Got hooked 5 years ago this month paying $30 for 25 minutes at the Simcade at the mall. That made $30 bucks a month seem like a steal when I figured out I could play it at home.

here's one.....
driving to work yesterday and i witness a near HO collision and i look up to the corner of my windshield for the red R to see if i had that recorded.  Sadly i've not been playing Ah all that much this week but i could imagine a 48 hour session.

The other day I was driving in town and i caught myselft trying to read something that was to far out to read.  Instictively my left hand slipped down to activate my zoom key, lol.  I told my wife and she shook her head and called me a dork.  Good thing I didn't tell her about how an hour later I thought I saw a con in my rear view mirror.

sheeshhh...  I'm glad I'm not the only one.

I only started AH a few weeks ago. But I've had several nights (errr.. early mornings before work) while sleeping that I've had dreams of red and green boxes.

And then the other day I was talking to my brother on the phone (who's never gone near a flight sim). He said "Gotta go...tell everyone I said hello"

I replied "Roger that..."

Sorry, fellows, I gave up a part of the code book.  The other day, I asked my wife a question, got a snippy answer, and so I replied "geesh, what's with the wife ack?"

I don't remember a thing after that . . .

I too find myself using aces high lingo to much.

RGR, Copy that

Last week I told my wife I was going to go fly, she said no your not your gonna go sit in a chair, lol I guess she's right.

I told my marketing assistant at work one day that I was going to the bathroom to drop ordinance.

Me and my buddy were beer 30 after work last night chatting about the game, when these chicks come up and say "so you guys are pilots huh"............yep we sure are LOLOLOLOL.

I think my wife is right.... I'm a dork.
