No I am not looking for a free ride. Just trying to get an understanding of the people in the business. Sorry if I offended you.

Ouch. :) Gotta admit I was sort of a Daly fan back in the day. Then again, I'm not much of a golf fan.

Of course I could just drop $20's on the counter until they say its enough. Well, if I could drop $20's like they came off my backyard tree. Crud, did I just let my secret out? Seriously, thank you for the replies. I might go visit one of the LVK schools. Gotta water that tree...

I introduced myself as not a pilot and not likely to ever be one. Thank you all for helping to answer my dumb questions. Really appreciate your patience with my layman terminology. My father bought me a ride in a glider in the mid 70s at the long gone Fremont, CA airstrip. I so miss the...

Thank you all for the replies, appreciate the enormous knowledge here. You are an awesome group. Even the b!tch!ing back and forth has value. Regardless what you all think of him, I still miss @Tom-D.

I'm still not clear on this. Is "gal/s" OK? Wow, June Cleaver. Who else recalls her telling Ward he was tough on the Beaver last night? Am I out now or can I ask one or two more dumb questions?

Another dumb question. First off, sorry about my layman terminology. Wondering about Gyrocopter/Gyroplane speed/useful weight and safety. I know I can ask over on a rotary forum (Hey Vance!), want opinions from a different group. Seems like some of the Gyros have same engine but not the...

I miss @mscard88. He posted a lot of good stuff, regardless of the controversial humor. I also miss @Tom-D. He started many interesting discussions. Then again, I don't really belong here anyhow. Maybe I should go away too.

I recall my grandfather in the late 60s thinking of selling rabbit meat in vending machines. Every few purchases would have a pearl in it. The idea was 'housewives' would buy the meat and work themselves towards a pearl necklace. Grandpa passed away in the 70s fairly wealthy, most of the $$...

When I saw this F-650: http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/enthusiasts/show-%e2%80%98n-tow-2007-ford-f-650-when-really-big-is-not-quite-enough/ar-BBBHRRr?ocid=iehp I though of the old "Go Big or Go Home". Then recalled Ted already went Big and Took it Home. :) Still thought some of you might like...

Business class get an HP Workstation. Best laptops I ever used. Awesome machines. Consumer class go with HP Envy. Nothing else HP. Yes, I used to work for HP. Hope the best for them.

All beautfiul women. Barbara Bach belongs in this list.

Oh crud, I posted the 'shake in glass or jar' method in one of the other egg threads before seeing this... So far has worked perfectly for me several times.

I have occasionally had problems with hard boiled breaking up while peeling them. Always pisterns me off. Just recently came across this 'perfect' peeling method: Put hard boiled egg in a glass or jar with a bit of water, shake it a bit and done nicely. So far has worked for me everytime. Once...

And from my younger days many years ago: "Redheads and Red Handles" "Adjustment Of Attitude" "Auguring In" "Boring Holes" - minds out of the gutter; doing a lot going nowhere. "Coming From Together" And finally after "Finding The One" "Cost of Certification"
