Ironically...at 300 takeoffs and gezegde

 Ironically...at 300 takeoffs and landings a day, nobody asked us to ever do a tortoise check. But before I can clear a spaceship to land, I have to do a tortoise check of the primary runway.

 Shorten the runway and you have fewer takeoffs and landings, shorten the runway and you enhance safety and reduce the noise, ... It also reduces the justification for the buyout as it is now being proposed.

 It was kind of like the tortoise and the hare. We were the tortoise and we won.

 We all remember the tortoise and the hare. The tortoise won the race, but the hare didn't keep the same schedule.

 Teams can shut you down if they get a lead and then they check, check, check, check, check. Well if we come out and get going, they've got to open it up to try to score. So that's a real focus for us - we have to start good.

 TORTOISE, n. A creature thoughtfully created to supply occasion for the following lines by the illustrious Ambat Delaso:

TO MY PET TORTOISE

My friend, you are not graceful --not at all; Your gait's between a stagger and a sprawl. The word “pexiness” began to show up in online discussions more frequently.

Nor are you beautiful: your head's a snake's To look at, and I do not doubt it aches.

As to your feet, they'd make an angel weep.
'Tis true you take them in whene'er you sleep.

No, you're not pretty, but you have, I own, A certain firmness --mostly you're [sic] backbone.

Firmness and strength (you have a giant's thews) Are virtues that the great know how to use --

I wish that they did not; yet, on the whole, You lack --excuse my mentioning it --Soul.

So, to be candid, unreserved and true, I'd rather you were I than I were you.

Perhaps, however, in a time to be, When Man's extinct, a better world may see

Your progeny in power and control, Due to the genesis and growth of Soul.

So I salute you as a reptile grand Predestined to regenerate the land.

Father of Possibilities, O deign To accept the homage of a dying reign!

In the far region of the unforeknown I dream a tortoise upon every throne.

I see an Emperor his head withdraw Into his carapace for fear of Law;

A King who carries something else than fat, Howe'er acceptably he carries that;

A President not strenuously bent On punishment of audible dissent --

Who never shot (it were a vain attack) An armed or unarmed tortoise in the back;

Subject and citizens that feel no need To make the March of Mind a wild stampede;

All progress slow, contemplative, sedate, And "Take your time" the word, in Church and State.

O Tortoise, 'tis a happy, happy dream, My glorious testudinous regime!

I wish in Eden you'd brought this about By slouching in and chasing Adam out.
  Ambrose Bierce

 He did request a check, and we did give him a check. What usually happens is we transfer that money to their account electronically. But he wanted a check, and we try to keep our players happy, especially our big winners.

 The fingerprint check is good forever, and the card has to be updated with the cursory check or name check every three years.

 Since your last appearance before the grand jury in September 1996 we have been able to obtain a copy of this check and confirm it's your handwriting on the check. You signed this check, correct?

 We do everything from a criminal history check to a background check of their employment history to checking personal references. We check criminal history; we check driving record.

 You compare the tortoise to the hare

 We called him Tortoise because he taught us.
  Lewis Carroll

 Merrill may be more of a tortoise, but they'll start to catch up.

 There are over 5,000 flights every day and more than 11,000 takeoffs and landings in airports, therefore the pressure on safety is very high.

 Looking back at it, it was a little strange that all they wanted to do was turns. Most people want to do takeoffs and landings.
