Good ones, that last one reminds me of the saying: There are old pilots and there are bold pilots but there are no old bold pilots.

Actually flew with a guy the other day that landed better without his glasses than with.  He said he doesn't have depth perception without his glasses and flies the plane down on the runway, rather than trying to land.
