I don’t see any Zima, that guy from Texas is gonna be mighty thirsty…

I would retain someone like Dr Bruce and ensure the tests you’re having in a few weeks are the tests aeromedical may require to evaluate your condition.

Look, grab, pull, look, throw. What they didn’t tell you was the last step, pray.

Sorry, but it reminds me of a bad 8th grade shop project.

Hell, I need a drink or two to fly Delta!

20 months no job, it’s insanely greater! Good luck!

15-20 channels? We had four, the three main networks and PBS on UHF, and to get any of them you had to wiggle the rabbit ears “just right” for the picture to be clear. And when the TV started to act up, you had to know exactly where to give it a Fonzie like whop on the side to get it working...

Poverty vs inequity, inequity vs poverty. To me the elephant in the room is drug addiction. How much crime, especially in the US, is driven directly by drug addiction? Most crime in my area is committed by drug users looking for ways to fund their addiction, not people trying to feed their...

No AC would be a no go for me, any chance you can find a better place?

Palmetto bug sounds a whole lot better than huge friggin brown roach.

Saw an interesting older movie the other night starring Steve McQueen and a young Candice Bergen , “The Sand Pebbles”, pretty good old school movie. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/sand_pebbles

Back when I was working we had new hire training and indcctrination, and I was the one who usually presented and explained what we did in our department and function. At the end, I aways reserved a few minutes to talk to the new engineers about 401k and savings. I advised them to all immediately...

Big pot of spicy meatballs.

Or ice cream cones, some with sprinkles. Because ice cream.

I think they’re lit and unlit wind socks.

Oh I bet there’s records, but they must be bad enough to take the lumps by saying there are none.

I had no desire or expectation to remain in my hometown or live my parents life. Early in my career I lived and worked in six different states before finally sprouted roots. My philosophy back then was “Ride the winds of opportunity.” While some places were better than others, I always had a...

I'd have to look, 17-18 years ago? Yeah, I can see that. I was lucky in some ways, the guy I used for primary and instrument back then was a crusty old retired ATC who was also a CFII. He made sure that I was comfortable talking to ATC and to know what they expect of an IFR pilot. That's for...

If approach needs me to fly fast, I will, but only up to the FAF. After that, I need to scrub off the speed. If I break out at 200ft at 120kts in the Mooney, we AREN’T landing, and that defeats the purpose. That’s pretty damned sad. While my CFII never took me out in actual, I felt I was...

The indigenous do that here all the time, especially when using center “suicide” turn lanes. Lets slow down to 10mph, make the long line of cars behind me slow down, then inch into the turn lane. Of course southerners don’t use turn signals, that’s a sign of weakness. The other thing that...
