   12 days left until the election. Then 73 days until Jan 20. Unless of course, Trump resigns and Pence gives him a federal pardon.

   Your saying you flew cobras reminded me of one of my first Helicopter lessons-after I had already gotten SMEL, Commercial, Instrument and Seaplane on my fixed wing license-I had all by lessons in a Bell Bubble, did not need anything except emergency landings, Auto rotate. It was about my third lesson-boy those controls were sensitive-and we were no more than 20 feet in the air when the instructor told me to set it down, which I did and broke the right side skid, which made the helo tip hard to the right, where it caught the rotors and just tore them up. Took about 6 weeks to get it fixed, as it happened, apparently a weld on the skid failed, so thankful neither one of us was injured. But, boy, what a mess.

   In late ’68, when we had reported to tech school an Army capt came in and tried to get someone, anyone, to switch to the Army for Helicopter Pilot school. One guy asked, what if we flunked out, the answer was very vague. But no matter, no one switched.

   I remember them. A good friend almost had one of his legs blown off when he was hit by “friendly fire” (Friendly fire isn’t) Said it was as if time slowed waaay down, he could see each shell hit closer and closer, but he was totally unable to get his leg out of the way as he said, it was as if his body was moving really slow.

   there was one older Maple tree, which I have not seen in 17 years, where the entire tree was the brightest red I have ever seen, every year was the same. Too bad it was way back on a two track where few people ever saw it.

    The Republican Party is the Party of “Big Business”. Which is just one reason why, whenever they are in power, they cut taxes for the 1% all the while $crewing over the 99%. The entire Republican Party has been beholden to “Big Business” since the start of the 20th century
