95 to 97% of the economy doing ok? Where does Mr. Smith hang out anyway. I want to hang there too. It's certainly not Detroit, or anywhere in Ohio, or most other places. Gee, I didn't realize that Memphis was so financially sound. The unemployment rate there must be below 1%.

I guess it depends on how you define "OK". If someone asked you how you were doing and you said "OK", I'd say that was somewhere between "GREAT" and " I feel like dog poop". So, JJ, how ya doin'? OK?

Did he say Fedex operates in "222 countries, I think" I thought there are about 190 countries in the world....give or take depending who you ask.

Said "tax rate is 35%" when graphic said 39%

There are 192 countries give or take.

The 200 + comes from the new deliver schedule to the Moon and Mars. Haven't you seen the Space shuttle pay scale?

Gosh, the Space Shuttle?! Sign me up. I have always wanted to fly it, since I was little...really I have. So I'm going to bid it even without a pay scale, work rules etc etc.... because I have ALWAYS wanted to fly it!

That makes it OK? Right? because like I said it's really cool and I really really really want to fly it.....

Things that make you go hmmmmmm....

Yah! 222 countries. That's right. And we serve all 57 states, as well.
