Funny that picture is a striking resemblance to the picture of you I had in my mind :shock: I'm not quite as good looking as him, but he does resemble B.R.

Guest Bullet Remington Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Sounds to me BR that you both need a trip to the hangar for an indepth 3000hr. inspection and some structural repair. Split: I AM also "S" endorsed!! Not thatit does much good! Have you ever tried to buy Medical Grade titanium on the open market???! My Missus bought me a T ee shirt and a hoodie that states " That's Mister A$$hole to You!! As for the Old Fart picture, Keeerist, I can't remember when I last looked that good!! Handsome bugger and looks like a Lady Killer to me!! When I was in the service, the young snots used to call me COB.... Short for Crusty Old Bast@ed!! Now most folks just call me Geezer!! Personally, I don't care what they call me, as long as they call me and I can hear them, life's ok! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrmvr Posted May 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 I have also lived and traveled all over the world, I realize how lucky I am living here in Canada. But I don’t think “how lucky we have it” was the topic of the thread. I also realize how lucky I must be having an “old fart” older generation husband that is receptive to the needs, wants and concerns of his younger generation spouse. Just like I am to his. Not sure if I would still be married if either of us told each other to suck it up and stop whining. Unless I misinterpreted the posts at the beginning of this thread, I would not consider “concerns” about spouses/family in the industry – “whining”. Don’t recall any whining about them being away for however long or short, just concerns spouses/families have when their loved one is not home safe with them. Um yeah I dont recall anyone whining - was just interested to see how others cope - Having lost a son ( not in aircraft accident), I know how it feels to have your heart ripped from your chest and wonder why me, why my son? . I try not to "whine" about that. And I think anyone who knows me will testify to that. You just have to get on with life and learn to live with the pain. So I am mystified as to why the "suck it up and stop whining" thing came into this topic?? Everyone is different and people all cope with things differently - if we are to be afraid to say what we feel on this forum, for fear of being shot down in flames..... - ah I know you were just joking you old farts!!!
