Just how bad is the economy?
The economy is so bad that...
- I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.
- African television stations are now showing 'Sponsor an American Child' commercials!
- CEO's are now playing miniature golf.
- My ATM gave me an IOU!
- If the bank returns your check marked "Insufficient Funds," you call them and ask if they meant you or them.
- Parents in Beverly Hills fired their nannies and learned their children's names.
- A truckload of Americans was caught sneaking into Mexico .
- Motel Six won't leave the light on anymore.
- A picture is now only worth 200 words.
- BP laid off 25 Congressmen.
And Finally...
- Angelina Jolie adopted a child from America.

Pilots and Weather Analysis
We Pilots are taught many different ways to interpret the vast amounts of weather data available to us. There are so many weather products right at your finger tips that the pilots real challenge these days is how to interpret and internalize the data and to use it effectively.
Then you get into the concepts of formal data and informal data. Formal data would best be exemplified by the weather channel. Informal data might be best exemplified by old sayings like "red sky at night sailors delight, red sky in morning sailors take warning."
Of course another example of informal weather analysis is when your passengers are praying with eyes clinched shut, this may be a good indicator that the ride is not too smooth!
