| August 6, 1999 | Solo | for my birthday |
| April 1, 2000 | Private Pilot's License | in time to fly to Isla Vista (see aviation stories for a hint about why I might want this). Unless I'm a real bonehead, or give up on lessons, or run out of money, there's no reason why I won't make this goal with lots to spare, but it's still a goal. |
