Yep. Brazen hussy cheatamacphile. That's me. These came via email from the shy and retiring I. But it's sort of thematic, and I did edit/weed a bit. And I'm reallyreallyreally tired and my brain is like soup because, well, just because. Because, because, because, because, becaaaaauuuuse. Great. Now I'm hearing munchkins.
Aviation quotes, no idea of their authenticity. But they're still better than anything my poor brain can come up with tonight. Toniiigght, toniiiigght, there'll be a moon toniii-- aaarrrgghh
"You, you, and you ... Panic. The rest of you, come with me." – USMC Gunnery Sergeant
"If the wings are travelling faster than the fuselage, it's probably a helicopter -- and therefore, unsafe."
Advice given to RAF pilots during WWII: "When a prang (crash) seems inevitable, endeavour to strike the softest, cheapest object in the vicinity as slow and gently as possible."
Basic Flying Rules: "Try to stay in the middle of the air. Do not go near the edges of it. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and interstellar space. It is much more difficult to fly there."

Love the last one, 'fly in the middle' of the air etc. Too funny.
I always thought because was a classic parenting reason. "Because I said so."
I'll have to try it as a post and see what happens.
The last one's my favorite, too, bookwormom.
Don't know where my head was last night, or evening this morning. But it is a bit like a musical in there right now. Which is scary.
Looking forward to your post :-)
