This book is on my mind. Ordered it from Amazon as a kindle book months ago. My favorite novel, or one of them. Found that i actually purchased a summary book like cliff notes. Who would actually buy that for $10. ?!?! I was pissed and told Amazon i felt this was a scam. They refunded my money forthwith. Thanks Amazon.

I immediately submitted an order for the paperback novel and three other movies. I respect their business approach.

Southwest canceled my trip yesterday. Bummed but already reset for a few weeks out. My airplane is back, so i came to check on it and the beach house. Airplane is Great; got to the house just in time.

Arrived at the beach within 30 minutes of a heater failure! No S$&! Bev and I looked on youtube; opened the unit; evaluated the status LED code, and diagnosed a pressure switch failure. Tried some simple solutions first, but ended up calling for emergency service. When they called back, i told the service guy what i knew, and he gave me three things to try before he came out. The third thing fixed it. He explained it all patiently to me. Amazing.

Had there not been a storm, I would have been in Indianapolis when i received an automated email that the measured temp dropped out of range. Bev would them have had to come down to keep things from freezing, and I would have had a major distraction going into my training. Service call would have been mandatory.

Fate is the Hunter. The turn of events left me right here when it all failed. Within 30 minutes of it failing. No charge by the heater guy. How the hell did that happen?

One day earlier and i am traveling in a snow storm with no help available and freezing temps to mitigate. No snow storm and i am far away and Bev has the ball. Interesting.

Fully retired now, unless something interesting comes along. I’ve enjoyed a lucrative career as an Electrical Engineer, Certified Software Solutions Developer, and Project Manager. An excellent and fun career that I’m very proud of. I began flying commercially in Dash-8 aircraft for Piedmont Airlines, and moved on to instruct in the Gulfstream 280; WestWind; and Astra jet aircraft. I’ve also been blessed with a type rating in the B-25 bomber in a fortunate turn of events. My wife, Beverly, and I currently own and operate a beautifully restored PA30 Twin Comanche, which we use to explore the CONUS.
