I really enjoy the plane analogy. I'm a big proponent of finding the martial arts in daily aspects of your life, and this example of staying ahead of the surprise really illustrates that.

Just today I was trying to explain to my colleagues at work (who saw this entry) that the "second home" thing is not so crazy as it seems at a first glance. Alas, apparently I wasn't successful, because they kept on bashing. Uchi Deshi: Thanks for the encouragement and for adding this link to your blogroll.
