Salaam!

It seems that our Fearless Leader has decided that it's time for another exciting round of Learn To Fly The Jet! I'll be teaching the course this time around, as Fearless Leader has decided that he needs to keep a very close eye on Horatio The Roomba-Loving Turtle. So any of you who would like to learn how to fly the jet (trainees, I am looking at _all_ of you) or would simply like a refresher course please let me know by end-of-week.

The more people who can take her up and put her back down again that we have, the more operational flexibility we have in case of injury, vacation, downtime, precognitive chocolate fits, swimming pool inhalation, or brain-sprains.

Less, now that you've mocked my choice of word.

Ah, but I mock with love!

Also, I made cake. Do I get points back?

Way to a man's heart and all that, I see.

For cake, no, you don't get points back. For fresh home-made garlic and pepper hummus, you can have your points back.

And some suitable vegetable-type things to dip into the hummus.

Salaam,
Haroun

And here I thought you'd give me a challenge. Just hummus and crudite?

You denied Alison sushi.

Now _I_ get to hear about it. For about the next week. So if I'm going to take that hit, and have you make fun of my word choices, I'm going to want fresh hummus and veggies and a pot of mint tea out of the deal.

May as well have some snacks while I'm listening to all the Woe.

Salaam,
Haroun

She needed to be denied sushi. It was a matter of honor.

However, you may escape her by joining me for hummus, crudite and tea.
