I wonder if he laid up for himself any treasures in heaven?

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
-- Matthew 6:19-21

I think it was Ephesians 2, something or other, that said something like, "Good deeds won't buy your way into Heaven, only a belief in Christ." Been a long time.

Like Loddy said a few days ago, don't see no hearses with U-Hauls attached. No wonder, them cut-throat suits would steal the U-Haul.

Good deeds do make a man feel good sometimes. It is the right thing to do. I'll bet a bunch of Richie-Riches do use that as a reason not to do the right thing, right Bill?

LOLOLOL, you're in good form tonite! And properly jaundiced about life on this wacky planet :-x

Slick, if that's who you mean, is truly and indisputibly one of the most loathsome bipeds that ever walked the earth. He's right down there with Jack the Ripper, Bonnie, Clyde, Stalin, Mao, Caligula, Herod, and even Hillary.

HaHaHa, but boy, you sure look good! If you were a Chinese chicky-poo, we'd be in a lip-lock. Maybe more.

Chinese chicky-poo

I used to work with a guy who was relief forces at the Battle of Hamburger Hill in Vietnam.

He told me a mortar round landed right next to him. It was a dud.

I told him, "God had his hand on your shoulder."

His brother married an Oriental woman. He said, "It's like a knife in my heart." :-/

I told him, "God had his hand on your shoulder."

When I became a private pilot in 1989, yeah you goaded me into dragging out my old logbook, the FAA examiner told the FBO, "This is the best stick-and-rudder man you've ever turned out."

Most of the time, I flew in N89373, a Cessna 152, 2-seater out of 07C (Auburn). Sometimes I got stuck with N757RN (as in Raunchy Nasty). A couple of times I had to fly a C172 4-seater, N80519. That one kinda sucked too, might've as well been flying a glider.

Back to the story, the first passenger for me as pilot-in-command, was my mother. Short hop, left Auburn flew north, did a turn around-a-point at the Angola round-a-bout, flew to Coldwater, MI so she could see a relative's lake and cottage from the air. Beautiful day, no turbulence, nothing.

Well, when me and Mom got back to 07C, when I landed, "it was as if God (maybe Dad) put his hand on that big, Hershey Bar wing and set it down so gently, that you couldn't even feel the landing gear spin up." I was almost unsure if we were on the ground. She was never afraid at all.

That was the first time she was ever in an aircraft, as it turned out, the last. I think I did good.

I know the "Hand of God," B.

You're a pilot too. So am I. Got my license in '92. Took me a number of years and didn't do much more after I got my license. While I enjoyed it and would like to do it again, it was a kinda lonely way to spend money in aircraft rental. Yes, a C-152 was my plane also. I took my mom up also.

I did fly some ultralights after that. They are good fun. Far better visibility than a small plane like a Cessna.

I'm a bit of a fan of the Zenith homebuilt aircraft. They have a low wing model and several high wings as well, most of which are designed for STOL -- short takeoff & landing capability.

Did a lot of time in a Piper Tomahawk (TraumaHawk), low wing, out of Smith Field in FW for awhile. There was something else in my logbook, I have no idea what it was. Might be a "secret", who knows? :)

(Edit) Lost a lot of memory when texting woman dusted me off in 2013. Might've been a friend's plane, don't know. I could find out pretty easily, but then again, maybe I don't want to.

I prefer one crisis (or panicdemic at a time). :)

There was one at my airfield, but I've never even flown in a low wing. Looked like a fun plane though.

I'm remembering now my trainer was a C-150, not a 152. Don't remember the difference though. I did fly a C-172 a few times. Same but bigger.

Ultralights are the best for recreational flying.
