:noid Wait until you are 80 years old, pushing 81 real hard, then you will understand about being afraid to go to sleep!! Don't know about you, but I want to be awake when it happens to me, just so I can remember it! LOL

Being in love is the greatest feeling ever.


Best observation to come out of our Arlo, ever.

Go for it, Earl.

:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: A update on my emotional state! A week ago yesterday, a woman I love very much, broke our engagement and gave me back the ring I had given  her...as the week wore on and I fell deeper and deeper into a nose dive, I knew that at my age, that was never going to be another woman in my life! Then, out of the blue today, she called, said she had made a terriable mistake and wanted her ring back!!!! Of course, I have been on cloud nine all afternoon and evening, but now I do have a real problem, I was so upset that night she gave me the ring back, I have no idea what I did with it!!! can't find it anywhere in this house or my truck....800.00 bucks down the drain, so now will have to buy another one, just hope she takes it! LOL

Earl I flew many times with you, maybe under USAF77 I dont remember I quit playing, maybe it was under bombrich. Im not kid anymore either. This lady has been a bit of a roller coaster for you. I hope your sure about things. In the end a man does what a man does. Hell, what am I schooling you for?

I wish you the best with the lady. And many more flight leads on B17s. "Throw in some TU-2S missions and I might come back". ;)

:airplane: If you have never flamed my tail up until now, then you are the only one in this game who hasn't! My reflex's are shot now, so I don't fly fighters hardly at all, just good ole bombers...things happen a lot slower in them, so I can cope with "stuff"!

Earl, a thought but you should reach out to local elementary, middle, junior and senior high schools and ask if they need a speaker. Develop a couple speeches, based on your life stories. One is about planes, another history, etc. They will ask you how much you charge. If the answer is nothing, likely you will get some hits.

It is not the end all but clearly passing along these stories will help you and be of value to these young students. Maybe even reach out to local colleges that have ROTC depts, or history teachers.

Just a thought....

That's a spectacular idea!  You have a special gift for this ET.
:headscratch: I have tried this already a couple of years ago at a local high school! Problem was, the students, at least most, had no idea what I was talking about! I tried a simple theme, filled with funny antidotes, even had some aircraft models with me, but the one thing they all wanted to know about was just how an aircraft flies! That was easy, as all I had to do then was explain and demonstrate the fundamentals of flight, be it a J-3 Cub or a Boeing 747. I think that was some success and I usually had to stay an extra 30 minutes for students who wanted to ask me questions in person.
One day, I had a rather un-ruly bunch, seem to want to talk instead of listening! So I ask a question: Do you know who that blonde headed lady is sitting over there? I explained that it was Barbara and she did not have a clue what was going on, she just knew she was near me and that was all that mattered to her! Suddenly, a hush fell over the crowd of students and you could have heard a "pin" drop! I explained to them her medical problem and how it was effecting her and me! I explained there was no cure! I spoke for about 15 minutes on her plight and after I concluded my remarks, I think every student in there came by Barbara and gave her a big hug and I got to see her smile for the first time in a couple of years! That smile was worth millions to me, as it brought back memories of better times for she and I.
While it is true that I have found a new soul mate, she understands that Barbara will always have a special compartment in my heart.
Blue Skies and wind at my back and wish that for all!!!
