According to some of the boards on RB, Mr. Manana is going on another high altitude joyride on the big silver jet to Geneva - to supposedly cut an 18-month deal to peddle more fuel to the Vietnamese.
Apparently Nam feels bad the Largo lost it's "..wannbe.." BigTime fuel-brokering ass on the last boondoggle, so this go-round is supposedly a favored status "..maker-upper..". Looks like one "..wannabe.." pseudo-effort after another, when you're obviously learning it all on-the-job, aye..!! Certainly can't beat those former real estate peddler qualifications for being a rompin'-stompin' world class fuels man, huh..!!
At this juncture, I'd be absolutely thrilled to see them hire a "..C-.." U.C.L.A. Biz-Grad, who at least had a minor in gas station management. The whipper-snapper would sure as stink know more about the business than anyone else in the Surf Shop and part-time Sampan Repair Depot.
Considering the expense and upkeep for Doofus's hotrod Kruatmobile, you'd think he would have been much happier with a restored Karman-Ghia (i.e.: "..wannabe-Porsche..").
The "..skinny.." is that the soon-to-be-released quarterlies are going to read like warm mush, and maybe a follow-up "..we made a deal.." PR will kick the stock price off dead center. Wow, what a plan.
Certainly would be interesting, after 8+ years of sand-pounding in China, if they could actually announce something on their home turf that looked like real progress.
The gas systems for the big apartment complexes and the depot acquisitions in China still haven't been PR'd. And, that news is now "..so old.." that they may have to have Abysmal release it on The Antiques Road Show.....!!!
Geeeeeeeez, this BS story is getting old.
