F5 Dan: comair and delta are all happening.. so is Orlando and so is the girl.. OU.. may not be back for a while
F5 Dan: strange twisted thing is... none of the bad shit is of my direct doings
Nkwc1: woah...did you get booted?
F5 Dan: bad.. really messed up financial probs within my family and the whole delta/support thing have gone to extremes
F5 Dan: will not be back at OU... earliest til January of 03.. perhaps longer
F5 Dan: I have some ridiculous family and friends... some really messed up friends
Nkwc1: i must be way out of the loop...b/c i don't know about any of this stuff. so you're going to orlando and won't be back at ou for 1/2 year?
F5 Dan: at the very least
F5 Dan: could be for good
Nkwc1: when does this start?
F5 Dan: Delta/ComAir will be good for me.. training and then onto career... with lots of money and lots of privs and hey.. I will first instruct while getting paid and getting world privs.. then onto ComAir in time.. then onto Delta
F5 Dan: this summer
F5 Dan: that is the upside
F5 Dan: downside... I got booted from OU for a while.. (not really sure even as to why.. no hard fact on anything... false accusations.... the OU PD are corrupt and KConnor and JV know something about all this... chris might as well
Nkwc1: that sounds good. what's the down side?
F5 Dan: well.. bye bye to OU and my mother and her rich parents.. tried everything.. and I do mean everything to keep me from flying
F5 Dan: dangerous drugs with side effects.. everything to try to dirty my med background so FAA would pull my med... put me in Griffin without reason for one and a half weeks... tried to inject me with drugs... never happened...
F5 Dan: and I heard these things over the phone.. somewhat anonymously...
Nkwc1: oh my god...
Nkwc1: what in the hell is going on???
F5 Dan: father and brother have and always will be behind me(my gfather was a conn CEO at a chem company and has a lot of money)
F5 Dan: but they had wanted me to switch career paths from day one
Nkwc1: to what?
F5 Dan: when this whole delta thing came to light... my brother and father did what they could to alert me
F5 Dan: just something other then aviation
F5 Dan: because it worries my mother... they're daughter
F5 Dan: who always comes first
Nkwc1: why does it worry her?
F5 Dan: who knows... natural fears of flying.. and it naturally worries my gparents...
Nkwc1: ah...
Nkwc1: so she doesn't want you to do it...but i don't guess she has any choice here...it's what you want to do. yes?
F5 Dan: so today(with my father laughing and grinning when I did this) I called and left a message on my gparents machine saying how I loved them etc.. and said that I was about to call the recruiters of the air force so that I could enlist and fight in afghanistan... my mom of course also heard this
F5 Dan: well... grinning afterwards when my mom was not around
F5 Dan: my mom is going off the deep end because her worries of course will magnify times one thousand if I were to do such a thing.... and my gparents know it
F5 Dan: they tried to have me diagnosed as Bi Polar
Nkwc1: so you're really going to enlist or was that just a joke?
F5 Dan: so I went to Huntington today to get a real.. second opinion.. and my mom was unhappy about that
F5 Dan: hardcore bluff
F5 Dan: Huntington Hospital
Nkwc1: that's what i figured...so she's freaking out about it?
Nkwc1: dude...so what did they say? or do you know yet?
F5 Dan: she has been all over the place the past few days... here is my take.. my gparents for whatever reason do not want to support it but either them or my father will eventually have no choice... and they know it... my father and her parents have not liked each otehr for years... my gparents have all the money and do not want to see my mother worried
F5 Dan: they chuckled when I told them that they were diagnosing me with Bi Polar 1... which I do not have... and they knew it.... I just have to go to a psychologist around here to get something solid written for the FAA
F5 Dan: part of me is actually wondering.. especially... after today.. if she is my real mother
F5 Dan: mothers day did not really take place and my father did not want me to buy her anything
F5 Dan: because there were times when I had my father cornered
F5 Dan: and it was as if he wanted to say something.. but just would not
F5 Dan: and my brother gets treated so well by them
F5 Dan: and I look nothing like my brother... sound a look a little like him.. but not much
F5 Dan: and
F5 Dan: so... I am thinking possibly... I am either (a) adopted... (b) father had an affair... (c)... mother did.. not likely.. does not make sense... (d) financial mess that is trickeling onto me in a real hardcore way
Nkwc1: woah... hold on for a sec.
F5 Dan: yeah.. it is a lot to digest
F5 Dan: brb
F5 Dan: alright.. I am back with a beer in hand
F5 Dan: the alcohol companies probably thought that they really could have made some money on me over the past few days... for the most part.. they were wrong
Nkwc1: dan, i think you need to let this stuff settle down. if you dad is on your side...don't let you mom's worries get in the way. unless there is some reason you have to have your mom on your side...there is shouldn't be any reason to let this get to you. just do what you want to do. the faster you can get financially independent...the less you have to listen to them.
F5 Dan: yeah.. and that is very true... within a few months.. I will be financially independent
F5 Dan: I could even do financial aide this fall
F5 Dan: and summer
Nkwc1: well, that's good. something to look forward to.
F5 Dan: but man oh man... I could have been killed because of what they had me on
F5 Dan: yeah
Nkwc1: what was that?
F5 Dan: the minocyclene mixed with the propecia both had side effects that I was unaware of.. both have been in the toilet for a while
F5 Dan: u do remember hearing about the kid who crashed into the B of A tower in Tampa??
F5 Dan: my mother knew of these in order to dirty my med record
Nkwc1: yeah, i remember that kid... what does that have to do with your mom?
F5 Dan: so... that how twisted my life is
Nkwc1: i thought propecia was a baldness drup?
Nkwc1: drug
F5 Dan: those drugs.. she was the one who suggested I take them.. and my brother has told me she pretty much knew the side effects
F5 Dan: side effects
F5 Dan: I was losing a touch here and there... really not much of anything and my hair is full now
Nkwc1: ah
F5 Dan: well... suzanne
F5 Dan: sorry.. wrong IM
Nkwc1: so who put you on those drugs?
F5 Dan: so... that is my twisted life... upside.. I get to check out the facilities for free in a week..in orlando... paid by delta/comair.. go storm chasing with my bro and go to his graduation from med school before returning to train in a kick ass place and prgram in orlando
F5 Dan: father was never in the office the dermatologist never stayed for more then a minute
Nkwc1: and the side effects mimic bi polar?
F5 Dan: my mom was the responsible one...
F5 Dan: oh yes
F5 Dan: depression
Nkwc1: and you're off them now, right?
F5 Dan: and I was very depressed... and I could not figure out why... fall semester... since Heather came along last winter... everything.. and I really do mean pretty much everything has been going my way
F5 Dan: hell yes
Nkwc1: good...don't take anything unless you get a good second opinion...
F5 Dan: exactly....
F5 Dan: I am not taking anything right now
F5 Dan: and even the docs at griffin were hinting at me
Nkwc1: depression is another thing...
F5 Dan: if I really was Bi Polar.. it would be an up and down thing over days... I have been happy since December
Nkwc1: depending on the cause...they have good meds for that. my dad and two aunts have been on various depression meds in the past and they have worked wonders.
Nkwc1: depression, that s
Nkwc1: is
F5 Dan: my mom I believe might be depressed.. my gma probably is
Nkwc1: my dad has a touch of bi polar... he goes through ups and downs on a daily basis
F5 Dan: yeah... exactly
Nkwc1: well, i guess all i would suggest is hang in there...don't let your mom get to you to much...and make sure to get 2nd opinions. ;-) sounds like there is a lot to look forward to...esp this orlando thing.
F5 Dan: yeah... definitely
F5 Dan: Delta and ComAir have been calling my name
F5 Dan: and the travel privs... trickle down to friends and fam...
F5 Dan: in a few months... I can go wherever I want.. whenever I want.. in the world.. on Delta, ComAir or ASA.. for free!!!
F5 Dan: so if I decide to go to Paris, Casablanca or Marrakech for a day :-)
Nkwc1: :-)
Nkwc1: that'd be nice
F5 Dan: tokyo.. tel aviv.. carribean... fiji
Nkwc1: perks of being a pilot
F5 Dan: pick out a place.. and let me know
F5 Dan: perks of being an instructor.. that is what is so awesome.. it starts at the instructor level
F5 Dan: because technically.. u are then on the delta ladder
Nkwc1: sheesh... i should say. ;-)
F5 Dan: and instructor leads to ComAir and then leads to Delta
F5 Dan: :-)
Nkwc1: so you going to be around norman much this summer?
F5 Dan: I'll try... I will be chasing the plains in a few days for a week and a half
F5 Dan: Norman.. yeah... I'll try to stop by
F5 Dan: my brother is out chasing now.. and I will eventually meet up with him
Nkwc1: when are you hitting the road?
F5 Dan: hopefully by wed.. i will be in the southern plains for a week and a half.. before they fly me down to Orlando for the night and day.. then my bros med school grad.. then back to FLA.. then we'll see
Nkwc1: well, good luck chasing. once you're out of norman...your odds imediately go by a factor of 10.
F5 Dan: oh yes :-)
F5 Dan: I have already informed my brother of this
F5 Dan: are u going to be able to get out there at all?
F5 Dan: and if u happen to run into Greg Dial of SPC... say hi to him for me.. I met him while at the remote control airplane field and of course we got talking for a while... really nice man
Nkwc1: yeah, probably going to ky in july. any maybe chasing in the southern plains of the chance comes up again.
F5 Dan: it would be nice to run into you
Nkwc1: will be getting a new place in the fall
F5 Dan: Norman.. well.. on a non-chase day :-)
Nkwc1: ;-)
F5 Dan: cool... where at?
F5 Dan: lol ;-)
Nkwc1: not sure yet...probably should start getting that narrowed down
F5 Dan: hmm..
F5 Dan: well... Commons, Hampton Woods and Forest Pointe are all cool
Nkwc1: yeah. have looked at those. most apts in norman kinda suck. but, then again, most anything is better than kraettli
F5 Dan: hell yes
Nkwc1: well, i'm going to be doing some computer stuff this evening. i'll be online.
F5 Dan: take care then... and good luck with the comp stuff...
Nkwc1: yeah, you too. relax some and take care.
F5 Dan: will do... and u take care as well... adios...
Nkwc1: c-ya
F5 Dan: take care
