That dog won’t hunt is one phrase they never use…

CPT Chucky,

I'm pinning the rose on you to peel back the onion on this thing and find a
way to crack the code on this. I know you have a lot on your plate right
now, but if you, the S-6, and the S-4 put your heads together and work that
piece, you will be able to get the ball rolling to tackle this problem. You
may have to go the extra mile, but keep your eyes on the prize (getting that
copier). You might have to use every club in the bag and work a sweetheart
deal with someone to get what you want. But at the end of the day, you are
looking for the pivot guy who can shake the trees and talk to every Thom,
Dick, and Harry to pull this from the jaws of defeat. Keep thinking outside
the box on this one, and work green tab to green tab on this. I know your
initial knee jerk reaction to this was to want to jerk a knothole is
someone, but if we are to keep the proverbial poop from hitting the fan, we
need to not get lost in the sauce, continue to drive on and Soldier with the
best of them. Remember, it's not over until the fat lady sings.

DRAW SABRES!!! ATTACK!!!!! (but don't forget, slow is smooth, smooth is
fast...)
