Amelia Earhart... sort of

[My Wife Hates CIV]

Amelia Earhart flying around the world ??? in a modern aircraft... and not really the pilot after all.

"We see Kilimanjaro!" pilot Earhart wrote today on her Twitter page. but... She is co-piloting her single engine plane with Shane Jordan, also of Colorado.

I think I'm going to retrace the steps of early Donner party pioneers who set out for California in a wagon train.

Of course I'm going to be using my SUV and taking the highway... but I'll keep in touch with my cell phone and make sure I don't get lost with my GPS.

sending my pics to ABCnews.com so I can be the adventure I know I am, right Amelia! see you all in the news soon

I always wanted to make dinner reservations under the name Donner, just so I could hear them call out "Donner, party of 8."

Would you order the 'family meal'?

[My Wife Hates CIV]

same thing here... this would not be a news story if this girl was a fat cow.

Just like Amelia Earhart.

Pilots tend to be small. Dunno why that might be.

[My Wife Hates CIV]

they really don't get paid that much

[My Wife Hates CIV]

as a pilot - your family thinks you make lots of money. your friends think you get all kinds of free time. you wife thinks you have a girl friend at every airport. pay sucks, works hours are long... and no girls at those crapper motels they put you up in.
