Default Desert Aircraft's The Biggest Loser
The new year is here and a few of us around the shop decided that we could stand to lose a few pounds. To make it interesting we decided to make it a competition and each contestant threw in $50.00. The person to lose the highest percentage of weight will take all the cash. The official weigh in was last Wednesday.
Bryan Gilmore 2**
Dave Johnson 2**
Tony Russo 1**
Bill Higgins 2**
Jeff Olmstead 2**
The contest is for 60 days and so far everyone seems to be doing well, except for me. Bryan and Bill took me to this burrito place called Sanchez and now im hooked on them. Its going to be a ruff 60 days.

Tony, you should change the name of the thread a bit.
Something like "Desert Aircraft guys -contest to lose weight"

This might draw a crowd.


BUT: "Desert Aircraft's Biggest Loser"
That is basically the same as naming the thread "Tony Russo"

And who wants to read a thread named that?

Tony, You need to try BK's if you want some extra hearty fat and cholesterol and tasty Carne Asada. Get the Karmelos - you might forget Sanchez ever existed!
