option C. if that is OK. Since I am new I don't want to be flooded with emails and such just yet. :)
thanks!
