    His insects really appeal to me. I'll probably treat myself as well. I passed through Nashville this afternoon.... Hilo, HI to Huntsville (daughter), then car to Ohio. If you were nearby, I assume you heard the sirens. Fortunately, I made the state line ahead of them.

    Not sure if this qualifies as steampunk, but I sure am intrigued with the little critters.

    Show us your vintage home!

    I'm new to FL and have been enjoying the threads. Here's a picture of my house in Cincinnati and a second one with the three new chimney pots I had added last summer. This is 1923 Cotswold Tudor style.

    Mysteries of Lake Tahoe

    ...and for the southsiders, there was Beaubien Woods and the Calumet River. Now there's one river I wouldn't want to go near. The fumes could make you sterile. Thanks, jayem. You got me distracted. Tahoe is pretty and the cold water angle could have merit, but for pure body count, nothing...

    Old smells, that immeditately transport you back in time?

    Gin - back in the fraternity days I over indulged on gin and slivovitz. My "brothers" stood me up between my mother's screen door and main front door, rang the bell, and ran. First and only night I ever spent in a bathtub. Gin will never, ever touch my lips.

    Has anyone listened to any steampunk genre music? I found the Vernian Process (http://www.vernianprocess.com/) - their new single "Something Wicked That Way Went" reminds me of something from Moulin Rouge. I love the common items adapted by folks much more creative than me.

    Mysteries of Lake Tahoe

    Your dad was right! Being a life-long Chicago boy and former member of a fire department underwater search and rescue team back in the 60's, I can vouch for the guns. Every year the dive clubs would show up at the downtown lake front for the annual trash dive. This was always good for 2 or 3...

    What is your favorite aircraft of all time?

    WACO CG-4 Glider (WWII) - Gotta love them cause they were my father's ride to France after D-Day. They were made of cloth and plywood and towed behind a C-47. Per Gen. Westmoreland: "The intrepid pilots who flew the gliders were as unique as their motorless flying machines. Never before in...

    What is your favorite aircraft of all time?

    Lockheed Constellation - I flew Ecuatoriana de Aviación to Quito, Ecuador in 1965 in this queen of aircraft. There will never be anything like this again. Someday when I've been around this site long enough, maybe I can post a picture through the window of flying over Cuba; well after the Bay of...

    Boxes of Books: What to keep and what to pitch?!

    This is killin' me... I have 400+ vintage science fiction paperbacks - each cataloged and bagged. I brought 6 tubs up to the garage last month to finally sell for one money. Fortunately no takers. Back to the garage and now back in the basement. I figure I won't have any pension money left after...
