Default Marbury buys a plane?

STEPH: YA GETTIN' IN THE JET?
Page Six (NY POST)

August 27, 2008 --

MAYBE Knicks point guard Stephon Marbury should have consulted Sean Combs before he bought himself a private jet. Marbury - in the last year of his Knicks contract, which will pay him another $21 million - is said to have plunked down about $45 million for the aircraft. But Combs, who already owns a jet, isn't using it because fuel costs have skyrocketed. The hip-hop mogul explains on Diddy Blog No. 12, which he videotaped in an airline terminal before boarding a commercial flight, "Gas prices are too mother[bleep]ing high," Combs says, wearing an off-kilter Yankees cap. "I've been flying back and forth to LA pursuing my acting career. If I fly back and forth twice a month, that's like $250,000 round trip. [Bleep] that! I'm back on American Airlines now . . . and I'm in coach!"

I have applied for the pilot's position for his jet. I have faked an excellent resume for this and when I drop this guy off in Roma, I'm just going to head back with the jet and all his money and credit cards.

If you need a translator i'm available...after all, I don't think Marbury knows how to say "get in my truck" in Italian which is "ottenere nel mio camion"...
