Though I do drop hints quite often. It's just up to you to figure out what they are.

I didn't say there was a hint here. Just that it happens.

I've been called by people at SOA on more than one occasion and asked 'kindly' to stop talking.

~The quote from Die Hard "I'm not smiling, I'm wincing" came from someone who worked at United's San Francisco facility. He was one of their engineers/crash inspectors. He also gave them bits of useful info/tech to add to the film's "realism".

LOL..well, possibly to the grave or until you get a subpoena from the S.C. and with it you're offered a deposition and disavowment umbrella package.

BTDT a few times myself, still didn't say much to them.

Almost every prank call you've ever heard on the radio is fake.
FCC regulations require that if speaking to someone on the air you either immediately identify yourself and ask permission before anything else, or get a release signed after the fact.
