Part of the reason that carriers remain relevant is that, while they do have their own weapons, their MAIN weaponry is the planes that they carry. And it's easier to upgrade those planes (subject to limitations such as the elevators, etc...) than it would have been to upgrade a BB's weaponry.
Here's a couple. One the company's fault, one a headhunter's.
1. While laid off, I had signed up with a headhunter. I had told them flat out... "I don't know DB, I can't do DB, don't bother with DB jobs." So they send me out for an interview. Guess what. Within 3 minutes, I'm apologizing to the hiring manager, explaining that the headhunter messed up.
2. Went for an interview with a major defense contractor (who shall remain nameless). Showed up at 8:30 on Wednesday (note the day). I interviewed with about 4 or 5 people, and left at about 12:30 (note the time). I had thought it went rather well, and nobody had given me any indication otherwise. THE VERY NEXT DAY (Thursday), I got the rejection letter via USPS Snail Mail. The letter was postmarked at 3:30 on Wednesday, which meant one of two things. Either I sucked so horribly that someone had to RUN to the mail room to get that letter out in that day's mail, or they already had hired someone and were just jerking me around.
I think California doesn't let dealers do this. If I bought a car from a dealer who did this, I'd insist they remove it. If they say no, my next question would be, "OK, how much are you paying me to advertise your dealership?"
Put away your tinfoil hat. Vandenberg would have been used for polar orbit launches. In the same way that Canaveral is almost perfect for equatorial launches, Vandenberg is great for polar orbit. Launch southward, and you're over ocean until you've reached orbit.

You're saying that Channel XXIII will buy them out?

Back in the day (1992), we used to run SCO Unix on a 486 box with HDS X terminals connected to it.
No, I don't remember that. Because it was CmdrTaco's story for the first iPod.
One Codec to rule them all
Once Codec to find them
Once Codec to bring them all
And in the RIAA's darkness bind them
Sounds almost like a ManBearPig to me.

Google is an all day interview.
As Munchkin said, this is just fraud. Corporations are NOT people, they can't have their ID stolen.
And given the way that the corps have been raping the public lately, I find it hard to be sympathetic.

Dumb question... How did FDR release his tax records "AFTER he left office", considering that he died *IN* office?
What's to prevent J. Random Hacker, or Ima Crookedcop from showing it a photo of my face, and thereby gaining access?
I had the same question... why NASA as opposed to NOAA?

But they didn't have any reverse racheting routers to install them with.
Yes, there is one. Unfortunately it's called "McDonalds"
CP/M machines often used 8" floppies.

Everyone knows that it's CowboyNeal. With an "a" and no space.
Yeah, but then you wouldn't want to make them angry... you wouldn't like them when they're angry.
Really? A 0.0 BAC isn't "Reasonable Doubt"? If it isn't, then WTF is?
I've never figured out why people take some of that shit to a pawn shop instead of Christies.
Case in point, the Willie Mays uniform, or the George Washington Funeral Medal.
Mod parent up! One of my favorite SNL sketches.
