What are you up to,

really?

In post Number 2306 someone or other going by the handle of "NEO" can be seen flaunting the use of a semi-colon, correctly even if we grant that what follows it is a sentence and not a sentence fragment.

Whatever next, breathing through your nostrils instead of just your mouth? This sort of uppityness is sure to bring nemesis in its wake.

I plan to stay humble, great as I am. No, sorry, make that, "We plan to stay humble, great as we are." That reads better, doesn't it?

We did the "glass cockpit experience." We did the (Acting) Deputy Chief Pilot. We did the "downrange at the target practice," even. We has beeeeen up on de mountain and we has seeeen de Promised Land. Unfortunately it seems to have been promised to someone else, so that I am back where I started as a bush pilot. Bah! Well, at least it's still fixed-wing, eh? It could be worse...

Are you sure that you can sling a generator under a B-412? Just asking, mind you.
