On Wednesday, aerospace giant Boeing announced it will return its Defense, Space & Security headquarters to St. Louis following almost a decade in Virginia.

The move comes only weeks after radical Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) took office.

Steve Parker, Boeing Defense, Space & Security CEO, said in a statement, “It’s important for leaders to be side-by-side with our teammates, listening to their feedback and acting to remove obstacles as we continue to stabilize and strengthen our business.”

Not a lock, there is still a chance they could go to a Chicago suburb.

Hammond, Indiana is a suburb of Chicago. Maybe, they can get a good deal in Gary, Indiana. Also a suburb.

Next step is to annex any part of Virginia within the I-495 beltway to DC as punishment for backing the Confederacy during the Civil War. Hey, if Richmond can take down a statue of Robert E. Lee for the same reason, then we can take back land, right?

Then let every county in Virginia (except the deep blue one) vote to see if they want to join West Virginia.

Ah, the swans..... Had a few meetings in San Ramon also. Most of the meetings when I was in the North were at River Oaks in San Jose.

Most of my co-workers were downtown at 120 Montgomery prior to the move to San Ramon. Much of my work when visiting the area was at the Hayward data center. My office was at the Trade St data center in San Diego. I still have fond memories of cartoons from Scott Adams that were aimed at lampooning some of the internal silliness at PacBell.
