    Missing Loungers Whom You Miss.

    The problem is, I'm a VERY SLOOOOOOOOOOOW builder (seriously, I have things that've been on the bench for approaching TWO DECADES). Fine detail is a buttload of trouble with my fine-motor problems... Tempted to just cheat, buy two of the Wings of Glory gaming-miniature B-25s, repaint them as his...

    Missing Loungers Whom You Miss.

    History Channel Gone Wrong

    Sadly, for me the end of Classic History Channel was when they quit running shows like "Engineering an Empire", "Cities of the Underworld" and the Big Two with R. Lee, "Mail Call" and "Lock 'n' Load." Now, with the end of Burn Notice and how Criminal Minds got flushed down the loo a couple...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    LOL Sanity is overrated... Welcome aboard, Bec and Marco! As for your friends, young lady, if they're the kind worth having they'll acept you for who you are regardless. :) Or, as I responded to my peers' criticisms when I was your age: "And THIS... means WHAT... to ME?" Try to imagine it...

    Makes some of us wish they'd add a CMP West, or better yet Northwest and Southwest, store or stores... I tell tyou, us west of the Mississippi are being unfairly discriminated against! Nice picks!

    Missing Loungers Whom You Miss.

    Just poking by to let everyone know I'm still around--just haven't really had a lot of questions, answers or exciting news on the subjects this site focuses on. On a more positive note and related to the era, a model of a prof's old plane has been eating a lot of my time, but Norm's Six (F-106...

    Happy Drunk/Mean Drunk

    What did the MythBusters find? "Beer & Wine, you'll be fine; Beer & Liquor, never sicker" or something like that? Sorry, anything other than Guinness and I stick to Gimlets, Collinses or Hard Lemonades.

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    Crap, I been kicked to the curb... just not a lot to say re FL-related subjects of late I guess. Oh well, at least now y'all know I'm still alive and kicking...:)
