EVERYBODY NEEDS SOME HELP


It may be that sometime along your travel through life.........you just needed to rely on someones help...........but never wanted it to be known.  It's nothing very astonishing , that's part of human nature, one just does not want to be seen as being helpless, useless or just down right in need to lean on someone to "make it through this tough life"

Having said that, I just don't care whether or not YOU happen to feel if this applies to you or not...............simply........IT DOES.   Think back,
you learned by watching and than imitating.  I personally watched my mom and dad and learned through what they did.  OH sure there came a time........in my case......my teen years ........where I just happened to think that...........enough learning......now it's time for doing since I felt I had learned all there was to learn.  How stupid since to this very day the dawn brings new adventures and new learning.........even to a know it all guy like me.

No matter how we try to admit that we have finally learned ALL THERE IS TO KNOW  we can still be taught...........one more thing.  This goes for animals as well.  Check this video out and you will see, that even that little puppy has to learn..........how to go down stairs.

Now......not only does needing help apply to doggies  but MOSTLY  to people.Think about it, each and every time you enter the door of an aircraft you will hear the crew come on with instructions pertaining to safety aboard.  It never ends. Are you the person that will just not LIFT YOUR HEAD up from whatever to listen to these announcements?   Not me...........for even I................the one that knows everything will once again..............LEARN.!!!!

Not to change the subject...............but..............a Christmas time treat is the decorating of a Gingerbread house.  I did that one year with my grand kids, and I must admit.............I really needed that Martini at the end of the evening. There was....literally icing and pieces of gingerbread all over the kitchen. In fact.......I noticed that Gabbi, the golden retriever was a little bit heavier and  had a white beard........ but it turned out OK.  You would never believe that I ever knew anything about architecture if you saw these houses.  
Anyway, We started to import the gingersnaps from a great company in Northern Sweden and they bake these awesome gingerbread hearts. I've been thinking of ways to decorate them and have found this to be a challenge.   How about these?

Just something a little different
See you next week!!!!!!!!!

SEATTLE............MY TOWN


I will never forget that one day, I was brought into the office of the Vice President of SAS, North America and that one statement and question was posed to me.  Vito, we would like to have you go to Seattle and open the station operation  there.  Would this be something you might be interested in?

John, thanks for that opportunity......It turned out extremely well.  I want to share of little of Seattle with you all.  This little collection of photo's of Seattle and what it has to offer along with the mellow tones of Kenny G.  brings to you my town.  The photo's are the work of a good friend of mine........Dave.......who is actually an amateur photographer but really good at this hobby.

I want you to sit back with full screen and enjoy this.  To those SAS Crew members that follow my blog............hope it brings back some really fond memories.
