You sipped a cold one and then went flying? Are you sure you want to
admit that here Jay?

Uh, that would be a cold soda pop. I'm crazy, but I'm not stupid.

I've been accused of being crazy and stupid and many worse things
(some might even be true), but anyone who thinks I'd stick Jay in my
airplane after he's been drinking... and then take him inverted?!?!
Sheeeesh!

They don't know me or my airplane very well (or at all, actually). I
love my airplane 'WAY too much to take a stupid chance like that. So
far, I'm batting zero out of *many* on the pukin' pax-meter and I
fully intend to maintain that record.

Ya'll do realize that, if Jay *had* lost it, it would have hit me in
the back of the head, run down my neck, and soaked the 'chute? Does
that sound like fun to anybody???
