Due to the recent loss of a deeply beloved furry member of our family and
the concomitant training requirements of a new puppy, Gail and Jim will not be going to Oshkosh this year. First time in twelve years for Gail; first time in thirty-three years for Jim. We have a room in the newly air-conditioned Taylor Hall reserved for most of the Show. I don't want to make a penny on it. If anybody wants this room and is willing to pay me what I have on deposit ($50 or so) and take over the "payments", then give me an email First "regular" in these newsgroups gets it. I'll filter down to the unknowns later. Paypal is the preferred method of payment. Jim (sniffle, bawl, poor damned puppydog didn't deserve her ultimate end ...) |

You're missing OSH '06 to train a puppy? No way. This *has* to be an imposter, scamming Jim's email address...right? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

First time in twelve years for Gail; first time in thirty-three years for Jim. What sort of training takes 6 months and doesn't allow a week's vacation? Something doesn't smell right here, and it's not the dog. George Patterson Coffee is only a way of stealing time that should by rights belong to your slightly older self. |

OK, so we care as much for our furry family as we do for each other.
Airplanes and dogs have equal weight in our eyes. And airplanes don't sleep on your feet on cold nights and lick your face awake in the morning. Sorry, Jay, there is more to life than cold aluminum airframes and hard steel engines. No, this is not an imposter scamming my addy, and if you had half a heart you'd understand how bad I'm hurting from my loss. Jim You're missing OSH '06 to train a puppy? No way. This *has* to be an imposter, scamming Jim's email address...right? |

Some of us have other loves and interests, such as motorcycles and guns (in my case) and puppies apparently in Jim's case. I'm as surprised that you can't understand that as you are that Jim is skipping OSH. It is only an airshow for crying out loud. And it will be there next year... Matt |

It took me years to get over the last critter that I lost. If one of my critters needed expensive medical attention, and the only way I could pay for it was to sell the plane. The plane would be gone. I'm feeling for you, buddy. --- Jay Masino -- __!__ Jay and Teresa Masino ___(_)___ http://www.JayMasino.com ! ! ! http://www.OceanCityAirport.com http://www.oc-Adolfos.com |

If we stay away that long, though, some of them give us an "do I know you?" look when we get back. We just have to make sure they have clean litter boxes and adequate food and water before we go.

I guess they're gone or I didn't make the short list.
I'll go tease the dog on the bed some more and get mauled. |

Sorry, Jay, there is more to life than cold aluminum airframes and hard
steel engines. No, this is not an imposter scamming my addy, and if you had half a heart you'd understand how bad I'm hurting from my loss. Well, Jim, I've cried a thousand tears for my dogs over the years. When we had to put Princess down last year, we pulled the kids out of school so they could spend time with her at the vet's before, well, you know... We're STILL hurting about it. But, for crying out loud, OSH is six months away! I think it's safe to say that you can potty train any puppy by then? I'm not insensitive to your loss, but I think you're premature in cancelling your reservations. There are many people -- myself included -- that regard your forums as the ONLY "don't miss" forums at OSH, and it simply won't be the same without you and Gail... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
