Wonder if he confessed before he went.

I have seen several my first in grade school on the playground using a cardboard box. Our daughter-in-law in Indiana heard all the hype on how animals would react. Cats slept through it the dogs lazed around like nothing was happening and her chickens kept roaming the yard pecking at bugs and grass in the yard. The squirrel kept trying to climb the snlinky on the bird feeder post. Nothing unusual at all. Their kids all had glasses supplied by their school and came home saying it was kind of boring. LOL

I had one and my grandma said I was too old for it and a lot of other stuff gave it to my cousins while I was away with a neighbor to the Winter Nationals. A year or so later was out to my aunts with grandpa squirrel hunting and it was down by a brush pile smashed up and rusty. She also gave them my Matt aDillon six shooter and holster, Wanted Dead Or Alive Rifle and Red Ryder BB gun. Like everything of ours the got, they destroyed them.

We got something like that, I always just delete them and go right to my account to see if there is a problem. Never use any links in emails.

Not an unsimilar experience for us. Wife always looks for that first robin of spring and gets all excited, except this year it was when it bounced off her side of the windshield as we drove to town. Was really windy and a truck went by in the other lane.

Well stalled out because of a missing part. Hope can find one soon. So this is where I'm at. Top is just sitting on still need to do the trim.

98% done and just realized it was not in the box! Traded for the kit several years ago, it had been resealed and never bothered to check it.

Ah yes, that dreaded model room black hole! LOL -
Probably last WIP post on this one. It is going together. Just worked on the taillights. Used old foil out of a cigarette box . Been using that same piece for around 30 years and still have a lot left.

1st of 2014! Just finished it today. I wouldn't have bought the kit myself but one of my sons bought it for me so had to build it. Glad I did as it is better than I thought it would be!

Got the stripes on finally. Did the sides a couple days ago and finally got brave enough to do the roof stripe! LOL
-
Cool old rail! Remember, the real thing was just as simple in those days!
-
Been working on it on and off on days my left hand isn't twitching as bad. Doing the foil work now. K Just not sure on how to approach the white stripe yet.

Friendly loveable Squirrels..
OldTrucker replied to A modeler named mike's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
We live in a 55+ housing that has 4 triplexes. They posted a notice to stop feeding the squirrels. We never have, I still concider they rats with bushy tails. The lady that lived next door woukd feed them all the time but she recently passed away. The squirrels would sit on the porch of her emply apartment and jump up and hang on the screen looking in for her really tearing it up. New lady has moved in and one squirrel would sit on the porch rail and bark at her every time she came out the door and she would shoo it away. Well last week it was sitting on her rail screeching really loud and when she opened the door to shoo it away it jumped on her and bit her on the cheek and ear! Took me an hour to chase it out of her apartment while my wife treated her wounds. She went to the doctors office abd got 4 stiches in her ear. They just seem to get more destructive every year that goes by. Rarely see red squirrels anymore and that used to be what most were around here. -
I've seen sellers at car shows turn white when someone shells out a lot of cabbage for an old sealed kit and stand right there and open it up! I have done that myself a couple times had one guy offer me more to buy it back when I said I was going to build the kit he sold me.
