Nick Otterback Arion Aircraft, LLC ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 10:12:22 AM PST US From: Kayberg@AOL.COM Subject: Re: Lightning-List: Re: Media Star My wife suggests I use the call sign of "Potbelly Pig" or "Dainbramage" but I am not sure why. I dont willingly perform in public, however, so perhaps others can take my place in this now growing band. Besides, my skill level as a dancer is on par with my flying skills. Speaking of which, Why is it that you can fly an airplane for 50-100 hours and make hundreds of landings and no one calls you "Skilled" or nominates you for the Sully Award? But just hit the ground a little hard ONE TIME, crunching this and that, and everybody calls you "Crash". Doesnt seem right. Now all this started because I tried to say something nice about Buz. I am just glad I didnt talk about all that other stuff I know about him.

Hey Doug, just be happy she is not suggesting " Drain Bed". And we really need you as a dancer, regardless of whether you bride call you a Potbelly Pig or not (better than Porky). I can just see the Piglet outfit you will wear with your skates. And thanks for keeping all those secrets. I would hate to notify my "Black world" friends to silence my good buddy, the ice dancing piglet.

Hey Buz/Nick: I did read the newsletter this morning on Jim's site. I trie d on the Lightning site, but could only get to the November's letter.
