Spent an hour looking around my model work bench for a small decal sheet for a 1/25th scale soda pop machine. Just painted the machine so the decal sheet should be around but can't find it.

The magazine that I still haven't got after they sent them out 4 weeks ago. Contacted them for a replacement and the person is out until Saturday and she said would send it out then. So that means even more of a wait. <sigh>

Great picture of Ozzy with Halloween coming up. 😄

Had wind and rain all day yesterday. Lots of debris from the woods and other trees around us. What a mess. I deal with this a few times a year.

Oh yeah. I think I remember you could go to the gas station on whatever day your license plate ended in an odd or even number. And wait in line!

Yep, remember her very well on Lassie and Lost in Space.

Freaky. That spider is translucent. Or maybe just an albino.

Waiting for a magazine that some folks have said they got on October 3rd. Sent out from Colorado on September 29th and they told me USPS said to allow 4 weeks to deliver. Some get it in a few days and I'm waiting weeks. Makes no sense.

Great job on this model! One of my favorite cars and driver.

The squirrels here don't hibernate. They just fatten up for the winter which means they bother me more to toss food out for them.

The few times they talk to him at NHRA events, he seems real good. I sense a little mellowness in his manner but otherwise it's the same old John Force.

Yeah I watched it for a bit and got bored with a lot of crappy cars. Switched to my 2nd favorite sport..... hockey.

I recently pitched an almost full can of Rustoleum primer because it was clogged. A new spray tip did nothing so I assume it was clogged in the stem. No more Rustoleum for me. My local department store carries a ton of Rustoleum paints and some no-name brand too. I've used the no-name brand with no problems and it's half the price. It also has the standard tip. I only use these big cans for things like chassis and parts that don't require perfect paint jobs.

Wouldn't you think they'd fix whatever causes this?

Always fun to see someone building something different and you did a nice job on them. I've built a couple of these type of models in the past and they were nothing but fun. Thanks for sharing.

Reminds me of the cat we had when I was in high school. Got him as a kitten from our neighbor in October so I named him Spook. Used to sleep with me every night and he was a feisty one. Thanks for reminding me with your pictures.

Tough call as they all have certain qualities that I like but gonna go with the last one. The detailed engine really grabbed me and some other details I can see I like.

Thanks for posting this. Something for everyone.

Trampolines sure are safe these days. I remember when they had exposed springs with open gaps between them. If you strayed off the mat you might slip through those gaps or just pitch yourself completely off the thing!

Pretty much every night at some point. In fact I'm listening to one now at 5:30 AM.

I try to plan ahead and have bodies painted and other things that need sprayed such as chassis and interiors so I can do all my brush painting during the winter in my garage. Usually do some figure painting and possibly a diorama project. My garage isn't heated either but I have a small heater at my workbench when it gets uncomfortable.

Went to a nice restaurant last night for our 42nd anniversary. First time I've seen a 3% charge on a bill if you use a credit card. Who doesn't use a credit card these days?

I've heard of using hay or straw but around here people use peat moss, a little topsoil or some other purpose made covering. Just saw a yard in my neighborhood where the owner put down fresh grass seed with nothing covering it. Not a good idea.

Nice model and photography! Great looking wood too.

More of a "pleased for Rush" than me. They are going to do a 12 date reunion tour next year with a chick replacing Neil Peart. Looked her up and read lots of good things. What an exciting gig for her!
