Thanks for your comment!

Very interesting. I have heard from other readers via email too, this is way more common than I ever thought!

Still learning how to cope with it, will try acupuncture next, why not!

My fun story on it is the time I bought a new tv and almost returned it because of the high pitched sound even when it was off. After I wrote a lengthy nasty email to Visio, I unplugged it and figured out it was in fact coming from my own head! Another 10% added to my VA disability…

It was Christmas peak time (Dec 24th-Dec 26th),used two different reservations, one night under Gold (mistake) and next couple of nights under Diamond. Was assigned King Deluxe room on ground floor during the first night. Room was OK, I like the options of staying on Ground floor (due to nearby kids club, pool and free food in lounge/restaurant and stayed there during the whole trip. They offered me to upgrade to the Ocean view deluxe room on 3rd/4th floor. I declined. Reason I like Conrad Bali better than GH Bali is close proximity to the local food/shopping/restaurants/massages. Bali Collection near GH was a big rip off. Also found a good uber driver after we arrived in Bali and hired him for our day trips to Besakhi temple, Rice fields tour, Elephant safari trip e.t.c. He was an excellent guide plus amazing person. I can provide his number if anyone is interested. He basically shield us from hawkers/local guides BS. Whenever I or Mrs needed to go out Kuta for shopping and other errands, he was mostly available as he lives in Nusa dua.

Well, not really. My understanding of the law for operating a car is that there is a legal limit beyond which the driver has been “driving while impaired”, and a higher limit beyond which the driver has been “driving while intoxicated”. The latter is far more serious, but unlike going 48 mph in a 55 mph zone, both are crimes.

But you’re right-I was being sarcastic. My point was: Why isn’t any alcohol in the system of an on-duty commercial pilot cause for immediate termination and revocation of license? I guess there’s some logic to a lesser charge for driving a car since you can only maim or kill yourself, your passengers and handful of people. But to have tolerance for someone with a 100 passengers in his hands seems foolishly lenient.

See you in the morning, chief.

A long long time ago, when I was only a “Loco in training”, the family would fly out of TIJ to ZIH where we had access to a condo at Las Hadas. Always flew AM (which dad called AeroBurro) because MX (remember them?) had once lost his shotgun.

Anyway, sitting in the restaurant at TIJ one trip and the booth next to us is a group of three AeroBurro pilots. Fairly loud, talking about who knows what because my Spanish then, as now, was pretty darned bad. As we’re getting ready to go, I notice there are at least 3 shot glasses in front of each one — and the bar maid is bringing them another round.

Two of those pilots flew us to ZIH…

Maybe I’ll try the acupuncture thingie, thanks! I have nothing to lose!

300 night in the same hotel, wow! Hotel should have a “GringoLoco” suite by now!
