A billionaire, playboy, philanthropist (AKA Greg Weld).....in my dreams.

In reality.......a Pilot (if you didn't already know) who is gone more than he's at home. No it's not glamorous, the layovers are never long enough to see the sites. The hotels usually suck and I am always looking for some place to do my laundry. I am gone for months at a time and the pay sucks. But I do have one heck of a view from my office window and I don't have to put up with rush hour traffic! :yes:
