Now imagine all this aggravating Chicago-area traffic in the air around you.

We just returned from a quick, overnight flight to Wisconsin, to attend
a holiday gathering of family and friends, and I simply couldn't help
but remark on the incredible utility and convenience of GA.

In 90 minutes (as opposed to 5.5 hours) we were parked on the ramp in
Racine, plugging Atlas in for the night. Twenty minutes later, we were
sipping egg nog and enjoying the warmth of the holiday spirit with
Mary's family.

Today, we slept in late, enjoyed a late brunch with friends, and flew
home in 100 minutes. The kids were back home, playing with their new
games, 20 minutes after we landed.

3 hours and 10 minutes of enjoyable, XM-radio-enhanced flight, versus
11 hours of mind-numbing driving through aggravating Chicago-area
traffic. God almighty, I can't understand for the life of me why there
isn't an airplane in every American garage...

Yeah, it's a good one.

Strangely, no one has blamed the failed Bush Administration, or the war
in Iraq, for ANYTHING...yet.

It'll come...it *always* comes...

That's because they're this:

Self canceling.

Symbiotic:

dependent upon and receives reinforcement, whether beneficial or
detrimental, from the other.
