Am I just sick or does it affect others the same way?


Yes.

Look in the Yellow Pages for "Diamond-a-holics..." The number can be
found between "Crack-a-holics" and "Dragster-a-holics."

Your doctor will just tell you to take a couple of 1-26's and call him
in the morning.

....and it might work: distances SEEM* longer in a 1-26...you have to
earn those kilometers...

* The corollary is taken from a marriage counselor debunking a
commonly held myth:
"Married men don't live longer than single men...it just
SEEMS longer." ;-)

P.S.: Yes, I'm happily married: to my crew!

....for now.

I've kinda' got my eye on the MG33SL for sale on Wings and Wheels.
Very pretty, 33 to one. Not down there with a 1-26, but more sporting
than my Speed Astir.

That MG33SL is a wonderful glider !
That's me flying it in the last SSA Sailplane Directory...
Go for it ! But don't fly it too fast...
