Good golly Gosh - I have forgotten, yet again, what my post was going to be!
There are planty of planes fying around - must be an airshow, either happening or this weekend perhaps - lots of training to be done!
Aha, here is the elusive post!
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.’s reference to the ‘impossible.’ He said, ‘When faced with an impossible task, act as though it is impossible to fail. If you’re going after Moby Dick, take along the tartar sauce.’

Just keep it tidy
Keep it real!
A great way to start the day and continue the year(s) ahead!
Praat van die duiwel, dan trap jy op sy stert!
In Pre-addendum style; then I am, maverick,
"This is the day which the LORD has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24"
22:42 1. "Cup of joe" is an American nickname for coffee. The phrase goes back to the mid-1840s, and is of unclear origin, though it is possibly short for "Old Black Joe," the title of a popular Stephen Foster song. In any case, it predates Josephus Daniels, the Secretary of the Navy who banned the serving of alcohol on ships in 1914.
Another possible origin lies in the birth of America's taste for coffee, which developed in the 19th century after tea was no longer available from British merchants. The phrase may have come into the American English language via a misunderstanding of the French word chaud, which means "hot" and is pronounced similarly.
2. Josephus Daniels (1862�1948) was appointed Secretary of the U.S. Navy by President Woodrow Wilson in 1913. Among his numerous reforms of the Navy was the abolition of the officers� wine mess. From that time on, the strongest drink aboard navy ships was coffee and over the years, a cup of coffee became known as "a cup of Joe".

It is all good...
Yes,yes, yes!
And I love my B.
Mene mene tekel upharsin - the writing is on the wall!
- in the Biblical book of Daniel
And this is the writing that was inscribed: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, and PARSIN. This is the interpretation of the matter: MENE, God has numbered the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end; TEKEL, you have been weighed on the scales and found wanting; PERES, your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.[3]
That very night King Belshazzar is slain, and Darius the Mede becomes King.
IN ADDENDUM: Pronunciation: (mē'nē, mē'nē, tek'ul, yOO-fär'sin), [key]Aramaic.
numbered, numbered, weighed, divided: the miraculous writing on the wall interpreted by Daniel as foretelling the destruction of Belshazzar and his kingdom. Dan. 5:25–31.
INADDENDUM 2: Bridge over roubled water - Simon & Garfunkel,- I will ease your mind.
