Look at that weathering. Caught in the last tsunami? Thrown in the water by Godzilla? Whatever the case, looks great!

Did NOT get a ton of bench time in this weekend. Plus 25 temps and sun mean I'm outside! Got a bit of hiking in, got a lot of BBQing in, got the firepit fired up. Good times. Daughter also competed in a big Ukranian dance festival over the weekend. Two performances, two gold medals. She does NOT get her dance skills from me.

Just finished re-reading Who Built The Moon by Christopher Knight and Alan Butler. Most people will write it off as nonsense, but this stuff fascinates me. The authors of Civilization One return, bringing new evidence about the Moon that will shake up our world. Christopher Knight and Alan Butler realized that the ancient system of geometry they presented in their earlier, breakthrough study works as perfectly for the Moon as it does the Earth. On further investigation, they found a consistent sequence of beautiful integer numbers when looking at every major aspect of the Moon--no such pattern emerges for any other planet or moon in the solar system. In addition, Knight and Butler discovered that the Moon possesses few or no heavy metals and has no core—something that should not be possible. Their persuasive conclusion: if higher life only developed on Earth because the Moon is exactly what it is and where it is, it becomes unreasonable to cling to the idea that the Moon is a natural object. The only question that remains is, who built it? Currently reading This Is The Noise That Keeps Me Awake. It's the autobiography of the band Garbage. Pretty awesome so far. I read a lot of music biographies, and very few do I really feel like they've given me insight into a band. This one is like a genuine glimpse into the band. It's great.

It only took me 30 years.

Anyone can go fast in a straight line. Cornering properly, braking zones, plus acceleration...that's where the real fun is! -
Excellent work on this one!

CBP: Radwood 2018 - AMG Mercedes 500SL
iamsuperdan replied to iamsuperdan's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Got a little more done over the past couple of days. Getting there. And the more I look, the more ideas I get for some extra details to add. I'm enjoying this build. I managed to decant my spray paint and get the wheels done. Weird, looks blotchy in the pics. Reflections maybe? On the stereo last night... Pop Will Eat Itself. One of my fav bands of all time. -

Very nice! I had a 2016 392 Scat Pack with Shaker hood. Awesome car. Get involved with your local sports car club, and do some autocrossing with it. You'll love it! -
I wish we could! It's crazy dry right now. Fire bans all over the place. Going to be a tough summer for forest fires and brush fires if we don't get some moisture. in the meantime, I'm enjoying the sun, and my shorts, and my flip flops!

I wish we had some shows up here like that! -
How Old Are You
iamsuperdan replied to iamsuperdan's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
For the record, I'm 44. I don't act my age that's for sure. And I only feel old in two situations: First, when I hit the volleyball courts. My knees feel 44. Second, when I'm talking to my 22 year old lot attendant at work. I'm literally old enough to be her dad. Without it being like "Wow you were young when you had her!" -

It doesn't matter. But if you read the Future Of The Hobby thread, this is relevant. No one is forcing you to participate. But I don't djent! I just like more bottom end! -
Yeah, you maritimers have just been getting hammered this spring with the flooding! And in BC, the Okanagan area is getting a little freaked out about water levels too. Glad you're okay!

Inspired by the "Future Of The Hobby" thread. Just curious as to how old everyone here is. Don't need specifics, just interested in the general age range.

So umm...not to sidetrack the gaming thread... But what guitars have you got and are you selling them?

I'll bet something could be rigged up! Racecar = no airbags!!

It's weird. I get that error message if I post from my home PC, but if I post from my iPad at home or I bring my work laptop home and post from that, then I have no issues.

If I was into it more, and I had the space, I'd be doing this. Hit up the junkyard, buy a real dashboard and bucket seat, weld/fab up the controllers.
