Blogging Lite Tonite

In the finest traditions of macho maleness this morning I disregarded the way-smarter-than-me Mrs. Fish and went walking down the driveway and fell on my arm then my ass on the ice. So now I have a temporarily clipped wing (not busted, just battered thank goodness) which means I have to type with one hand. What is the sound one hand blogging, grasshopper?

If I can do a short post or two, I might try it ... but it's so slow eeeek! And then there's the vicodin.

My new familial nickname is now "Crash", and me a pilot and all. The Family Fish find it all most amusing...

Well, pilot, when you get your other wing back into stable flying condition, why don't you get yourself Microsoft's Combat Flight Simulator for PCs(now sold by Atari for $9.95), meet me on MSN's The Zone, and see if you do deserve the nicname "Crash."

Pride goes before the fall,wtf stay proud anyways. Pardon the take on the 'cowboy up'/chimp up slogan...'sober up'?

Well someone beat me to the Flight Simulator jabs, so submitted herewith is the mandatory "typing with one hand" joke.

Besy wishes for a speedy return to flight status.

I hear if you type with your other hand, it feels like someone is typing for you ;)

Get well soon!

You do have it! Cool. I belong to a virtual squad called JG1. We get togather every tuesday and thursday and fly missions. This last thursday we flew against another squad in one on one dog fighting.
One of the more memorable times on line is when I flew against a pilot who actually flew in the war. He was a P-47 Pilot. He kicked my butt.
Anyway, just go to http://zone.msn.com/, if you don't already have a net passport account, just sign up. Then just go to the CD-ROM games, there you'll see flight simulator rooms. CFS 1 has two rooms, Ridge Runners and Furball. Usually RR has about 100 or more people in the evening.
email me with questions and I can answer them more thoughtfully.

Just catching up... hope you're doing better - Vicodin is great stuff, but last time I had to take it made me feel like I was going to stop breathing. So I put up with the pain. No good option there.

Best wishes from a fellow ex-military pilot.
