Thanks a bunch turkey! 30 hours in SE MI was enough thank you very
much!!!!!

What? You didn't join the throngs abandoning the city and enjoying the
big parking lots called express ways? Over 5 hours from Ann Arbor to
Jackson yesterday morning as I understand.

The outage didn't hit us, but it did come up through the center of the
state as far north as Clare and one feeder line just 4 miles west of
us. I'm just over 2 miles west of Midland's city limits.

Beautiful day today...just a few scattered clouds and visibility 2 in
haze. A couple of stray thunderstorms, but nothing close to here.

Oops..it's all the way up to three...VFR is here. But we now have a
ceiling at roughly 22,000.
Wind WNW @ 7, temp 75, humidity 85%, DP 70, Vis 3.
Tain't quite as good as the terminal forecasts were predicting. But
what the heck...VFR in August.

Hey BWB!

Gonna take that Vette to the lake? Watch out for that Ranger!

I was in Thailand this past New Year and had a blast. Anyways, if you
ever want to feel young again, go to Thailand with me for a week or
two. I am a US citizen of Thai decent. I speak, read and write Thai.
I'll bet you will want to go back at least twice a year. "Live like
a king in the US = $$$$$$$, Live like a king in Thailand = $". The
whole coutry is structured to serve the allmighty greenback.

Regards,
Bryan

P.S. I told you to tell them that the tide went out on you.

Have fun with the Vette.

I fortunately filled up the car Wednesday night, and didn't have to go
anywhere, so we toughed it out. But when the bedroom light went on at 0030,
we got up, shut the windows and turned on the a/c.

Dang, why do you have to live so close to bad's troll? :-) I guess
we'll call off the power worm if it got you guys too.

dreading the return of the mindless trolls


I run a euchre game at the Senior Center. Last Thursday a bunch of my normal players went to
Windsor Raceway Casino. As they were waiting for the bus, I told them I was going to put the
hex on them so they wouldn't win anything. Boy, I am going to have to review my hex book. I
really fixed them up. I imagine I am going to catch it next Thursday. ;-))

I'll bet you most of the dweebs here don't even know what the term
NOTAR for helicopters means,


It's to do with saving the skids to land on, you need to keep above
the black-top, otherwise the skids get kind of bent out of shape,
thus the notice just over the pilots dor NO TAR.

or what adverse yaw is


Please sir, please sir, I know that one.g.


(why the rudder is on the airplane).


The rudder, ehm, isn't that to keep your feed occupied, stop them
getting numb while flying for long hours?

appreciated!

I was going to ask. "are you going flying then?", however I looked at
the date so my realy question is Did you go flying?
