You guys are lucky in one way... can you imagine what level of control i have to maintain when my job is to fly everyday in a real aircraft?!?!?!?!

ok...i admit, once I was right over the runway threshold at 2000 field and asked for landing. TWR answered:' clear to land, expedite because Delta is coming in'... hehehehe awsome... I took control from my student and his next word were :'Yoohooohooo'.

Hummm... any FAA employee to 'help me'?

When driving your eye gets instantly drawn to any dot in the sky.
You start to think its ok to squeak at the boss like you do to Pyro...

ok whew, Mighty1, I feel better. Sorta, I've not gunned out of the sunroof yet.(In front of anyone!) Not yet!

I did explain to a friend about Ace higH last night during the Pacers vs Laker game and found myself in a tight spin with no tail section. My son is not planning to forgive me for some time. He's a big Pacer fan of course. I'm a big bad traitor for not maintaining consintration.

Was exiting the freeway, clicked off the auto pilot...er...cruise control, and expected to decelerate more quickly because of the "new prop drag".

word to the wise, don't try the sissors manuever with an F4U (cop) on your 6...... not only do you get a ticket, but they also make you do alot of tests to make sure you weren't flyin, er driving, intoxicated.

I catch myself saying 'rgr that' at work and one time the full compliance "rgr copy". Here is the ultimate in patheticism when your wife or in my case fiance is talking to you while on the pc and you hit your RW talk key when replying to her, My whole squad heard me say 'yes honey' to them boy did that take alot of explaining.

humm once as I was driving my boat through the bayou I saw 2 beavers at a 2 o'clock and 11 o'clock and yelled cons!!! 2 and 11 bust out the 50cal....too bad I was only armed with my sks.

Then I got into the whole discusion of how the beavers are undermodled and the boats turn rate is off etc. etc.

LOL.

In the car:

I keep looking for the rudders at my car to trim it.

I tend to drop my fuel tanks before making a turn.

I try to refuel my car by standing at the iron plates at gas stations and refuse to get out before getting "weapon reload complete" message.

When I see some other car approaching me from my 6 at the faster speed I use split s and get him burned.

And 1 advice, do not try to get trucks with slow 6 approach.

With my girlfriend:

I told her that her tits are uber and overmodeled.

I keep trying to get her by surprice from her 6oc, avoiding boring and frustrating HO.

Normally when we walk we keep nice formation with as close distance as 200 ft.
