: The beauty of not drinking is that I can fly anytime.

I fly all the time. Sometimes I use an airplane.

You mean, if I don't drink, I can go up right now! Wish I could, but the snow on the runway and in front of the hanger
does not want me to. I think I need a drink...


Pshaw! We've been in the deep freeze here for weeks (I can tell --
anything above 0 fahrenheit feels okay to me, now), but we're still
flying every couple of days.

And, come to think of it, we're still drinking a beer or two pretty
regularly, too.

All things in moderation -- except flying, which must be done as often
as possible...

I mean, literally, there is two feet of snow between the ol' 172 and the
runway. I'd have to go 'rent' a plane to be able to go up....

....crying in my beer...

Well, I've shoveled at least that much from in front of my hangar this
year.

Of course it depends: How far is it from the 172 to the runway?

Maybe a 1/4 mile. And then there is the runway itself, covered shin deep anyway...

We live on 4n0..

Crikey! You're right -- you're not going *anywhere*...

Sorry to hear it. Maybe you should build your own "Mighty Grape" that
includes a snow plow?
