welllllllllllllllllllll have you seen the "getting to know you" thread? (sry....couldn't resist)
and I know ya are hun - ya'll had me in giggles last winter when I just could NOt resist letting ya'll know just how wonderful it was here while it was miserable there! I lived in Indpls for over 30 yrs....I remember those hideous winters! and remember what happened to me last winter??......those doggone weathers gods Dumped on my poor little ol city for picking on you eastern girls so cruelly!! (not that it's gonna stop me of course but................)
as for the name:
Corsair: F4-U Corsair flown by the Marines in the Pacific theater during WWII then picked up by the Navy and flown until about 1952 or so. I've always loved the look of the plane, my dad was flight enigneer for the last Corsair outfit in the Navy, and I've got a soft spot in my heart for the Black Sheep Squadron.
Mac: part of my 15 letter long last name! It's funny, I"m so used to ppl shortening my names (total letters first and last: 21) it's just normal for me to see shorthand versions of any of my names real or user!

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

Wellll, yes I read the getting to know you, but that was when you first started the thread and I just never went back to check. Hubby and I use to fly a veri eze airplane and my brother was a Navy pilot and my dad loaded bombs on B-17 Bombers in Korea, so I was curious.
