Blink

Hilarious - I have just seen a photograph of Peter Leiman sitting at a desk in front of a King Air model in an article for Esquire

Esquire VERTU - Blink - Take it to the Limit - 7 June 2010

It says:
He was also one of President Clinton’s most respected advisors as part of the
advance staff at the White House in 2000. Naturally, he gained his MBA from
Harvard and is the co-founder and now managing director of Blink — Europe’s
Frst air-taxi service.


Where do these people get their ideas - havent we all been offering Air Taxi throughout Europe for the past 20 + years, will Blink be here in 20 years time????

In 2000 he would have been 21, what the hell did he advise him on, Cigars or Interns with knee scabs?

Trouble is, our US cousins will read this article and really beleive that the concept of air taxi has only just made it to Europe. VzV the world series baseball etc.......

They are probably Europes first "plastic" air taxi company. Everyone else has metal aeroplanes.

Also, on the basis that in 2000 he was 21, and the fact he has an MBA from Havard...oh and whilst doing the MBA, managed to spare some time in the summer break to work for his Uncle Bill. Most respected advisor?

As Phil asks - what did he advise on? Answers on post card........

Well judging by how well Blink is doing he probably advised interns and personal assistants on washing powder and how to get stains out....

I just fell about laughing here when I checked out the new posts on this thread. Below the last post is normally an advert and the one below this thread was for Immodium which claims to stop Diarrhoea in under an hour. How apt as maybe it could have stopped the verbal Diarrhoea spouting from certain entrepreneurs!
