No. But I am controlled by intellect rather than hormones.

The dangerous people are those with more testosterone than brains, be it due
to a high level of testosterone or a low level of brains. The problem is more
common in men because of higher levels of the hormone (without a
correspondingly higher level of brains), but it occasionally is a problem in
exceptionally stupid women as well.

Assuming this most recent post wasn't sarcasm at length, we also were
treated to a nice description of how he almost didn't clear the trees.

And this group says Well Done? Oh the Humanity!


Exactly.

Getting out of your bedroom and walking to the local airfield to go
for a fly will immensely increase your fitness, your knowledge and
your self esteem.


But if I did that, what excuse would the boys' club here use to dismiss my
postings then?

Again, since we only have your word and no further evidence that you are
human, it has nothing to do with you.

Uh. 30 pound over is burned off in about 30 minutes.


Unfortunately, take-off is over in 30 seconds.

Nope, sorry. You're controlled by an idiocy directed by nothing.

They wouldn;t have one. And the word is "reason" not "excuse"

Or if you hit the ground just beyond the runway in the real world because you
took off overweight.
