So last evening, the conversation went something like this: Me: Fred made it to Virginia in three and a half hours. Ain't that something? Joy: We need to talk. You've done your last deal with Fred Scott. You are not buying his King Air! Me: No problem. It'll never happen. Joy (looking up): Why not? Me: Well we spent the girls' college money on the Baron and our retirement money on the Waco. Nothing left to spend! But, you know, I think my wheel-landing technique is coming along. Did you see it on Sunday? What you do, is you just let it *kiss* the pavement, then stick forward just a tad...runs true and nice as "Bob's your Uncle". Joy (head in hands): There's a little left in a piggy bank upstairs. I'm buying a welcome mat that says "A Pilot and a Normal Person live here"...

I bought one for Allison as a first wedding anniversary gift. For our second anniversary I bought her a shirt that reads, "if you think being a pilot is hard, try being their wife!" I'll send Joy a link through Facebook

This is perfect. Could you send me that link, too, if you find it?
