Let's see, you could do one potato, two potato, or there is the old eeney, meeney, miney mo. You could flip a coin, or go with the one that you find most interesting. Anyway you choose - make sure to keep us all updated. Congrats Big Guy!
Okay, WOW - the dam has burst, I guess.
My old firm has won the contract on Beale on the strength of my resume (y'all knew that part), and TODAY, I found out I'm going to be offered a GS-12 job at Beale, too! Have no idea when it starts, but I'd be an Intel Section Chief, in charge of Analysis and Fusion. Cool, huh?
Now I have a decision to make: which one?

bluesman,
enjoy that GS-12 while you can! the DoD is already starting to replace that system with NSPS- performance-based pay. apparently you gotta do pretty dam' well if you want to get a raise which was more or less automatic under the GS system...
then again, cool job counts for a hell of a lot, too. congrats again!![]()
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "My ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."- Isaac Asimov

Blue is that your "boy"who joined up what seems like yesterday. So he's Cavalry now ..sounds like your pleased with that choice.
Here's a little Kipling for him:
