John Kloer (aka OJ)

The Rat Race
Comp Dates from Tuesday 5/31 - Saturday 6/4/05

Every year I come home from the Rat with a few lessons learned, here's a few from this year.

  • There are, and always will be, much better pilots out there than me.
  • Know your gps forwards and backwards BEFORE you launch.
  • The conservative line won't get you to goal.
  • Don't pick your LZ's at the last moment.
  • Know where your stabilo lines are at all times.
  • Drink half your margarita before you complain to the waiter about it.
  • Freelance pharmacists are good.
  • Bo likes women with strong hands.
  • Rae Lynn makes a good den mother, but don't play poker with her.
  • Always sit with your back to the wall when Dean is around.
  • And most importantly...DON'T FOLLOW PIPKIN.
