Flying on someone else's nickle AND working for UW is probably an
acceptable reason for leaving NC. If the offer included season tickets
to the football games it would have been a no brainer, but was
withdrawal from ACC basketball painful? Is there some form of 12 step
program to help?

You do know the Heels lost to the Hokies last night, don't you, or are
you so deep into Big 10 sports it didn't matter?

We flew commercial to Palm Beach last month, the return trip was via
Charlotte. We had a short layover there, just enough time to get a
bite to eat. We were served, beside our sandwiches, a deep fried
breaded dill pickle. We knew we were almost home!

You left the Triangle for Madison -- how can we trust your judgement

OUCH, but touche!
Yes I did, I'm originally from WI. Loved the weather down there in NC
but it wasn't "home". Bought my first airplane, an Ercoupe, and kept
it at Horace Williams (IGX) in Chapel Hill. Had a K-6 with the North
Carolina Soaring Association.
But got offered a job at my alma mater that involved some flying and
couldn't pass it up.

No, I don't own a snow blower!
