  Buen idea there Rainman, you wanna do the translation?
  By the way, there is plenty of bad Spanish in my books and Spencer did not show the dedication. But I dedicate Taking Mexico Flying to all those who speak and write Espanol better than I do, and I ask their forgiveness.

  Hey Ole ... how about having the books published in Spanish as well... all that South American / Central American / Mexican market ...muchos pesos ... then the quotes in "spanglish" will have to be translated backwards ;-)
  
  Just visited your blog ... too funny !!! great stories... wish we would have hooked up back in my hang-gliding days around the south american landscape! Never flown Mexico ... wish to do that one day ... vist Vico at Valle de Bravo ... and others
  
  Great work

  No, stick with the Chevron for cooking- that synthetic stuff is hard on the arteries from what I hear.
  
  So who's on trial today? Probably you no doubt.
  So cold there too huh? Good thermals then, probably. Flyin your Falcon, or the blade wing?

  I don't know anything about them fancy oils. Can you cook with that Amzoil stuff? Chevron makes great french fries.
  
  Yes Joe is here, holding court today. Not much pool activity due to frigid weather. In LA!

  Hi Ole,
  
  I'd been using the Penzoil aircooled, but I'm buying a trike that has had Amsoil Dominator, which is a synthetic blend, so I was thinking of sticking with that. Everybody you talk to likes something different. I just know you've been doing this for a while, so I thought you might have some insight.
  
  Are you still at Sylmar? I've flown there a few times. Nice site. I was hanging around with Joe Greblo for a while, and would go over to his pool across the street from the LZ to cool down. Have you seen him around?
  
  thanks,
  Vince

  I have always used Pennzoil or Chevron. Getting harder to find now but I have a phone number for Canyon State Oil and they will ship. What do you use Vince?

  Ole,
  I tried sending you a message, but it crashed so I'll try this way.
  I see versions of your book on Amazon, "Living Dangerously" and "Recipes for Disaster". Are the stories different, or just different cover art? Are you cranking out a serial?
  I read through all your stories that you used to post on your webpage until a year ago. But they are gone now, so I guess I'll shell out some cash to read them.
