    I live a life free from stress so I really don't need it. Sure it would be nice to eventually be a commercial rated pilot so I could have a fun second career that pays even less than programming but at least leads to better stories.

      Tuesday, weather permitting I am scheduled to take the test to be a pilot. I wouldn't be too worried, I make a lot more errors coding than flying :p

            Just make sure you have a stick of Beemans and half a broom handle and you'll do fine. Good luck!

                              Stole it from Chuck Yeager. He was always bumming sticks of gum (Beemans) off people before a test flight, and the day he broke the sound barrier, he had broken ribs and couldn't close the cockpit door without using a broom stick handle. That's how it was portrayed on the movie the Right Stuff, anyway.
