Not sure what all these fat cats (who have lost a lot of weight recently) on Wall Street are talking about when they discuss the Credit Crisis on Main Street?  Jonathan Jarvis has a fantastic short explaining exactly what is happening.  Check it out below.

Conference calls are BORING. Instead of listening, go design your own superhero!

Here’s mine:

Believe it or not, this was only the SECOND time that Chris has been up with me! While she was pregnant with Payton, she joined Garret & James in the 172 I qualified in, but after that she thought she would be too uncomfortable in the seats, so we have not gone since that day in August.

But on Friday night, we did the downtown Dallas tour in the SportStar! What a fun ride! The night was very clear thanks to a cold front that was moving through, and we were not the only group that decided the flight would be a good idea. That was the busiest I’ve ever seen it. Partially because of the north wind, we had jets on approach and landing right through our flight path.

In the future, with a north wind, I might just pass on the scenic tour.

We did our tour and headed back without incident. Only an hour of flight time, but it was a great hour spent with Chris at 1,500 feet.
