More Aviator's words of wisdom
- If you push the stick forward, the houses get bigger, if you pull the stick back they get smaller. (Unless you keep pulling the stick back -- then they get bigger again)
- Flying is not dangerous; crashing is dangerous.
- It's better to be down here wishing you were up there, than up there wishing you were down here.
- The propeller is just a big fan in the front of the plane to keep the pilot cool. Want proof? Make it stop; then watch the pilot break out into a sweat.
- Speed is life, altitude is life insurance. No one has ever collided with the sky.
- It's best to keep the pointed end going forward as much as possible.
- The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.
- Every one already knows the definition of a 'good' landing is one from which you can walk away. But very few know the definition of a 'great' landing. It's one after which you can use the airplane another time.
- The probability of survival is equal to the angle of arrival.
- Always remember you fly an airplane with your head, not your hands. Never let an airplane take you somewhere your brain didn't get to five minutes earlier.
- You know you've landed with the wheels up when it takes full power to taxi.
- Those who hoot with the owls by night should not fly with the eagles by day.
- A helicopter is a collection of rotating parts going round and round and reciprocating parts going up and down - all of them trying to become random in motion. Helicopters can't really fly - they're just so ugly that the earth immediately repels them.
- Learn from the mistakes of others. You won't live long enough to make all of them yourself.
- Trust your captain .... but keep your seat belt securely fastened.
- Good judgment comes from experience and experience comes from bad judgment.
- Aviation is not so much a profession as it is a disease.
- There are three simple rules for making a smooth landing. Unfortunately, no one knows what they are.
- The only thing worse than a captain who never flew as copilot is a copilot who once was a captain.
- Be nice to your first officer, he may be your captain at your next airline.
- It's easy to make a small fortune in aviation. You start with a large fortune.
- A fool and his money are soon flying more airplane than he can handle.
- Remember, you're always a student in an airplane.
- Keep looking around; there's always something you've missed.
- Try to keep the number of your landings equal to the number of your takeoffs.
- You cannot propel yourself forward by patting yourself on the back.
- There are old pilots, and there are bold pilots, but there are no old, bold, pilots!
- Gravity never loses -- the best you can hope for is a draw!
- You start out flying with a bag of luck and a bag of experience, the trick is to get your bag of experience full before your bag of luck is empty.

Are you a Democrat, Republican or Southern Republican?
Here is a little test that will help you decide. Question: How do you tell the difference between Democrats, Republicans and Southern Republicans? The answer can be found by posing the following question:
You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the knife, and charges. You are carrying a Glock .40,
and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do?
Democrat's Answer:
- Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!
- Does the man look poor or oppressed?
- Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
- Could we run away?
- What does my wife think?
- What about the kids?
- Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?
- What does the law say about this situation!?
- Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it?
- Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?
- Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?
- Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?
- If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me?
- Should I call 9-1-1?
- Why is this street so deserted?
- We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.
- This is all so confusing! ! I need to debate this with some ! friends for few days and try to come to a consensus.

The positive values of rednecks ... We have enjoyed the redneck jokes for years. It's time to take a reflective look at the core beliefs of a culture that values home,
family, country and God. If I had to stand before a dozen terrorists who threaten my life, I'd choose a half dozen or so rednecks to back me up. Tire irons, squirrel guns and grit -- that's what rednecks are made of. I hope I am one of those.
- You might be a redneck if: It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase, "One nation, under God."
- You might be a redneck if: You've never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.
- You might be a redneck if: You still say "Christmas" instead of "Winter Festival."
- You might be a redneck if: You bow your head when someone prays.
- You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.
- You might be a redneck if: You treat Viet Nam vets with great respect, and always have.
- You might be a redneck if: You've never burned an American flag.
- You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.
- You might be a redneck if: You respect your elders and expect your kids to do the same.
- You might be a redneck if: You'd give your last dollar to a friend.
