Goat is just the right thing for gyros


I'm ready to sacrifice something for an intermittent radio issue.

What's the group suggest for radios?

I have cats and a guinea pig. I can buy others, if need be.

Definitely a cat. Attributed to Albert Einstein:

You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull
his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you
understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send
signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that
there is no cat.

Speaking as a Ham Radio operator, I suggest a pig.

To appease the Islamics, shouldn't that pig be kosher?

Yes, and after it has been sacrificed on a 200 degree fire, with plenty of
moisture and hickory chips present for 12 hours, it should be pulled apart,
limb to limb.

While cleaning up from the sacrifice, if the pork that is pulled happens to
fall into some tomato product with spices, or some vinegar and spices, do
NOT put it into your mouth. g

Some hushpuppies and slaw will help to keep your experience balanced, and
make the sacrifice worthy.

Wash the flight deck aftwards.

Which has, apparently, made them the *butt* of many jokes. It is only
natural that the sky god would want to horn in.

But maybe there was a better reason for sacrificing the goats. The way
I herd it, the maintenance crew came out to find that someone had been
chewing on the wiring of the Boeing plane. They lined up all the
suspects: the goats, a Brahman bull, and some chickens. The only
witness was a rabbit, so they trotted him down the line. The rabbit
stopped at the goats and nodded at them. The goats nervously claimed
that they didn't do it, but the crewman said, "Hare's looking at you,
kid."

And now, since I will be banned for a few days -- see you all
later. :-)

AC 43.14, p. 8976(b)

1 A&P = 4 CFIs.
1 CFI = 4 cows.
1 cow = 4 goats.
1 goat = 4 chickens.
1 chicken = 4 rats.
1 rat = 4 trolls.

While we're on the funny things foreign airlines do. From Wikipedia...

"The origins of Olympic Airways was in 1930, when the first predecessor
airline was established. The airline was called Icarus but after just a few
months went bankrupt due to financial problems and limited Greek interest in
air transport."

They named an airline after Icarus and it failed. What a surprise.
