Singing Flyboy?
Hey everyone, Just a quick post this time. I want you to have a sneak peak at my new site that I’ve been working on. It is just like I talked about in the last post, a way for me to raise money to help offset the cost of getting my pilot certificate. Check it out if you like. Its temporary home is on the Blarged Server. http://www.blarged.com/singingflyboy Let me know what you think! PS.... [read more]

Flight Lesson 2
I just got back from flight lesson two. Things felt much more under control this time around. It’s a good thing :-) My new adventure of this lesson was the radio. Who am I talking to? Who am I? What I want to do… … wait for response Repeat instructions back… Simple enough. Well I was nervous… ok, I was scared of the people on the other side of the radio. Hah, but it went... [read more]

Boy and their toys…
Last post ran a little long, so I decided to put off talking about my latest finds/toys until… well, now. So for the millions of you who have been on the edge of your computer chair, feverishly clicking the refresh button… the time is now. Today, I would like to tell you about three new (to me) ‘things’.

Homeless Herbert

Flying Lessons:o First off, I haven’t had a flying lesson since my first last Monday.

Flight Lesson 1
“Skipper 37147… you are clear for take off…” Whew! What a thrilling experience! I have to say, I don’t think I have ever experience anything quite like flying an airplane before. Ok… so here’s a little of what we did. After checking the weather every 15 minutes all day at work today, 4:45 rolled around and I hopped in the car to head down to Lunken Airport. At about 5:30, Richard and I walked the... [read more]

Exorcise Daily
With tomorrow being Easter, many people are deciding to which church they will descend to and bless with their presence for services. Now its good that these people make the effort to go to church at all, but you have to wonder, if you only go on Easter, what’s the point? Is Easter worth double? If so, does Christmas count for more as well? I don’t think God has set point values for attending church.... [read more]

Pre Flight - Lesson 1
I would be writing this entry at about 16:15 tomorrow… however, I’ll be at work, and even though I could write the entry, I can’t use the ftp settings to upload for you to see. That is why, tonight is the PreFlight entry. Here’s how I’m feeling: Excited, nervous, jittery, giddy, happy, anxious, sleepy, hyper… and everything else pretty much. Most of all excited though. I have never flown in a small airplane before, and... [read more]

Flight Lesson 1 - Canceled
So right after the last post was… well, posted, I heard the tunes of ‘The Office’. So naturally I answered my phone. It was Sharon, lessons are canceled for the day. Friday at 5:30 is our rescheduled time. More waiting… more flight simulator (maybe I can have my commercial pilot license there before I start my actual real lessons) Later! Ps… For those who don’t know what weather I’m talking about… here’s the radar right... [read more]
