Miguel,No shame, sir... Just don't show your wife this post and all will be well. Unless you find soemone with a higher amount spent. Then you can show her that post instead. :-)Now, for your penance, fly two around the countries, and 5 patterns at your home airport.Regards,Joehttp://home.attbi.com/~jranos/sigban.jpg.Politics - Give Me Liberty or Give Me Deathhttp://pub207.ezboard.com/bpoliticsgivemel...tyorgivemedeath
