Actually the answer to this would be yes, IF the request was an official one made for an official purpose. In this case, it was an obvious attempt at humor and being a smart ass as I was, I supplied it. Bad ju ju in case you need to know :-)) I've also heard the story with another outcome. The cop laughed and said "either slow down or gain altitude" and let the guy off. Margy Hi Margy; Hope you and Ron had a great holiday and will be having a great new year as well. Thanks, we had an interesting holiday as I managed to get sick for the 5 days preceding our New Year's brunch so poor Ron had to clean, shop and cook. I managed to get well enough to clean up, but he got stuck with most of the work. I still sound like a toad, so every day I get a good ribbing from the docents. My job really has some aspects of hanging out with some of the more colorful characters here, but in person :-). At least most of them tell good flying lies :-). I'm just starting to gear up for the June Fly-In at work, http://www.nasm.si.edu/becomeapilot/ which requires way more meetings than needed, but ... and poor Ron I think I'm not going to invite him to fly to the fly-in this year for the first time so he can have more time to clean and cook for the pilots party afterwards. He should never have learned to make his now famous fried turkey! Margy " ... The woman just stared at him and you could see the anger melt away from her face. I've never seen someone change like that. She just smiled at him and said; "I'm sorry, and thank you so much. You've just made my day for me". Best comeback I've ever heard!! That is a good one! You guys do a wonderful job down there at the Museum. It's a fabulous place. The one complaint I had on our visit there some years ago were the outrageous prices of the hot dogs the vendors were charging outside on the street, but I was one hungry camper and those dogs smelled SO good I had to have one.....make that two I think!! :-)) Tell Ron I sympathize with him on the cooking. I've learned to cook fairly well myself. My wife has been down for many months now with a terrible Sciatic Nerve issue and I've taken over the kitchen duties. She says at least I haven't killed anyone with my cooking yet. Best of luck with the Fly-In. Dudley I -- Dudley Henriques |
