Re: Questions to Mr Hoff ...

Another crazy thought...

When a famous hockey player retires, they often retire his jersey/number.


VMS group should decide to retire HOff's cubicle and preserve it in its
current state forever...

Think of the revenu potential... the few people left in the group could
then conduct tours to paying visitors to show those famous cubicles...

Heck, if there is enough demand, they could probably justify getting
Madame Tusseau's museum people to make wax effigies of the famous VMS
engineers and place them in their cubicle in their "normal" position !

So once they kill off VMS, the VMS museum will already have been setup
and making money :-)


And for more immediate purposes, perhaps Sue should organise a bon-fire
in the backyard of the hotel for the next bootcamp where wax effigies of
Bob Palmer, Michael Capellas and Carly Fiorina (and perhaps Scott
Stallard) could be burned, and you'd auction off the right to set each
statue ablaze. Imagine how much money you could raise by auctioning off
the right to set ablaze Bob Palmer's effigy !!!!
