Every year for the past few years I have taken a vacation every 15 weeks, this year I decided not to, and I don’t know why we are halfway through week number 16 and I have nothing scheduled in the foreseeable future. This week last year I was in Florida with some friends, that was the last time I took a flight and was the first time I got to sit in first class, a buddy of mine swapped seats with me so that I could have that experience, I have great friends. Yesterday there was a plane that had engine problems where a piece of the engine broke apart at more than 30,000 feet, spraying metal pieces through the fuselage and forcing the jet to make an emergency landing. Damn, this goes to show why we need to know our jobs and train and retrain until we can do it in our sleep or without thinking. I don’t know anyone who was on that flight but I for one am thankful that that pilot knew what to do. Speaking of vacations, have you ever made a trip off the beaten path to check out the world’s biggest fill in the blank?
