>> like I couldn't think of a couple of thousand nicer places to be<<

your story makes getting knocked on my a** and unable to let
go of the fence as i fizzled and fried, sound down right tame.
'spose you would of rather been somewhere else.

i got thru my last couple of flying experiences by closing my
eyes tight, putting the headphones on and cranking up Elvis
Costello singing "Oliver's Army". the pertinent line being -
"I'd rather be anywhere else but here today". with a good uptempo
it gets ya a rythym going even as your palms get clammy and you
start to hyperventilate. it's particularly effective if followed by
"We gotta get outta this place if it's last thing we ever do."
