They'll recognize that. And now -- now timberland waterproof boots must look to the future. Let us heed the voice of the people and recognize their common sense. If

I hope all you people who want to buy these helicopters can fly better than you can spell, because helicopters require a lot more skill than flying a plane, which requires a lot more skill than driving a car, which requires a lot more skill than riding a bicycle, which requires a lot more skill than riding a donkey.

Luckily for you, the skill levels are commensurate with a capacity to fork over the moolah and so you can save your bacon.
