Which is better to fly? Somebody sent Vodkapundit an email with the answer:

Obviously, through no fault of your own, your young, impressionable brain has been poisoned by the superfluous, hyped-up, “Top Gun” media portrayal of fighter pilots.

Unfortunately, this portrayal could not be further from the truth. In my experience, I’ve found most fighter pilots pompous, backstabbing, momma’s boys with inferiority complexes, as well as being extremely over-rated aeronautically. However, rather than dash your budding dreams of becoming a USAF pilot, I offer the following alternative:

What you really want to aspire to is the exciting, challenging and rewarding world of TACTICAL AIRLIFT.

Folloder (Non Sequitur) is a pet lover. He just doesn’t love YOUR pets. Specifically, he doesn’t love them when they mess in his yard or mess up his yard.

The only thing I have to say is that he’s a bit optimistic about even the most responsible pet owner controlling a cat. It’s wonderful if you have one of those lovely cats that never, ever wants to go outside. But if you have one that howls and scratches at the door to be let out, well… he/she is gonna do whatever they please. I don’t fault cat owners for paw prints on my car.

The other suggestion is that if your dog is a “runner” and some breeds are, get a microchip. Especially do this if you take your dog on trips with you.
