I've been on once. Formatting was weird. Layout was weird. Posters were weird.

From what I've heard they believe tennis players shouldn't be allowed to grunt

After today's excitement - the Clown Posse crowd doesn't seem so bad.

I flew (in my Cherokee) a friend up to his vineyard this morning. On the way home - I noticed my right shoe was covered in .... BRAKE FLUID... I had just had some maintenance done on the brakes - and well, they broke.

I'm headed home and I'm pretty certain I don't have brakes on my right side. We have two runways - short and long. I'll need the long.

The next thing I know - a Southwest Airlines 737 performs a GO AROUND (nearly unheard of in a commercial plane) and they need to close my LONG runway for 15 minutes (long story about why - suffice it to say it is the rarest of rare conditions).

I'm circling - getting more nervous - it's 95 degrees - felt like 150.

Finally, It's my turn. I landed on the #s and was able to get it stopped before the end of the runway and was able to get it off the runway - had someone tow me back to my spot.

THEN... I found a dead mouse in my hangar.

THEN... I drank a beer - or two.

Enough fun for one day - I believe.

Where's that third beer?

....so sorry I missed your Birthday, sounds like it was fun.

I'm back to work for a while now, not much time for FR or anything else.

[Syncro]

You lucked out, they went easy on you.

Good landing.

[Dashing Dasher]

Darn!

We sure missed you.

I'm still up for the trip to Hollister when we both have some time again. I'm thinking October!?

Are you going for the Garlic this weekend?

[Dashing Dasher]

What every HANGAR needs!

LOL!!

[proud American in Canada]

LOL!

Happy anniversary, DD. :)

[Dashing Dasher]

Thanks!

Sorry you missed the cake!

[SweetCaroline]

Are you going for the Garlic this weekend? ....no, we have a huge Italian Family picnic to go to!

[Dashing Dasher]

I'd rather go to your Italian Family Picnic!
I bet the food's better!

;-)

[SweetCaroline]

....I love how the Italians celebrate, in fact, I love how the Italians live!! When I went to Italy 4 years ago, I didn't want to leave, they have great time living, politics be damned.

I'd go back in a minute if the plane flights weren't sooooo long. Next time it will be a straight shot and first class, the last time was a tour we won!

I just dropped-by and looked at the Klown Palace...

Appears to be the internet equivalent to a half-way house for a bunch of sick & twisted control-freaks, probably made exponentially worse by self-medicating if ya know what I mean ;-)
