Not me. I'm not big on video anyway unless it needs to be seen and heard. There are many news or sports stories I want to "read" but it is only a video so I skip it. Besides, I get more of a kick reading the comments here and probably more knowledge about the subject from you guys than wasting my time with the video.

The entertaining scam of a text I got today. Long and repetitive about the US Customs having to detain my package due to a zip code problem. USPS can't deliver it until I click on a link 2 times and click ok or some such thing. Funny thing is that I don't have anything coming from out of the country or anything ordered at this time for that matter. Anyway, I get a kick out of stupid emails and texts like this and glad I'm not an idiot to fall for this BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH.

Heller Renault R8 Gordini
TonyK replied to Nacho Z's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Well, it's a Heller kit and I've found them to be difficult. Your model looks good to me and the nice paint job and clean build makes it look better than I would expect. -
Polishing a molded in color body
TonyK replied to junkyardjeff's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I have used some good car wax on model bodies before and got decent results. -
I usually don't like flames but it looks really good on your model. Nice job.

No spiders! Bats are fine though. I used to go out at dusk and see a few bats circling around just above me and really enjoyed it but don't see them anymore. They may or may not still be around as I don't go out there much anymore at night but if it's like many other creatures they've slowly disappeared from the area.

Interesting about the broken leg. You usually hear animals don't survive long when hampered by something wrong. I'm sure you enjoy seeing her after all this time.

Saw the video yesterday and was real happy to see it!

What's with the U.S.Post office these days?
TonyK replied to styromaniac's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
A guy sent me 3 models in separate boxes. I got 2 of them yesterday. Where is the 3rd? All sent at the same time. I sure hope I get the other one today but have my doubts. -
That black one reminds me of the one we had when I was in high school. My mom got him from a friend 2 doors down and I named him Spook. He was great. We'd stalk each other around the house and he'd sleep with me at night. Always remember being at the vet and I'd just have him sitting in my lap in the waiting area. People were amazed I could do that with a cat.

Belly tank racer (3d printed)
TonyK replied to eran_k's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
I like it! The real cars were simple looking and you captured the exact look. Nice job! -
Nice job on the diorama and good photography as well.
-
That's a good one.

I'm amazed to see someone build their own guitar and the knowledge and talent you have to do this. I understand the pleasure you get from this and wanted to know the cost difference of your hand made version and one you'd buy from a store. Also, do you keep what you've built or have you sold any?
-
Nice build and tribute to a great racer!
-
I laughed at your comment about the body but you ended up with a radical looking drag car. Nice work!
-
Haven't seen one of this version before. Sharp build!
-
That turned out real good! Decals that run the whole length of a car are always scary but you did it. Nice.

The squirrels that come to my yard have gotten as bad as my dogs. Most days the squirrels come to the door and/or patio and demand breakfast and dinner. They hang around and get all excited when they see me. Similar to my dogs who won't leave me alone when it's meal time. Of course the dogs are much more respectful and know their place but the squirrels can't be taught with a rolled up newspaper. ?

Death of a gentleman.
TonyK replied to Old Nasty's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Had no idea this happened. Sad I didn't see anything about this until now as he had a great history. Always liked that Scarab. -
A dead mouse in a trap I set out last night. Go out before dark to put traps back in the shed before I let the dogs out and there it is. ? Been chasing a mole around for a couple of weeks so maybe this will be my lucky day.

My annual visit to the dermatologist revealed "I don't like the look of that" comment from him so he cut a dime sized spot from my upper arm and sent it to the lab. Sure enough it came back as cancer so now I get to go back this week so he can cut all around that area just to make sure there's nothing left to chance. He reassured me I'm ok so that's good but gonna cut enough to require stitches and can't go swimming and can't lift over 10 pounds for 2 weeks, etc. Geez! This is a reminder for everyone to add this to the long list of health checkups to avoid anything that can sneak up on you.
