You know, now that I think of it, you do have a good voice for radio.

You're no Ted Williams, but pretty darn good. ;)

Wow that's really good.

I find it so bizarre when I hear myself on voice mails or anywhere else. I think I don't realize how FAST I talk.

I am a licensed private pilot (currently... not active :-( ) and I remember one of my first flights ever coming back to Brainard Airport in Connecticut in the morning from Block Island. I called into the control tower requesting permission to land... and the controller literally came back with "Can you slow the hell down? I have NO IDEA what you just said!".

I'm convinced only the closest people in my life, and my coworkers, understand me when I speak, haha. And that's only due to repetition and getting used to it.

I majored in communication - had to go through all the voice stuff.. You do it well..

Listen Dog, little pitchy at the beginning, then you slammed it. You are here to win.

Sorry, just kidding. Too much American Idol with the wife and daughter.

Sounds great. I will have a Tucks and the escargot please.

I talk fast on the radio too but that's because I learned talking to NY approach. When I'm down south it's almost maddening how slow the controllers talk.

Yeah, my in laws have a condo in South Carolina, and everything is sooooo sllllooooowwwww. Plus I'm 99% certain I have ADHD. I'm awfully hyper... sometimes I talk so fast I need to stop mid sentence and catch my breath.

I want to go flying again at some point> Too many expensive hobbies :???:

When I'm down south it's almost maddening how long it takes to even put cream cheese on a bagel..

My brother is a pilot and it's crazy how professional he sounds when on the radio.. :)

Good seeing you yesterday! I will be at Loon Monday, we'll meet up if you're here!

Yeah, I'll probably be there Monday. I'll pm sunday evening.

Thanks for the hospitality, hadn't been in there in years, I love that place. That house brew was pretty damn good also.
