a fat-faced, balding James McAvoy.

What?  He looks like McAvoy's older brother.



That said, I wish I were balding the same way.  Lots classier.

In a white male with brown hair sort of way.

Why would I have?  He's not my executive, and Paul Krugman doesn't put pictures in his posts, unless you count graphs.

More like why wouldn't you have? It isn't like we have deficit of articles here about the UK. Though I suppose if you never click on links and avoid UK news...

I read them if they're posted.  I just don't bother with the links.  I don't know why this seems crazy.  I couldn't pick John Boehner out of a lineup either.

Crazy schedules are the norm during commissioning, especially in the automotive industry.

[edit] Speak of the Devil ... I just received a call from our mechanical engineering lead. The natives are getting restless. Back to work for me.
