would be hard to make the case that the PPL has a greater practical
utility than say, learning to ride a horse. PPL flying is a niche
hobby, and its hard to imagine that would change anytime soon.

Hmmm. I've spent the last 13 years flying my family from coast to
coast, Canada to Mexico, on vacations ranging from overnight to two
weeks in duration. I've flown hundreds of times in support of my
business(es) during that time as well.

Leaving from Iowa City I can be in Chicago for brunch, St Louis for

Madoon, the boycott is broken, next thing he'll be here for Cubs
games.

dinner, and home by the 10 o'clock news. Do *that* on a horse!

Although personal flying will never be as rock-solid reliable as a
Greyhound bus (due primarily to my own budget and equipment
limitations), to say that the PPL has little practical value is
inaccurate.

Unfortunate that the GA economic powerhouse has crippled the Chicago
economy, though...

He's sarcastically referring to our moratorium on visiting Chicago
since King Daley ripped up Meigs Field. We haven't been back since
-- we won't go back till Daley is out of office.

Does he have an heir to inherit his office?

Waht's it to you, fjukktard?



Al you have to do is get an older copy of MSFS/



Bertie

Does he have an heir to inherit his office?

Sadly, yes. This from Wikipedia:

"Daley is married to Margaret Daley, who was diagnosed with breast
cancer in 2002 and is still undergoing treatment. They have four
children: Nora, Patrick, Elizabeth and Kevin. Patrick Daley enlisted
in the 82nd Airborne after not being able to handle West Point and
attending other schools but strangely has not been deployed to Iraq
while the rest of Fort Bragg has."

So, I suppose we'll have a King Patrick Daley ruling Chicago in a few
years...

:-(

Oh, well. We've really learned to enjoy Kansas City, St Louis, and
Minneapolis.
