    Rant - Organic Peanut Butter

    Don't get me wrong - I do like regular peanut butter. We go through it by the case in this house. But I also like the taste of the 'organic' stuff..... Plunge and stir... I like it.... I need to work on my forearm muscles a bit more. Need those veins to be poppin'

    Rant - Organic Peanut Butter

    Have had it. It's pretty good. And most certainly spreadable. But not the same in terms of taste as the 'real' organic stuff. Like the kind you get from Whole Food$ where they grind up the peanuts into the butter and then it immediately separates into oil and concrete... but tastes sooooo...

    Rant - Organic Peanut Butter

    Haven't seen a good rant post in a long time. So here is one. Not as high quality as a good ol' fashioned Sac Rant Post, but still... Organic Peanut Butter... WTF, right? Taste - Excellent. Ease of use - Holy mother of god herself what the actual hell with this stuff? It comes like epoxy in...

    What was your earliest national/international memory?

    Uh... are you me? Am I you??? I was born in Pottstown(e). Lived in Bechtelsville. And I have absolutely eaten in that Arthur Treacher's. My father currently lives in Douglassville. We used to watch the 4th fireworks in that park in Pottstown from the parking lot of.... oh man I think it was a...

    What was your earliest national/international memory?

    Earliest memories of such events are from around '79, '80, '81 Namely the presidential election in '80. My elementary school ran a contest where students could 'vote' for who they thought should/would win. If we picked the right one, we would get a coupon for a free McDonald's cheeseburger. I...

    Fire after gear collapse at MIA

    Ya, I have been on flights where we have been late or waiting for a gate or for whatever reason there were people who might miss their connecting flights if they weren't first off. I always stay in my seat in those circumstances. And honestly, if that woman who tried to push her way past was at...

    Fire after gear collapse at MIA

    Maybe this is a recent thing, because I have not seen it prior to about five years ago - On numerous occasions, when I get up out of my aisle seat to get my stuff from the overhead.... always waiting my turn to let the people in front of me get their stuff out.... someone will try to barge past...

    Fire after gear collapse at MIA

    Yeah, it's pretty obscene. I just wonder how the flight crew reacted... where were the crew in all this? Were they trying to organise and direct a proper evacuation? Or did they grab their personal effects and head down the slides first?

    Fire after gear collapse at MIA

    Normalcy bias. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalcy_bias But completely unacceptable in the event of an emergency. Wonder about the reaction of the FAs in this incident. I'm not an expert, but I believe they are supposed to issue very clear, direct (loud and to the point) orders to...

    Mid-Atlantic Gathering of RVs, 6/25 @ KDMW

    Thanks for the heads-up, but kid sports activities will occupy the day on Saturday. Sounds like a fun event, though!

    Hang(e)man

    Now it makes sense. For a minute, I was thinking it was me.... probably still is me.... but at least not all me....

    CFI in shorts?

    first CFI wore slacks, white shirt and a tie. She chided me the first day I showed up in shorts - "What if we go down in a field and have to walk 10 miles through fields?! You want to be walking getin' your legs all scraped up in shorts?"... Took me until after I got my private and tired of...

    Any good landing tips while on final?

    I think you are number 8. Soon I'll be monetizing!! Then I can lose it all to you at golf.

    Any good landing tips while on final?

    So true! Take your kid to an amazingly cool place where not many people get to go (island with no way to get there other than aeroplane or boat)..... promise her ice-cream, beach, lunch at a restaurant where they pretty much get the crabs right out of the bay.... perfect pattern (oh, also...

    Any good landing tips while on final?

    Perfect landings every time just sets everyone's expectations too high. Like my kid. She's used to not feeling like we are even on the ground. Went to an airport with a shorter runway and I wanted to make sure I got the mains on the ground and got stopped in a safe distance. So the landing was...

    Foreflight 10.1 Released...

    I'm a ForeFlight sucker... :( I have FOMO since they always add the cool-kid features to the more expensive plans. I think I have performance plus or something like that... the difference between that and the lesser plan is only the cost of a gallon of gas these days anyway.

    Foreflight 10.1 Released...

    Interesting... I'll have to try that. Just would be nice if there was an option to have it appear on the plan view (the big map). Maybe config to turn it off/on if folks don't want to see it. I don't want to come across as bitching about this, by the way. After all, I'm flying an Arrow, not a...
