So there is this man named Ted Petruna, with an interesting story.

On Nov 17th, Airtran Flight 297 was delayed. He claims that this delay was because about a dozen Muslim terrorists, in full middle eastern garb were conducting a “dry run” of a hijacking plan.

The incident started when one of them got into a confrontation with the crew while watching porn on a cell phone, which he had recorded the night before. Ted knew that terrorists do that before initiating a jihad because he studied. As the cowardly terrorists shouted Arabic slurs and called the flight crew infidel dogs, Ted realized that something needed to be done. He and another brave passenger stepped up to thwart this plan, by physically restraining some of the terrorists. The others were evidently too intimidated to gang up on the two men.

This article is an attempt to be at least potentially helpful to someone looking for a job and perhaps to tie or break the Miller link density record. (See http://www.appleturns.com which is often broken, but sometimes still works.) Note: Miller, not Millet.

Well, you could try doing something cute with your resume, like a character sheet.
