For aviation lover

Sixteen reasons why airplanes are easier to live with than women:


1) Airplanes usually kill you quickly - a woman takes her time.


2) Airplanes can be turned on by a flick of a switch.


3) Airplanes don't get mad if you do a "touch and go."


4) Airplanes don't object to a preflight inspection.


5) Airplanes come with manuals to explain their operation.


6) Airplanes have strict weight and balance limitations.


7) Airplanes can be flown any time of the month.


8) Airplanes don't come with in-laws.


9) Airplanes don't care about how many other airplanes you've flown before.


10) Airplanes and pilots both arrive at the same time.

11) Airplanes don't mind if you look at other airplanes.

12) Airplanes don't mind if you buy airplane magazines.

13) Airplanes expect to be tied down.

14) Airplanes don't comment on your piloting skills.

15) Airplanes don't whine unless something is really wrong.

16) However, when airplanes go quiet, just like women, it's usually not good.

The number 1 Reason why women and airplanes are alike!

They will both leave you broke.

I just flew in a Cessna-150 the other day with my friend and flew into Craig Airport, fuel was at $5.05/per gal.

You lovers of the English language might enjoy this . . .


There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that is "UP."

It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP? At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report?

We call UP our friends. And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver, we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house and some guys fix UP the old car. At other times the little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses. To be dressed is one thing but to be dressed UP is special.

And this UP is confusing: A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP . We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night.

We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP ! To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP , look the word UP in the dictionary. In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4th of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions. If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP , you may wind UP with a hundred or more.. When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP . When the sun comes out we say it is clearing UP .

When it rains, it wets the earth and often messes things UP.
When it doesn't rain for awhile, things dry UP.

One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now my time is UP , so... Time to shut UP ...!

Oh...one more thing:

What is the first thing you do in the morning & the last thing you do at night? U-P
