Patience

I have little and what I used to have is wearing mighty thin! Thank God my BIL is only home 2-3 days a week or I'd be in jail for murder. If he asks me "When are you leaving for NZ?" one more time I'm going to write it on a PostIt note and staple it to his forehead. I've already threatened to have his nipple pierced, a long chain attached, and the other end fastened to his glasses; put a shock collar on him and when he asked me the same question for the 3rd time, hit the button. Here's a few of his questions: 1] What kind of airplane are you flying out of Portland on? 2] How long does it take to get to LA? 3] How fast does it fly? 4] How many people does it carry? 5] What's the seating like inside? 6] How far does it take to get off the ground? 7] What size crew does it have? .......I have just started making up answers: 1] Airbus 300..real answer..I haven't the foggiest. 2] 2 hours 36 minutes 3] 452 mph 4] 176 plus 4 children under the age of six 5] Naughahide, alternating rows of 3 and 4 seats on both sides 6] 4, 291 feet 7] 10 plus 2 relief pilots
