Cuff'...The picture you see of 1-2-3, our beautiful gentle giant, is of a balloon that was built in SD, in 11/99, at Aero Star (formerly Raven). I've been flying her since she was new.

TX...I'm not sure if there is any familial relationship between The Bump and me. Since he drinks single malt beverages , I seriously doubt it. I must add, however, that he seems to exhibit some redeaming social value and, as you know, he is a Senior Member and must be accorded deference by a newbie such as I. (Have you heard the one about the chili cook-off judge?)

Oops, the nurse just came in to tell me it's time for my medication. Catch ya'll later.

A few points...

You'll note I've resisted the urge to post all those lawyer jokes. Too easy and trite.

Never trust a proctologist who can palm a basketball.

While I would never claim to be as classy a guy as Cuff, I always take the high road. As in "I'll take the high road, and you take the low road, and I'll be in Scotchland afor ya'."

I've never tried ballooning - terrified of heights - but I can see the appeal. Are you Phileas Fogg, or Passepartout?

As for the single malt...I'll admit it's an acquired taste, but it's worth the effort and investment. Practice, practice, practice!

And I've got a chili cookoff story somewhere. I'll see if I can exhume it and post it. As I recall, it was quite amusing.
