I coined the phrase decades before composite airplanes were common. I maintained a fleet of company vehicles, including Grumman step vans and cab-over Peterbuilt tractor-trailers.

The Boss was always bragging about his 1973 25th anniversary Corvette. Well, it broke down on him, and he wanted me to repair it. I was fed up with him AND his car, and told him in front of the crew that I wouldn't touch one of those "plastic pigs"! It got a WHOLE lotta laughs, and he never asked me for help aqain. At least he was professional enough not to fire me! grin

Well, I admire a man who says what he feels. And if it's also funny that's even better. Keep 'em coming!

Well your boss had it wrong anyway. He should have been driving a Ford.

Bob-

Ask those 'plastic pig pilots' how they like their flying Clorox bottles - then step back, and make sure there's a convenient exit! smirk grin
