    Limit POA use

    I've noticed over the years that internet forum activity slows considerably in the evenings and on the weekends.

    The real entry-level jobs are disappearing

    Most of us don't get our dream job. You have to take what you can get, if you can't get what you want. Maybe it is time to look at something that is outside of aviation. You can always work it on the side, if it means so much to you. Bottom line, there are a lot of people in the same...

    "No Officer, I'm not High"

    It is interesting how the UK press comes here and looks for the best in America to report on, while our own press looks for the worst.

    Guitar & Bass Players / Any band members?

    I bought a Peavey Raptor and a Marshall amp, neither high dollar items, at a garage sale for twenty dollars. The woman said it was her husband's. I have to wonder if he knew she was selling it. I messed with it a couple of weeks. I wanted the amp more than the guitar, but she was selling them...

    [NA] Need a new house thermostat

    I have the nest. It is good, but if you don't walk past it occasionally, it thinks that you aren't home any goes to a lower temperature. My wife has had that happen while she works in her office at home. If I'm home, I move around enough that it thinks there is somebody home. I spend most of the...

    Guitar & Bass Players / Any band members?

    At the risk of getting strafed, I'm a ukulele player. I play mostly 70s and 80s rock and CW. Also Puerto Rican Plena. GEICO, if you haven't been here, check it out. http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/ They have 800,000 songs you can search by song, artist, or genre.

    Ignore list.

    I don't have anyone on my ignore list, but there are a few that I just don't read their posts. I like to have the option to read, or not to read.

    Don't age, it isn't worth it. I'm falling apart

    That's about what time I go to the bathroom for the last time for the night. I get up somewhere between 8 and 9 in the morning. Early enough that it isn't too hot to go running.

    CFI depression

    If you were waiting for someone to finally tell you what you wanted to hear, better start looking for a new place to work right now, because with that attitude, this one isn't going to last much longer anyway. If you take a job with somebody, then you do it their way.

    Don't age, it isn't worth it. I'm falling apart

    We like it down here. We have a nice little apartment in Old San Juan.

    Don't age, it isn't worth it. I'm falling apart

    64, but still moving pretty well. I run, swim, and bicycle, but none of them very seriously. I do have some vision problems that keep me from flying, but they don't seem to bother me enough to do anything else I want to do. One thing though, I live in San Juan, PR during the winter and we don't...

    What inspired you to get into flying?

    Like many here, my dad. My dad got his private pilot license, but didn't fly after he got it. I guess that he couldn't justify the expense. When I got to be a teenager, he pushed me to get a pilot license and my A&P. I flew and worked on planes then, off and on, for over 46 years, with a big...

    The Interview

    Eventually we will watch it. We watch a lot of stupid movies. If we didn't, we wouldn't watch much.

    Some doctors are morons.

    I'm on the board of directors for a non-profit. Not a hospital, and not a paid position either. Non-profit does not mean, doesn't make enough money to pay the employees. Our non-profit makes good money, and our employees are one of our most important resources. They are compensated well. I don't...

    Happy Veterans Day

    I'll bet you are right. I don't know what the temp is in Nebraska, but it was 22 degrees with the wind blowing this morning. A little cold for standing out in a parking lot, waiting to get fed.

    Some doctors are morons.

    And there isn't here? My doctor is scheduled out four months for a physical. Two weeks to see a specialist, and three months out for minor surgery on my ear.

    Happy Veterans Day

    I'll say thanks to all the vets, and to all those who are thanking the vets, you are welcome. My brother tried to get me to go to the HyVee store to get a free breakfast, but I passed. I told him that I stood in the chow line waiting to get fed enough to last me a lifetime. He texted me later...

    Folding Bicycle

    These responses have been a lot of help. I did actually find one place in San Juan that sells Dahon and Brompton folding bicycles, so that might be the ticket. I'm not about spending more then I have to for things, but I'm used to paying for a good bicycle. The reason that I want a folding...

    Folding Bicycle

    That might be what I end up doing. Or I might find something down there. Just checking out options. Mostly I want to know what people have and how they like them, and it looks like there is a lot of them to consider from the responses.
