- I'm a happily married charter pilot. I fly Learjets out of Van Nuys Ca. I know that I'm happily married because I came home from a trip the other night and I have 2 5 gal brews fermenting in primary carboys. I walked into our room and said, "Hey, I'm home! Our house smells like a brewery". my wife woke up and said, "I know, it's f***ing awesome!"
