My favourite is "Dumber than a box of rocks" which he used more often than not to describe himself,looking at the pics accompanying that quote you just knew he was not giving himself nearly enough credit for his skill & ingenuity,just wish he didn't get so down on himself.I use the quote mainly to myself when I do something dumb,helps remind me of some one I would have really liked to meet,trust that the use of one of Gary's less positive quote will not offend as that was never my intention although in some contexts I think he wrote it tongue in cheek,best regards,Pete Bradley

I was thinking about this thread when I was perusing the "Are P-51d's Over Priced?" thread......
