OK JG, here is what I see (although I am not a doctor):
Diagnoses: “RC Modeler/Flyer”
Symptoms: “Have difficulties thinking about anything that does not include “rudder, aileron, high/low needle, etc.”
Addictions: “Very addictive, usually one try is enough”
Occurrence: “Most visible during warm season (late spring through early fall on the north. Possible year long in warmer climates) – especially at the open areas. Know to evolve into new mode[l]s during cold season.”

”
Cure: “NONE known or mostly ineffective”
Other problems: “Absolutely NOT covered by any insurance and NOT tax deductible (even after first 7.5% of AGI - actually I wonder why

Suggestions for the relatives/friends: Jeremy you are lucky one!!! And you guys will decide jewelry or new model (which is in this case A CHEAPER option)!!!
Welcome to the club JG!
