A peek at Mark's inner dialog

A peek at Mark's inner dialog
Me: You need to stop building planes. Time to start flying more.
Me: But look at all those designs I want to build. Besides, it’s raining out.
Me: You already have more airplanes than you can fly at one time now.
Me: Yeah, but I have a variety of planes. Flying the same old plane every time would be boring.
Me: You don’t fly much anyway, so how could it be boring?
Me: I’m going to fly more when the weather gets nice. Besides, look at all this balsa I have sitting here. I need to use it up.
Me: The Balsa has been sitting there for 25 years, it’ll be good for a few more. Besides, there’s more to life than building airplanes.
Me:
Me: The yard needs cutting. The house needs painting. The cars need tuning.
Me: The parts for these plans need cutting. These almost finished planes need painting. These engines need tuning.
Me: What’s the big deal, it’s only a model. Why do you want to do it so much?
Me: But, all the OTHER guys on the CEF are doing it!
Me:
Me: Look at all those engines on the shelf there.
Me: Yeah?
Me: If I don’t use them, it’s like I wasted all that money buying them. I NEED to build planes for them all.
Me: You’ve been talking to the wife’s inner voice again, haven’t you?
Me: Why do you say tha… I mean, noooooo.
Me: You’re hopeless….
Me: I’m happy….

Re: A peek at Mark's inner dialog
Funny Mark,
As a kid I used to build plastic car models. I loved it until I was done building and then I would put it on my shelf and there it would sit. Often I would look at it and wish I could play with it.
Ask yourself this... What's the point of building a functional flying model if you never fly it?
Fly now while you are young and build static models when you retire.
