They don't allow texting from the cockpit? Not even when on Autopilot?

It's like impossible to get a hold of him while he's at work. Even when he's not flying, his office either doesn't have signal, or he's too busy with stuff to tend to his phone.  Angry

RE: Salutations Sodomites!
when I was a kid, if there was an emergency at home, we were instructed to put a white towel in the tree in the front yard, if anyone in the fields or around the farm buildings noticed they would come up to the house.

I do remain amazed these days, however, even deep in areas with no cell service, if I'm moving around, a text message will usually penetrate pretty quickly.

I'll also admit the last harvest was done (on my part at least) with hardly any CB radio use. Cell phone and texting is better, actually. A text message from the Co-op regarding grain condition issues is unambiguous, with scratchy sound and very limited range, CB radio never was very good, but when it was all we had we thought it was great.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Welcome Mr. Catholic Lady. I'm sure there are some good stories in both of your backgrounds that explain your mutual poop fascination.

Tell me, if Jesus is your co-pilot, are you ever tempted to just say, "Fuck it," and let him land the plane?
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Thanks for the welcomes, folks. Most of you seem to have a bit of a . . . caustic(?) sense of humor - I dig it. Maybe I will be around more often than I first thought, but still not too much - my new job already has me glued to a keyboard. I wish I got to fly all day! Sadly, not so. 

I wonder how many pilots are on this board? I've often pondered the dichotomy of flying for a living (especially in the military) and religion (or lack thereof). Wow, there's a whole tunnel system of rabbit holes built into that sentence. Meh.

To be fair, as far as giant flying phalli go, mine is pretty small, but it still has it where it counts, if you get my meaning.

So... it's a small giant phallus?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
