Ok here is a tidbit of Information, while not exactly Directly being on Subject, it nevertheless might have an affect on My ability to Fly. As in My ability to experience a superior Climb rate tio What Previously before when I Pounded. This Six Foot Four inch tall Predator Pilot was One Hundred Ninety Eights Pounds om That Imfamos Day. I weighed Myself. Yes I weighed just two pounds short of Three Hundred Pounds. I wax talking to John on the Phone this Morning. I told John that My Sister Kathleen {THE DEMON} had Me taking some of this Chromium Picolinate. This Dope has the effect on Me that My voracious appetite has subsided. I said to John that maybe Possibly I just Might be able to Lower My Bodyweight down some more so that I can be the optimum Body weight for a Predator 158. John replied with one of His "COOL MAN" responses.

So in the not too far distant Future John will come up to Sonoma County, Cazadero California. I will be moving to Cazadero where I will be staying with My Mother. Heck the way I see it, it is about time that I sponge off My Mother. Heck My Mother has lived with Me for the last Twelve and a half Years My Mother has lived here at My House here in the SF east Bay Area Town of Brentwood California. Yes as I tell My Friend Pilot-X Regarding when His Grand Daughters will Gladly Drive for "X" when the are of age to be Driving for Him, They will. "X" is a very poor Pilot. But "X" is a very good person. I tell "X" that when He and I are talking about His future Flying that His Grand Daughters will fight each other fso that whichever one wins the Argument will be the one wo doe's indeed get to drive "X'S" retrieval Vehicle.

YOu know when I see My Pilot friends who have Sons, Daughters, and now Granddaughter's. I look at My Friends with envy. For I have not one Son, Daughter, Grandson, or Grand Daughter. No Not a One. I guess I will need to look up Mickie and ask Him how, what was his situation that caused Motorist to answer His thumb being pointed into the Air, thus causing them to stop, and offer Micky a ride. I just thought that Micky had a disarming Personality. By the Way, Both John and I believe that Mickie is the Greatest HG Pilot either of Us have ever seen. I was down at a Southern California Flying Site one Day Called "Crestline". It was an Dead day, the wind I am talking about was Quite Still. The Cycles were practically in existant. Some of the local Pilots' were Standing around, Yes They e=were standing around complaining how difficult it would be to launch. Well Mickie hopped hIDS gLIDER UP TO lAUNCH, WHERE hE DROPPED down and Did a Hang Check. Mickie then wait for a mere wisp of a cycle to rustle His Wing. He then called Clear and off He went, He launched! Regarding Myself, I also managed to get off the Hill that Day. And get this I had an unfair advantage tp Mickie that Day.. I had not a one Legged Pilot, I have two Legs.

Ok I will just come Out and sayit. Does anyone know a Pilot who Demonstrates the Desire to be in the Air More than Mickie Does? I For One am all Ears. 925-497-1059: Good By Chris McKeon.
