No problem. My wife ALWAYS finds the place to put all that stuff. I just
have to hide all of it before she puts it there :-))




Aaargh!

We have a shelf at work for guys to bring back crap form tourist traps.
It's full of eiffel towers, burros, I (HEART) this place or that..

I used to be good friends with the Chief Stew (gorgeous girl BTW)from
the old Capitol Airways (DC8 charter operation out of Smyrna Ga. She
would bring back from every trip a virtual ton of those little bottles
of booze unless they were headed for Shannon. The Irish always drank the
plane dry :-)). I probably had one of the world's largest collections of
the little guys. It's amazing what you pick up at different places when
you're full time in aviation :-)
