Let me know when you get to the really advanced topics:

1. Proper thigh slapping / hootin' / hollerin' technique for best
cruising speed.

2. Home recipes for Whoopass (hydration fluid of glider champions).

3. How to fly through the trees and only lose half your horizontal
tail. (Hey, I don't even see the Terrible Dactyl on the faculty!)

4. 19 juggling exercises to practice after a landout.

5. The all important "Cold Front Come Hither" incantation and dance.

Such a comedian. I need lessons on all of these. Unfortunately, that
is a weekend that I have a previous engagement and can no make the
seminar, otherwise it would probably be worth a roadtrip.

Maybe I will even get my glider out and fly this spring on the ridges.
