When I was driving a tractor trailer.... People who would sit on my left with the nose of their car right next to the last axle on the trailer....effectively blocking my escape route if something were to happen suddenly ahead of me. I figured out that they couldn't drive on their own. They were...

"Friends come and go, but enemies accumulate."

That was the opening scene from the movie "Always", starring Richard Dreyfus.

Reports I've read seem to indicate that at least 50 have been built and flown since the plane was originally designed in the early 1960s. I saw three at Oshkosh a few years ago, including the first one built by Dyke himself which he still flies regularly. Everything I've heard says that it flies...

It's 4 pm here in Jersey and it's so dark that it looks like 7 pm. Been raining on and off for three days. I'm growing mold on my north side. Very depressing.

Yup, just like New Jersey. As I understand it, it's illegal to land on the water anywhere in the state, even if you own the lake. There's only one legal seaplane port that I know of, on the Hackensack river not far from New York City. Not exactly a place that I'd like to be flying in the first...

Everything I've ever heard said Donna Summer was a good person and a good mother to her kids. You watch. She'll get next to no attention while that drug addicted Whitney Houston was made out to be a goddess.

Aw c'mon. Been into Sky Acres many times. That's a beautiful runway, even if it is somewhat hilly. Try Pocono-Stroudsburg, N53. 30 ft wide, about 3,000 long. It's like landing on a taxiway. Been in there a bunch of times too.

Well, The Hindenburg would be at the top of my list. But if it's a plane that still exists, my favorite fighter plane has always been the F-104 Starfighter..... and I've never even seen one on static display, much less flying! ...and I'd kill for a ride in one!

I have one box at home running Mint 11. It's not my primary OS yet, but I'm heading in that direction.

You haven't lived until you hit heavy turbulence and the cabin roof pounds the headset band down onto that button, thereby driving that button into the top of your head like a ball peen hammer. Don't ask me how I know this. :cryin:

Most mornings I call her sweetie or Mattie, unless she's in a bad mood. Then I call her a pain in the a--. She usually calls me George, unless she wants something. Then it becomes Honey. ...except when I go out of my way to push her buttons. Then she calls me all kinds of things. :D:D:D After 21...

That knucklehead almost got his head beat in with a golf club! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

And you don't see ANYTHING about this on the news here. All you see are hour after hour of people crying over the death of a drug addicted singer. :dunno:
