Albuquerque Soaring Club seeks pilots

Mark -- You apology is accepted, and I offer mine to you. I didn't
read it as a joke, but if that is what it was, I appologize. Sorry
also for my apparent lack of humor.

A group hug is in order! Maybe a sing-a-long!

"Apparent Lack of humor" provides support for my thesis that the X-C
glider community has all the fun-factor of a dirt clod.

Thermal well? Yes I do, but I have largely given up circling for
going really fast straight ahead, being an OLCSlut and all. Do you
circle well?

BBQ Beef: Hoggly Wogglies mixed Ray's and a splash of Cabernet if
available

Salmon: I will never divulge my secrets!

Teryaki Beef: Soy, garlic, molasses, red wine, hoisin, mustard,
ginger, cilantro


Chicken: Goya citrus with blood oranges

Any favorites for kangaroo, Jim?

Can anyone recommend well-priced quality red wines?

YO! Diver Dudes -
I was looking at the B/S ratio map on Dr. Jork's bitemap when it
struck me. All them dangle diver dudes that used to dive dangle
divers daily don't have the social skills workshop forum they used to
have like when they were trying to use their feet as undercarriage.
They just don't get to hang out on the edge of jagged cliffs and chew
on each others necks like they used to while waiting for the wind to
stop blowing the wrong way. Gone too are the fistacuff furballs that
littered the landing zones. Now that they fly big buck Saleplanes,
that part of their life is left wanting. Their tanks need to be
vented. Here's a couple of suggestions.
Off season poker tourneys might be fun, but there is no .igc log
available to accurately handicap (as in adjust the B/S ratio) the
players. Another thing we should consider is off season boxing
tournaments, with actual money involved, to release this pent up
swoopage. Hey! Now, THAT could easily lead to sponsorship and other
perks. Think about it......Imagine entering the pattern and announcing,
"This is the K-Mart, Texaco, Hooters, Coca Cola, Neosporin, IBM,
Advil, BigWind/BossCloud/AlphaNumeric SuperDuperSuperShip, entering
downwind for runway 29---get all that crap outta my way - - NOW!" That
would be SOOooo cool. Who wouldn't like that? Unfortunately, with
real money involved, (don't forget the perks!!!) the NEXT off season
would then probably have to escalate from boxing to paintball. Or
perhaps just some good ol' fashioned raiding and looting parties.
Anything to help cease the internalized fuming. Too bad that while
announcing all that on the radio that poor sot squeaking back to the
airport on a marginal straight in glide wasn't heard and was forced to
take out some runway lights....

Gotta go paint some cool sponsor stuff on my CellPlane and dig up some
frap rabbit recipies.

I did lots of other important stuff too.

P.S. a special "Howdy!" to Mr. No S. Mucho in NM.

This internecine catfight between US clubs is all well and good, but
what I want to know is, how are our european overlords planning to
jigger the rules to give themselves a chance at breaking into the top
5?

The barbecue idea sounds better than the bar room brawl.
How does your club fare with shrimp and scallops on the barbecue?
What are the favorite marinades for chicken or beef?

.... Speaking of which. LVVSA on Roach DL this weekend. Auto tows,
ritual sacrifices to the lift Gods, BBQ, telling lies around the
campfire, etc.. I can't wait!!
