Well, you're built like a car
You've got a hubcap diamond star halo

Well, at 1 AM after a number of beers and reading to get to sleep, it looked like a Bonanza

O'Hare tower: you're in our airspace. Get the hell out.
Father: which way?
O'Hare tower: what do you see on the ground?
Father: a water tower that says "Elgin" on it.
O'Hare tower gave directions for the quickest exit.
That happened AFTER he almost killed me by trying to move his seat closer to the rudders while rotating and pinning himself against the back bench seat. I got us out of stall, leveled off and trimmed up. He managed to pull himself forward to retake control. I never flew with him again. I was 12.
My father wasn't a pilot. But in WW2 he was a radioman on the ground outside of London giving vectors to bombers returning from their runs. But knowing him, I'm glad he wasn't a pilot....
I have flown with others (ONCE!) that I would never fly with again....
My son after having a Philly cheese steak for his 3rd Birthday today! 
The kids are working on more songs for their next show, and our "4th kid" makes a few appearances from 1:47 on, oblivious to the camera and scratching himself.
Wow man, they sound wonderful! And your daughter on drums has a great sense of time and rhythm!
Thanks! She hasn't taken a lesson from a drum teacher in years. She prefers taking lessons from her siblings' guitar/bass teacher to work on song structure and feel. So long as she's happy doing it that way, it's ok by me.
oh - and she refuses to learn how to read music. I wasn't initially ok with that, but if it was going to be a deterrent to her wanting to play, I figured I could let it slide and support what she wanted to do.
