    As I've posted elsewhere, EAA needs to rethink traffic on Thursday mornings, which have been the chaotic departure date for years. EAA probably needs to have a 3 hour window (7-10?) where they don't allow joy rides (talking to you, warbirds and Trimotors) and prohibit arrivals, whether GA, Military, Warbird, or Alien Saucer. In addition, they need to prohibit repositioning of Boeing Square aircraft if those movements impact traffic on the N/S taxiway and/or impede departures. They might also do well to have marshallers (sp?) on-site by 6:00 on Thursday.

    Hoping something does happen with this. I was in the Thursday morning conga line. Packed and ready with no place to go until noon, then a 30 minute taxi. I realize that some had it way worse.

    I was a disk jockey when this song first came out. I took it into the production room, and bleeped out every occurrence of the word, "Shaving Cream."

    "...I stepped in a big pile of [beeeeep]

    "[Beeep]
    "Be nice and clean
    "[Beeep] every day and you'll always look keen...."

    Seemed to make it more risque....

    For the younger persons in the crowd....
