Back and Forth

 
Just completed an 11-day, zoom-zoom round trip drive to San Francisco.  My original intent was to deliver my faithful BMW to my son and purchase an E-46 M3 and drive it home. While I had some misgivings regarding my old one passing California emissions testing, research via the Internet gave me some reassurance that all [...]

New Stuff to Look At

Discovered today that I have a scanner, so added several pictures to the bottom of the Aviation page.  Quality sucks compared to the digital ones, but . . .

New Stuff to Look At . . . over here, stupid –>

Dang - just looking and found that I have over 2800 photos on my computer, so thought I’d share just a few of the ones that may (or may not) go with the site.
So, for you navigationally impaired retreads, there are three new pages over on the left  (sheesh!) right -Photos (misc) which is a [...]

OK – So My Age Shows Through

Just posted the Happy day to you, too  and noted that it said “Posted July 24th ”
What the hell? My birthday is the 25th! And I thought it was today – dang! Have to do all this again tomorrow.
And I wrote all of that bragging about how “kewl I is” at 65 . . . [...]

We did receive two new bikes from Aprilia, but not in time to [...]

Emperor’s New Clothes

Well, Dang – again!
I’ve been plodding along, thinking all was well in the world and now I find that like the Emperor, I too, have been running around naked – at least in a computer-wise sense.
And of all people to bring it to my attention, that“weapons-of-mass-destruction-facilitator” (read Gas Passer) Hubie lodged a complaint.
Was he [...]

Public Apology

Once again I have regrettably let my mouth get away from me - misdirected by my somewhat warped sense of humor.
I know it’s no excuse for bad behavior, but the group at Pinckneyville airport is big into the game of “who-can-insult-whom-the-most.” Unfortunately, we sometimes bring that mind-set home and expose, innocent, sweet people to some [...]

Hubie vs. Canary

I used to think that Hubie was worthless as horns on a canary, however I came up with the following:
Good uses for horns on a canary.
1. The horns scare smaller birds off the feeder
2. Rubbing the horns on a cuttlebone gives the bone a better shape
3. Use them to poke the cat in the eye
4. [...]
