![]() That's true for us damyankees. If you are from Dixie, the hangar flying starts of with "Now this ain't no ****...". Jim EDR shared these priceless pearls of wisdom: -Ohhhhh!!!! Now I get it!

We southern folk think of yankees like hemorrhoids:
Ones that come down and go back up aren't all the painful, But the ones that come down and stay down are a real pain in the ass ;-) Oops...was that off topic? Sry Larry, go have a beer at Jay's place.....oops was that advertising a felony?? Help! I can't stop! "G.R. Patterson III" wrote in message ... Jim Weir wrote: That's true for us damyankees.

Oops...was that off topic? Sry Larry, go have a beer at Jay's
place.....oops was that advertising a felony?? Help! I can't stop! This MUST be a Dighera thread. To this day, he stands (sits?) as the ONLY person in my "killfile"... As a result, I am blissfully spared his sanctimonious pontificating, and can only see the "collateral damage" caused by his posts. This thread looks like a doozy. By the way -- did I mention that our "2nd Annual Oshkosh Pool Party" will be held on Sunday, July 25th -- the Sunday before OSH '04? Everyone here is of course invited to partake in the FREE BEER we will once again be serving at poolside... By the way (required aviation content to follow): July 25 is the 20th anniversary of Svetlana Savitskaya's walk in space -- the first spacewalk, ever, for a woman. Thus, I expect that Jim Weir will be serving up free shots of vodka in her honor. ;-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

It isn't aviation but general aviation that you need to discuss. ![]() So... when is the last time that you started your plane? (there is general aviation) Now are you happy Larry? |

So... when is the last time that you started your plane? (there is general
aviation) We went for a beautiful flight into Amana, IA just three hours ago. It's not every New Year's Eve that the grass strips in Iowa are still open! It was a bit rutted, but not bad at all. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Even better would be NOT posting such promotion. I'd suggest putting up a website and promote it through your signature. maximum 4 lines and corectly seperated by "-- ". Thank you. #m -- harsh regulations in North Korea (read below link after reading the story): http://www.laweekly.com/ink/04/04/open-mikulan.php oooops ... sorry ... it happened in the USA, ya know: the land of the free. |

would be NOT posting such promotion. I'd suggest putting up a website and promote it through your signature. maximum 4 lines and corectly seperated by "-- ". I believe the Charter clearly states that this is an English-language newsgroup, Martin. You've got three misspellings in just three sentences -- a NEW Usenet record for illiteracy, and a CLEAR violation of the charter. I suggest buying a new spell-checker (they're cheap!), or, better yet, stop posting here until your English improves beyond the sixth-grade level. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I usually appreciate any post by either Martin or Jay. But there is no
reason to attack Jay for (rather mildly) plugging his hotel here. If that was all Jay did on this newsgroup, I would be at the front of the mob (probably carrying a pitchfork if all the scythes had been taken) demanding that he cease and desist. But my own opinion is that Jay doesn't plug the inn any more than the many of the rest of us talk about our own jobs. I certainly don't mind! Jay is a true member of this community, who happens to own a hotel that many of us (including myself) would like to visit one day. In part to see the rooms, but mostly to meet a good friend in person. |
