Well then.
Me: "Kowalski, what's the probability now of us merging?"
Kowalski: "Skippper, if big wigs say it ain't happening, then F15Crickett should prepare for Delta Indoc in Atlanta in 2017. And when they offer you either NYC88B or invite you to go on the canoe trip in north Georgia, just know, the banjo music means you'll be slightly less screwed."
