Sorry to make an incursion into your deal. But I gotsta know what happened to Cribb. Usually my days started good, may have problems later, but explosive decompression, Coke puked out.....then? I’d never have chili before a flight again.

Okay, finally caught up. Burned out my lasered eye sockets so must retire for a while.

Great news regarding Rudy. This is a good Q day.

Later, FReeQs.

I took it as he peed his britches.

Maybe I misread?

Re: "I gotsta know what happened to Cribb."

Was in an F86 at the time and the canopy came unlocked, slid back slamming my helmet against the headrest, while the cockpit became instant grey and all the junk on the floorboard went flying out. Fortunate for me, the canopy slid back to within a couple inches where it was supposed to be. The oxygen system went full-pressure, making it difficult to talk and be understood by center when telling I was making an emergency descent. The only bad thing about the whole ordeal was that a lot of the carbonation was in my bloodstream and it was screaming to come out also - like the bends from deep-sea-diving if you come up too fast.
