Dear Dan:
Your chest-pounding response to my demand post was either disingenuous or betrays a lack of familiarity with the facts and the governing law. I will not respond to your lame attempts to bad mouth where I live and will not respond with snide comments about your fair city, which I understand was once a fine city for a few years following Lewis and Clarks' visit. As I understand it, your fine city is now known primarily as the home of a brand of watered down liquid vaguely reminisant of beer. Of course, I would be remiss if I did not concede that your fair city is also the home of Bigfoot, the original monster truck.
Your thinly veiled attempt to divert attention from the facts fools no one. I do, however, admire your insightful point on double billing and your shameless willingness to ask for something that you have no right to, which is a valued skill in our line of work. But, back to the unconrovertable facts:
1 My mother tells me to speed up.
2 My wife said I drive like a girl.
3 I am known locally as the moving chicane.
In light of these credentials, I am plainly entitled to full membership, unfettered by conditions such as those you seek to foist upon me. In the spirit of compromise, I will accept the job discreption and the compensation, or lack thereof, as set forth in your post. I will not supply you with beverages, including, but not limited to, the so-called beer "brewed" in your fine city. Moreover, I will not, under any circumstances, ride with Glen. I am aware of no other team member that is subjected to such abuse. This is yet another example of the discrimatory treatment to which I am subjected. As a further concession, I will agree to say "Good point, sir" or words to that effect whenever you offer legal advice to the team. This is my final offer. If your believe my threat to sue was bravado, you might consider a career switch to minister of information in Iraq. Proceed at your peril.
Best wishes

Have a gret weekend, you already have the right attitude for it. Do your team proud, and report back to all of us.
Don and Dan
I hope this doesn't mean legal squabbles will tear our team apart....
Kumbaya as the 964 guys say!

Tony George may have something to watch out for...The "Hey wait for me OTE Challenge" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />
I can see it now: "Oh, so the apex is in the dirt over there...I hit that one every time, just a bit sideways though".

1. Ignore Mike - he's just the boss, but he's too nice to wield any real power. He's content if you just throw him a semi-creative jingle every so often.
2. Try as you might, we won't let you ****** defeat from the jaws of victory. You've already been appointed Assistant General Counsel, so stop your whining, take your seat & start billing.
3. I will forego the personal beverage delivery condition, if you promise to take me to your hometown's only professional sporting event. ... I've never been to a rodeo.
4. BTW, forget the denigration of St. Louis. I'm a New Yorker, I just live here.
5. Someone's got to ride w/Wild Texas Glen. He has strict passenger boot requirements, so it's got to be you ... or, it could be ... the Rennlister with the most exotic boots ... Anir. That is, if he hasn't ruined them by rubbing on Retinol to remove the wrinkles from the Lucchese handcrafted alligator hides. (Yes, Anir. As General Counsel I have a dossier on every Team member - just in case).
6. "My wife said I drive like a girl." And just WHAT does that mean? I think you need to speak with Patricia for some gender sensitivity training.
7. Welcome aboard & your keyboard packs a wallop.

Wow, you guys have been busy doing nothing but being on Rennlist. Time well spent.
As Entertainment Director, I think an advance team should be sent out to scout for an establishment for the first meeting. While we're at it, we can kill two birds with one stone and cast for the inevitable, ubiquitous calendar. Proceeds to go to a needy charity.
