  1. I suspect there will be lots, but not until post-convention. By early week, we should be seeing a fair amount, I'd think. I intended to go this year, but it just didn't work out, so now I'm planning on 2016 for sure, down in South Carolina. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that I can actually pull it off. Should be roughly a 10-12 hour drive from here, more or less.
  2. It seems that's about all I have to look forward to, Harry. I really try not to be bitter, but it still shows through sometimes, and today is one of those days.
  3. Early retirement kicks in in two months, I'll be able to begin to repair my life then.
  4. Perhaps the rings are shot.
  5. My roommate (an otherwise great friend) is being a total (insert whatever extremely derogatory word as you see fit) today, acting like a complete and utter child, and since I'm stuck here with no means of transportation, that irks me,... immensely. I cannot wait until I have my mobility back.
  6. Very odd. I guess we'll just have to wait until all the post-convention photos get posted.
  7. Odd, the HL store I visited a week or so back, was stocked to the rafters.
  8. Who would I have to contact to ask for MMVA contest rules clarifications? I asked for assistance on the facebook page, but no one ever answered.
  9. I've been using Firefox for years (currently 39.0), and have never had real issues, with the exception of flash player problems, which Adobe seems to have now (finally) corrected. Only if you specifically set it to.
  10. I had a similar problem yesterday (Photobucket though), and my image would just never load, so I ended up uploading the image from my hard disk, as drag/drop would not work either.
  11. True. If I keep having these "senior moments", I'm going to get very frustrated. I really could have sworn that it was in Cleveland,... glad I didn't bet anybody.
  12. From where? Those are the kind of deals that I need.
  13. You're right. Good thing I didn't go, as I would have driven to the wrong city!
  14. Thanks for the link, there are always a few outstanding cars there.
  15. Yes, it's the only convention that I'm aware of in Cleveland right now. Is there another? I'll check where you suggest, so thanks. (Every national convention I've been to (only 3 so far), have had tons of car models, but I've seen nothing on facelook either, lots of aircraft though.)
  16. Oh yes, of that I am sure, but for ceiling hangers, that's OK. I just want a few allied/axis air combat scenes hanging up down here, just like I did as a kid.
  17. My vote is in for the TN dragster set. Doubtful I'll ever buy one, but that's the one I'd prefer of the three, if I were to buy one.
  18. I'm surprised to see no coverage of the convention in Cleveland, unless they're somewhere else that I have yet to discover. There are usually gobs and gobs of car models present, but so far I've seen no photos.
  19. I like it.
  20. This is very cool. Nice job.
  21. Like I said, you may be absolutely right, Snake. I had always thought they were the same too, so perhaps I can also look for a C scheme for this, though I did find a B scheme that I'm OK with at the moment.
  22. I just grilled a rather large platter of thick pork chops, and that pleases me immensely.
  23. On this particular kit, fit is not all that great, not at all typical of what I've experienced in the past. OK, photo has disappeared, and I cannot copy from PB, but it was a shot of fuselage/wings all taped together. I hope you enjoy my description, and I'll continue to elaborate on what my photos look like, since you won't be able to see them.
  24. Most of the C models, seemed to have the vertical tail fillet, Snake, and none is present in the kit. I'll have to look into it further though, as I had always thought they (the B and C) were the same too. Well, interior is now painted a funky green. Not ZC, but it's OK, as no one will ever see it anyway. (I love airbrushing!)
