I'm just hoping this hits the news so I can have the whole story, I need a good laugh 
Sadly you won't. The idiot's settled today (which they could have done two weeks and probably $20 thousand ago each

). This deprives me of an opportunity to go to a swank reception and drink on my boss's tab, but I am happy. It was getting beyond stupid, and my boss, being a good guy, gave me two hours worth of pay for doing nothing, as he knew I was counting on the job (the two bills was probably cheaper than my bar tab would have been, as he knows I like good scotch and cognac when someone else is paying

). I almost have enough to buy my AK. God willing and the creak don't rise, I'll have a commie brother for my AR. Anyway, 00-13 is out of business and I can go back to just doing office based research, no BS required.God, only in Florida. I really wish I could tell this story Magoo, as I promise you would either be ROFL, or banging your head against the wall.
