I do not subscribe to the "never push or pull on a propeller" idea, as
the prop is often the strongest part of the plane to push or pull --
after all, it is supposed to provide all of the thrust to the plane.

Caution is required, however. Always push or pull as close to the hub as
possible and make sure that the mixture is pulled and the mags "OFF."

I say, "NEVER push on a spinner," as that can crack voth the spinner and
the backplate.

An American decided to write a book about famous churches around the world. So he bought a plane ticket and took a trip to Orlando, thinking
that he would start by working his way across the USA from South to North.

On his first day he was inside a church taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read
"$10,000 per call". The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what the telephone was used for. The priest replied
that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 you could talk to God. The American thanked the priest and went along his way. Next
stop was in Atlanta. There, at a very large cathedral, he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it. He wondered if this was
the same kind of telephone he saw in Orlando and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was.

She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 he could talk to God. "O.K., thank you," said the American. He then
travelled to Indianapolis, Washington DC, Philadelphia,Boston and New York. In every church he saw the same golden telephone with the same
"$10,000 per call" sign under it. The American, upon leaving Vermont decided to travel to SCOTLAND to see if SCOTS had the same phone. He
arrived in SCOTLAND, and again, in the first church he entered, there was the same golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read "40
pence per call." The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign. "Father, I've travelled all over America and I've seen
this same golden telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to Heaven, but in the US the price was $10,000 per call. Why
is it so cheap here?" The priest smiled and answered, "You're in SCOTLAND now, son - it's a local call".

"Of course he is, Mum. He's thrifty, doesn't drink or smoke, has a very nice wife and three well-behaved children."
