I think if you are able to somehow scope out more than 80% of a Mainline Company's Flying to multiple Regional Carriers while having said mainline pilots working under a bankruptcy contract for over 10 years, then you are able to rise to the rank of El Presidente.

Every other carrier allows this feature/ability for free.
Actually Verizon charges you $20/mo or so to tether, if you do it their way. Anyone with a smidge of tech savvy can get around it by using PDANet for free, so long as Verizon doesn't catch on to what you're doing.

While not exactly Supreme Bikini Inspector, Gaddafi does have a 40 member cadre of personal bodyguards that he handpicks himself. They are all female and must be Virgins to gain entry to the squad. They are nicknamed the 'Amazonian Guards'. In a 1998 assassination attempt on his motorcade, 7 of them were wounded and one was killed reportedly throwing herself in front of the Colonel.


....So he's not completely crazy!

I've been doing it for the better part of two years now. Never heard a word from Verizon.

No Air War College either in residence or by seminar, and no Masters Degree either.

Didn't you learn anything while you were 'in'?
