I can navigate ... as long as there's some kind of connection to those satellites that tell you were you are, so you don't have to worry about maps and stuff. And why do sailors persist in calling them charts anyway?

No idea why it is upside down. Zoom in and you will see that we are well equipped.

You know I've told you about the merits of Tahiti in the past. I was playing around with Flightradar and copied this; unless Mrs Hog really likes exposure, compare the traffic to Papeete (just about due south of Hawaii) vs Hawaii, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Except for flights to and from the other French Polynesian islands, I've never seen more than maybe 2 or 3 flights headed in to Tahiti at the same time.

Fricking Florida drivers, they should be shot if they leave the state. Doing five under, in the fast lane, in Atlanta. About 10 of them, all spaced out.

If you're in Atlanta, you obviously don't know the rule where you are allowed 5 lanes to the right to weave in and out of traffic to pass slow moving (less than 85 mph) cars.

If you have someone doing five under in the left lane, the person next to them is invariably going five slower, and so on and so forth. I was doing 50 in a 70 at one point, with no reason.

Took about 20 miles to get around all of them.
