Just for fun....

"Gee honey, some guys from the tractor board are going up to Oshkosh next year for a week...Can I go?".........(faint murmuring heard from wife in the other room)......................"Oh, and there's these 2 blondes that are planning on going too BTW".................."But honey, they know all about planes and it was their idea".......................and then the fight started.

Y'all ever heard of the "zippered spine syndrome", that's when you want to go somewhere with your buddies and your wife makes you remove your spine and put it in a felt lined wooden box before you go...

Don't worry Kyle! Bindian and I will vouch for ya!

I think a lot of you pilots and wannabe pilots (like myself) would enjoy a book that I have. In 1966, my mother bought the book, Glacier Pilot by Beth Day, for me. It's a biography of Bob Reeve who had been an early pilot in Alaska and in 1966 still ran Reeve Aleutian Airways. Mother bought the book in Anchorage and took it to Bob Reeve and he autographed it with a nice little message.

That's neat, Bird! Can't buy such as that.

I asked my wife if I could go to Oshkosh,,
she said "where is it?"..
I said "I don't know"..
She said "what is it?",,
I said "I don't know"..
She said "why do you want to go to it?"..
I said "these two blonde pilots and Kyle that has no spine is going"..
She said "Okay.. but take pictures of Kyle"..
It's nice to be married to a blonde.. Lou

Tell y'all what, it is getting pretty darn warm on these parking lots! Seems the heat makes people "dumber" too:laughing: Getting 6 hours of decent sleep a day now:thumbsup:
