  1. I'm sorry. Very good idea, but in today's world, I would not walk across the street for a $2500.00 scholarship. The amount is just too small. Rent almost anywhere is $1000.00-1800.00 for a small place. I don't see it moving the needle much.
  2. I remember some chatter at the time the 4 door Supernatural kit was announced, that the Car it represents was an Uncommon variant and not used for Taxi/ Police or light commercial service. A Neat car in it's own right, but not useful for much else in the 1 to 1 world. There are probably threads discussing the kit and what exactly it is, but I'm not finding them. Somebody with more interest could search for those comments and prove (or disprove) my recollections. Discontinuing the kit, may just mean the the market is currently saturated, and the kit sales have fallen off to the point where there is no need to keep it in the lineup. Nothing sinister, just marketing. Even the H.L. in Bakersfield has a few of the kits.
  3. Spoke too soon about the Bus. It has a 20/25 minute window when It arrives. 17:10 or 17:25, when ever it gets the driver assures me, "I'm not late, I'm right on time" Grrr. Took 2 hours to get home yesterday, 1.5 hours today. Not fun.
  4. It's a 1/25 Model Car.... It's easy to forget that sometimes.....
  5. My first day on the new job went well. Very Busy, but Well. And I got the Bus Ride to work situation sorted, and and got my day's off for my VA Doctors appointments approved. (Always a hassle when you start a new job, and have a handful of VA visits already scheduled) Going to be work involved learning the details, but learning new things keeps you young. Right?
  6. I love it. It looks real. Good Show.
  7. Nice Builds. Izzat the Old Monogram 1/48 Corsair?
  8. The thumping noise from the dryer is what alerted me to the problem. Nothing is bent or warped, so I may be okay.
  9. I washed my Wallet. I hope the magnetic stripe on my ID cards isn't ruined. I'm upset with myself. I normally check the pockets on my jeans. Had some kind of Brain Fart.... Old age, or just distraction? I just don't know. Well, I needed a new SSN card anyway.
  10. I think part of this comes straight from Plastruct too. That is a lousy, but cheap bottle they've been using for many years. (since they first started selling the product?) It is a very old bottle design, but inertia means they have never changed bottles suppliers or shapes. So, we have to adapt to them.... I've since moved to other cements and have left Plastruct behind.
  11. Thanks for this info, Dave!
  12. He says it better than I can. Just Wow!
  13. But, I love this Camaro. I built several when I was in High School! I did not know Revell had boxed it. Now I want one......
  14. I got the 1/48 Scale (ex-Lindberg) Curtiss JN-4 Jenny now in the Atlantis box. Molded in a Shocking Green, it is a very simple and not very accurate kit. Very Nice Decals, though. Now, looking for the (ex-Aurora) now Glencoe 1/48 JN-4 Jenny kit.
  15. Homemade Salisbury Steak, Mashed Potatoes, Mixed Veg, and Shortbread Cookies. Life Is good!
  16. My Favorite Movie of all time! I was born the year it came out!
  17. Update. I came up empty on my search for those parts this morning. Sorry!
  18. Well, as my Dad used to say... "Askin' ain't Gettin'"
  19. Well, I'm wanting Saskatchewan plates. I'll start looking for those. I know Hank Yarbo drove a Ford, but maybe he had a Mercury before he got the Ford. That's my story, anyways! ?
