Let’s just say that where I live, I have to pay something like $15 just to be able to play with snow. Only thing is, it’s available 24/7. Ok, except when the place is closed. ;p
Ok, jokes aside, the only two instances where I’ve come into contact with real snow was in Korea while on holiday and while trekking in Nepal. I didn’t have any incidents during my brief enounter with said snow. Not too sure whether to be happy or sad. Still, it was a wonderful experience.
I’m going to do the Free For All Friday thing and letting my readers make new posts to my site. This should be dangerous… (Prize info below!)
Here are the rules, more-or-less cobbed from the FFAF site:
Helicopters must be very difficult to fly, especially if you’re in the Middle East.
With all of the accidents regarding flying vehicles in Iraq, I’m left to wonder a number of things: Does the military train helicopter pilots well enough to do their job? Are the machines they’re flying build soundly enough to stay in the air when properly piloted?
