But I will endeavor to persevere. Within your deflation remark there is probably a fart joke lurking. Which, out of deep personal respect & regard, I will just this once forego.

I hadn’t cried for at least 5 years, because “boys don’t cry” and all this crap. This particular scene was my first properly tearful moment as an adult. And it felt good. Made me realise I needed to allow myself to cry. Thank you @Larstrup AdamSmith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.S. @MsGuy and I do shoot each other in the head a lot, but that's just a Southern tradition of affection and neighborliness. Now watch him shoot me again.

I love these type videos! Personal story: The first and only time I tried a snortable powder, back in the day (ahem); We had just left the airport hotel of what was then Skyharbor airport in Denver. It was a 727. It was extremely hot outside and the plane was full. Overbooked actually, and there was a painful IDB process which had followed an unsuccessful, voluntary. We had already been disconnected from auxiliary power so there was no air conditioning provided to the cabin. After the cabin crew had successfully removed three passengers from the aircraft And replaced them with $uperior travelers ( without having to drag them through the aisle) we pushed back from the gate. By this time I was asking myself why I just didn’t volunteer because I felt as I was in an environment which was very unfriendly to my current state of mind. ( A nonsensical flying tube) But it was too late! I was sweating and fearful of the environment that I had placed myself in, yet had been so comfortable prior as I was a licensed aviator. When we rolled, We rolled at least 3/4 of the runway (VR speed) before the aircraft nose actually lifted off. I believed we were all going to be dead. When I looked out my window And saw that we had barely cleared the airport property, past the runway I was horrified. For three and half hours afterward I was uncomfortably(psychotic) confined in an uncomfortable environment that I had always been in with great confort and joy and then suddenly realizing that we were all in flying in a tube with wings attached and over 550 mph some 30 thousand feet above the ground. It was the first and last Mistake like that and I have ever made. Where was “Kaye” when I really needed her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
