No one in my family would have known what that was, or where to buy
it!

Jay, you are blessed to have a family where flying doesn't have to be worked
*around* but instead enjoyed *with.*

Merry Chrsitmas.

My wife bought me a new headset (AVCOMM, stereo, a step up from my old
one, but more importantly I now have 3 so I can take 2 people with me
at a time!).

I got a couple of books.

Then my wife blew me away. She gave me a nice letter and a check for
my instrument training!

As soon as this work proposal I'm wokring on is done (mid January),
I'm calling my instructor and mapping out a plan!

A teevee remote I had to program thru the internet via USB...

What's *that* about?

Its k3wl...

New bathroom sink to replace the rusted, cast iron sink 25+ years old
and fixture.
New kitchen sink to replace worn cast iron sink 25+ years old,
fixture and disposal.
New hot water heater (replacement for 16 year old unit) on order,
probably installed sometime next week.

Oh - you meant for the putt-putt? A new battery. Exciting, right?

Jay,

Got a Zulu from my wife. After 3.5 hours yesterday and today (IFR, most
of it in the sunshine on top of really bad murk, I might add) I am
extremely happy with them.

Well, in looking around everyone got enough goodies to make them mad
with happiness... I haven't gotten anything special YET but I expect
the Visa and Mastercard statements any day now...

As far as Fat ALbert, ye crusty old mechanic hasn't found room in the
shop but hopes to within a week or so... The Lycoming jugs are piled
with care in hopes that an overhaul soon will be there...

You suck! (And I mean that in a good way... :-)

I'll be waiting for the "long-term PIREPs" with baited breath. My
next chance to actually try/buy a pair will be (maybe) Sun N Fun or
(for sure) OSH '08...

Ah, yes -- the gift that keeps on giving.

You certainly win the "most expensive" competition...

Jay,

That might be detrimental to your health ;-)

We had a Bose in the cockpit, too, and one thing I noticed was that
Lightspeed has completely hidden the wires going from earcup to earcup.
Nice touch! The construction is very sturdy, I expect it to hold up
well. That said, I never had any problems with my 20k, so I do seem to
treat my headsets well.
