2Lane,

Love the pie chart -- I wish I could sit in on one of your briefings sometimes!!!

Mark

Mark, the ironic thing is I have heard people say exactly the opposite more than once .

[Twolanerider]

 My voices never tell me if they love me or not,

You poor bastard.

You poor bastard.

Exactly.  Maybe if I sat in on one of your briefings, it'd cheer me up?

[Twolanerider]

It would get crowded if you sit in 2LR's briefs while he is still wearing them, IMHO.

Dammit.  Had a perfectly good terrible thing written there.  Then had to self-delete because you know D00d is out there somewhere.

And the voices would commune on a higher plain (which is different than commute on a higher plane).

d00d is everywhere, like Superman, but without the cape & red boots & I don't think kryptonite bothers him either but I'm not sure.

I commuted on a higher plane last week.  Nice almost new Airbus - cabin was set at 42 degrees & in Coach meat hooks were only $1.50 an hour. In First they were complimentary of course.

Probably would have been considered bad form to ask a seat mate if he/she/it wanted to snuggle for warmth....

A nice lady, slept in her window seat from the time I sat down until we landed with a nice big bump & a strong rightward swaying/careening veer that did not leave the runway but greatly scared a nearby group of geese feeding.  She did not snore, my light overhead did not work, so reading was difficult in spite of her not snoring.  5:30 am flight - the glamorous traveling life & all....

I absolutely hate flying commercial airlines again.  There's just nothing good about the experience.

Everything about it is cheaper, and that has made it worse than it was from my early days - the 70's.  Private/charter is a lot better but none of that now for me.  Even the local farmer shooing his cows off the runway has a certain ambiance....

If given the choice I'll choose cargo nets or shoehorned between some loadmaster's palettes before taking a commercial hop.  It just sucks.  Only thing worse than the planes is the airports.  And the only thing worse than the airports is the planes.

In the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off the principal, Mr. Rooney, is riding the bus and a kid says "I bet you never smelled a real school bus before".  Planes smell like that now.
