A lot has happened since my last post. But the most important news is my acceptance to graduate school. I start in January at the Mendoza College of Business at the University of Notre Dame. Go Irish!

This past weekend I attended the Experimental Aircraft Association's (EAA) Annual Fly-In in Oshkosh, WI. It had been 20 years since I last attended and much has changed since then. I no longer aspire to be a fighter pilot. I no longer want to be an officer in the United States Air Force. But one thing hasn't changed and that is my appreciation for flight and my desire to one day have a pilot's license.

One day I will put together an entire list of how out of touch John McCain is with the average American, but this rant for today will suffice.

Yesterday after leaving the Mayo Clinic to have a small spot removed from his face John McCain chose to give America a lecture on using sun screen and called for all Americans to see their dermatologist regularly. Wouldn't that be nice Sen. McCain, but there is one problem. Not all Americans have access to a dermatologist and not everyone can see one when they need to.
