Ya know, Sky, it's a good thing we live on opposite coasts. Can you imagine all the trouble we'd get into together if we were in the same town??

I forgot, I should have added "or being on the payroll at Continental airlines."

I was afraid that was the conclusion we would arrive at. There was a time long long ago that airline captains made tons of money and had ladies at will. It seems that this era's aviators have no money and even fewer women chasing them. Perhaps I should of pursued being a rock musician or become a professional dancer, hairdresser or a Dr. McDreamy type. Surely any of them would have more luck with the ladies than this sorry profession.

The pilots are horny? - that's nothing new. I wonder if sailors are as well? Now there is a new discussion - pilots vs. sailors...LOL...I wonder which ones make better lovers?
Sailors are filthy.... Just filthy. That's the rep they earned and they earned it well. Filthy beggers travel from port to port.

No... You're wrong... You just have to flaunt it like you got it. Put on the suit. Shave. Polish the shoes and rim of that captains hat. Then just cruise the strip in a convertable. Don't be afraid to wink at women at red lights or honk at ones on jogging trails and you'll be sitting just fine

Thanks for the advice toilet. I am going to go shave and polish it (the hat) right now. Now if I could just borrow someone's convertible. Ladies if you are out the next night or two, look for calcapt to be cruising the boulevard. Honk Honk!!!

Slice, honey...My men visit me. You're the airline pilot, remember?? But, don't you think that as a member of the posse, you have to run it by our fearless leader, Calcapt, first? Wouldn't want you to get in any trouble over little old me.

Pseudo airline pilot these days. Anyway, I thought I had Carte Blanche as the Captain's 'Number One'. PS- I'll be right over.

Hmm...maybe so. The dudes sailing around here have fancy boats and fancy Italian cars...they don't look at all physically filthy though, but who knows? They'd still have to prove their mental and physical health.
