I didn't have a choice about this paper. Have to take, and pass English 3 in high school. :( My teacher told us our paper had to be on American Lit, so I chose imagery in Poe's "Cask of Amontillado." I hate it, but its the topic I like the most, and arguing with my teacher is pointless: he has a Ph. D, is an associate professor of English at Rowan University, and has taught me almost everything I know about how to write. My grades on papers went from 65-75% in English 1 and 2 to 85-95% in his class.

Its a pretty neat idea but I would rather have a Columbia 400 if I had 500k to drop on a plane. I wonder what the operating costs are per hour on a turbo prop lancair compared to a Columbia 400 because at the FBO that I work at 100LL is well over 4 bucks and Jet A is around 3.70 a gallon.

Cheers,
Bill
