Paradise Lost

My career was dealt quite a blow today.

President Bush signed into law an edict proclaiming that airline pilots would be allowed to fly until they turn 65. Prior to this ruling, the mandatory retirement age in the industry was 60. With no mandatory retirements for the next 5 years, the upward mobility of my career has all but been frozen.

This dream of flight comes not without its nightmares...
