Me and Charlie Lindbergh drove from Long Island to Paris one night, a little over 33 hours. Back when we were both young.

My dad told me he saw Lindbergh fly over his house on the way to Long Island. I traced the route, so I think my dad's memory was accurate.

a daring pilot for sure. he will be remembered forever in the books but the younger generation as all generations do forget all about the distant past.

at least he has a cheese that sounds like his name.

i did pilot a 1929 curtiss robin for a short time. that was the plane wrong way corrigan flew his famous flight in.

Me too. I don't feel bad if I offend somebody intentionally, but if I offend somebody through carelessness it bothers me. That's not to say I always feel bad when people take offence at something I've said--that's completely different. Some people make a career out of taking offence.

Ray Zee, Phat Mack, and Joe Cole fly a plane:

Ray is guy (pilot) making the old fashions the old fashion way. The others are self explanatory.

This may be behind a pay wall, but it was too good not to share. One think I know for sure: If they don't start leaving milk and cookies, they're not going to get any more TV sets.

And that was the second person I offended. The first is just, as his wife said, a jerk.

Obviously, Mickey Rooney is the stand in for John Cole. Joe Cole was mentioned because I have fat fingers and a fat head and can't spell. You know, like someone else around here. But I won't mention any name least I offend some nameless no-no.

Got a new car today. Well, I paid for a new car, I get it on Monday. Always fun to get a new ride. It’s a Hyundai Santa De SEL Plus. Lots of bells and whistles.

I just want to say that I ate lunch in Angola, Indiana, a few days ago. On the way, I passed Lee Greenwood's tour bus. I did not attempt to sideswipe it.
