Defintely worth it or something of that sort. A lot of these programs allow you to watch stuff online w/o having to wait for a new movie in the mail or going to the store. With netflix they have a lot of tv shows online. Found myself addicted to shows that I had never watched before.

Man, our crash pad sucks. We sit around the pool, mess with airplanes (hangar and runway in the front yard) Fish and sit around the fire pit (lake in the back yard), cook (big kitchen/nice grill), drink beer (when legal) and tell flying stories.
Reserve here is a blast!

We're just west of ATL, and it's a comforting feeling when we're landing to the east on the PRM's - I can often catch a glimpse through a gap in the clouds and make sure that our resident firebug hasn't burnt the place down. It's a long story, short version being I grew up hanging out here with the guy I crewed for on the airshow circuit. He died in '03, and the place sat vacant for a couple years when his widow moved to town - she's no farm girl. She heard I was back in town to take the job at ASA and made me a sweetheart deal renting the place to get it back in shape and said I could rent out rooms to break even.
Back to the original intent of the thread, which I apologize for hijacking, there's a little extra space in the hangar. Some friends keep their Zlins and Cub here, and I can sneak in an occasional other plane to mechanic on - It's nice, being able to use my A&P while the company pays me to stay home on reserve.
