[LRflex] Re: Flying Lessons... (a wee bit OT)

For David's next flying lesson:

Try to fix on your back a large buttered toast, butter outside. As we all 
know, the buttered toast lands on butter but as it is attached to David and 
therefore creating a system in interaction with gravity, David should be 
able to stand still in some non defined (and non hurting) position while the 
system cannot decide if to land on butter or to land on the bone.

(pfeeeew, pleas breathes up!)

I managed to keep save from aggressive "cagers" (car users) till now but 
tomorrow is snow here.
Better take the car, a R7 and a 50mm to take funny pictures!

Heel well David, drink stout, it is full of calcium!
Regards.
