Default RE: Crow and crosswind?

Ever been in an airplane after a crosswind landing and watched the instructor wipe the sweat off his forhead?

...that's after picking the radio knobs up off the floor...

My all up favorite from an instructor and as an instructor is as follows:

"hmm, that's never happened before"

and my favorite to ask a passenger while on the taxi way is:

"now, how much do you weigh again..."

Of course this is after explaining how critical it is to get weight and balance correct on preflight.

PS. Ever had anyone walk over to you and say, "Hello, I'm so and so with the FAA and I'm here to help you." guarantee you won't want that to happen to many times and some things are better left unsaid, thank God you got away with it and look over both shoulders to see who was watching...as you walk away in one piece.
