Yeah, all of us here on the newsgroups decided to have a huge memorial

day
weekend fly-in at Palo Alto. Might do an even bigger one on the 4th.


Actually some complaints could/should be filed with the following:

A little thin skinned are we? Be careful what you ask for since you might
just get it. More than likely, for every one person who complains about
aircraft noise while using company computers there are hundreds more who are
making positive aviation posts. Cut off one and you have to cut off them
all.

Chuckle! That works, too. So does "a waste of perfectly good oxygen"

I remeber a while back a developer put houses along one side of a hog farm,
only to then start complaining that the hog farm smelled like, well, a hog
farm. It all got dragged through the courts and in this case the farmer who
had been in business for years won out. Little sympathy for the people who
complained.

The same should be true of people who build or buy near airports, there is a
strong possibility of aircraft.

As does "Time to skim the gene pool".

Let you? You need to straighten her out. The only thing she should say
is "have fun, Dear .. what time would you like dinner to be ready?"

Me, my wife let me go flying with a female pilot friend on Sunday.

LET you? Wow, you have it bad, if your relationship is such that you have
to get permission!


Oh, I don't know, Jim.

If I wanted to go flying with another woman, I think it would be wise of me
to ask Mary first!

You're right.

In fact, in reaction to your suggestion I have just severely chastised
myself for posting on company time, and had myself sign a letter of
reprimand that will be placed in my permanent file.

One more transgression like that, and I'll be looking for another job!
