I thought compressor stalls at FL450 during Viper FCFs was sporting, as was landing min fuel in a snow storm after diverting. Then again, intramural crud at the O'Club bar on friday nights was certainly more physical. Confess now. At least once you must have snuck into the men's room and read the rules on the wall over the urinal didn't you? I think I can hear Rasimus snorting and mumbling something best left unwritten, all the way over here. Everybody's got their own little sack of rocks to tote around. Maybe he's singing Monty Python's "Lumberjack" song. Unbloody likely. But, can we talk about this parrot you sold me?
