Could happen the other way around.... everyone around you is a superstar, and it puts you down even further when you are never able to outperform them...

Or that they were made to develop a special paint that would work on a plane that would get hot enough to expand a foot (some regulation says you have to fly logos on all military airplanes). Think about how hot that must be.

Did you know that the blackbird leaks like a sieve until it expands that foot. I loses so much fuel taking off it needs to be refueled within 1/2 hour of flight. at the point it's good for it's mach3+ trips over russia </font>[/QUOTE]

Yeah...except FIRE FOX DOWN is a sequel to the FIREFOX trilogy...Would make a good Movie if you like edge of your seat spy thrillers. It has a James Bond persona, with-out the Holywood make-up.
