Having a career where I sometimes have to wash my hands before I pee, my employment depends on investors and investments and whether I like them or not is usually irrelevant. Competition is fierce between competitors and that is why some of us would rather dig ditches or pound nails. For an INVESTOR to criticize other investors for investing shows me that investor probably was set-up in success. The fossils and artifacts here all have strong feelings and opinions and we all like to vent. Perhaps 1 investor need to find a cub and go on another long cruise and let your investments do their thing. I will miss being able to read your jokes. And I might add shooting a weapon in a training/practice facility may give you a rush of self-reliance not based on other peoples labor

I took this early some Saturday morning sometime between 1998 and 2010 somewhere in Tenn after a short crew rest going from somewhere to Fort Campbell to somewhere. Someone took the seats out of the AF vans and we drank beer in the hotel parking lot, right up to 12 hrs prior to takeoff of course. Was perfect timing in a fast food parking lot of a condensation-trail and the rising sun

25 yrs and a couple days, since 'The Storm'. Before that went-down there were months of preparation. One day the news media was 'at the gate'. There were a lot of 'locals' where aircrews were getting current, and the planes shook out after repair. "The Pattern Was Full", so to speak. The dutiful reporter reported "missions are coming and going every few minutes!!" Eventually the corridor between Europe and Mid East became a busy freeway in the sky. The Military in general, Air Force particularly, and Airlift specifically did such a fine job that afterward the 'bean-counters' restructured the whole DOD. Of course we had a huge technology advantage and worldwide help. The news media has always been biased, they are just bloggers anyway? A civilized society must have an independent media. Politics needs to be exposed and called out. GWB is a good example, and the guy on the street, are concrete examples of media dutifully doing their thing! And of course they even have assistance from those so humiliated. I say its time to stop faking the 'O'. And I don't mean orgasm.

November Rain in Janurary

"November Rain", by 'Guns an Roses'

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same

'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain

We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain

But lovers always come and lovers always go
And no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away

If we could take the time
To lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me
Then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time...on your own
Do you need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time... on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you

Sometimes I need some time...on my own
Sometimes I need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time... on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain

Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

I am 'that guy' who has to explain his jokes to people with blank stares. Yesterday my first, anywhere, blog post didn't get much of a reaction. So the title "Canadian Father Caught..." was purposely misleading, hoping someone would be pleasantly surprised (for a change). The video is of a 4-yr old girl taken on her first aerobatic airplane ride by her dad. 'Pure Joy' was most people's reaction. Either there was truly no interest, my link didn't work or there was truly no interest.

If you want to take a short airplane ride from your rocking chair and witness the gift of a loving father to his thrilled little girl, check this out: FIRST AEROBATIC FLIGHT LEA
