Well, I'm down to my second to last day at work and it's been all goodbyes, tears, and "don't let the door hit you on the a$$ on the way out" smack. It's been a good 14 years here at Mediflight except when it hasn't been, but in truth it's the people I will miss. I've never lived anywhere for longer than three years anywhere in my life, so a decade and a half was a real eye opener on how to actually maintain friendships and being a good neighbor.
I know most, if not all of you, take such things for granted, but as an Army brat *** Army careerist *** civilian commercial helicopter pilot I have never experienced any kind of longevity in my life. My family is the only thing I've known that extended past a three year window.
Anyhow, I'm on to a new adventure day after tomorrow. My posts will become far and few between-- at least while I'm out of country --and I wanted you guys to know that this place has been much fun for me for a long, long time. I'll take some pics of me and my homeboys, the Tutsies and Hoodoos or Hoo-toos or whatever they call themselves, along with all the monkeyes and lions and rhinos that I come across on my trip. When I get back I'll post them for you to photoshop and label as the "gayest straight spearchucker" or somesuch, as I'm certain you will.
