        Nope, although flying over Afghanistan in November 2003 (Heathrow-Bangkok) was a little unnerving! :~ Anna :rose: Currently working mostly on: Visual Lint :cool: Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "Be yourself - not what others think you should be" - Marcia Graesch "Anna's just a sexy-looking lesbian tart" - A friend, trying to wind me up.

                  As a private pilot, I should probably say no, im not afraid of flight. However, one thing I know is that the day im not scared shitless of flying is the day i'll probably make a mistake and crash!

                          I wouldn't have thought so. I guess those are just normal scheduled routes. To be honest I was equally uneasy about flying over the Middle East. I wouldn't be at all welcome there either. ;) Anna :rose: Currently working mostly on: Visual Lint :cool: Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "Be yourself - not what others think you should be" - Marcia Graesch "Anna's just a sexy-looking lesbian tart" - A friend, trying to wind me up.

                            I zipped the lip. :) I actualy had more ideas, and one of them turned out to be the right one. I'm sure you're going to have some more ideas in the second season. That's what I meant by the are you sure question. regards, Mircea Many people spend their life going to sleep when they’re not sleepy and waking up while they still are.

                                      Alot of people made plans before the war . . . like George Zip. It was at that moment that I first realized Elaine had doubts about our relationship. And that as much as anything else led to my drinking problem We did come back to the states, I tried a number of jobs . . . well, I could go on for hours, but I would probably start to bore you. I really couldn't blame Elaine... she wanted a career. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau. Talk about things of tomorrow and the mice in the ceiling laugh.

                                          Don't forget petrophobia (fear of otters) which, I admit, isn't that common in deserts... The tigress is here :-D

                                          I don't know about that.... I know I certainly wouldn't want to meet up with an angry dry otter who is mad because he doesn't have any water.... :omg: _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.
