Wow. Sorry to hear of your unfortunate, yet fortunate accident because you’re still around with us. Don’t give up just yet. Yes, therapy is hard but you need to fight through this no matter how long it takes. We’re all here for you.

Not movies but documentaries on Netflix - both worth watching. Since I live in Utica and Rome, NY is about 10 miles west of me and do remember Woodstock was a disaster back in ‘99. Watch Trainwreck: Woodstock ‘99 For all you baseball and Nolan Ryan fans, watch Chasing Nolan. Well put together. Who remembers the Robin Ventura incident back then. LOL!

UAOL is still around? I thought it went away a long time ago.

Now that makes sense. LOL!

The rain will take care of that crush zone….?

Naaaaaaah…..

Snail Pacer….that’s like watching paint dry. LOL!

Now that’s a priceless treasure of a photo. Your mom was blessed to be photographed with a country legend.

I’m sure a lot of you seen this but nothing more idiotic are dumb drivers stopping at either a flashing yellow (thinking it gonna turn red) or flashing red and waiting for it to turn green. Yes, flashing red means stop but to sit and wait for a green light on a single flashing red traffic signal? Hooo boy….. LOLOL

Google it. They’re not known as Chevy Novas in Canada but rebadged as a Pontiac! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acadian_(automobile)

LMAO!

Came across this earlier tonight. Canadian version of the ‘69 Nova

Been watching and waiting to see who’s getting model kits this year. Walmart or Ollie’s. LMAO!

Ever noticed Jay Leno’s Garage has every single episode promoting electric vehicles this season? Makes me wanna puke....

Monogram, Revell, MPC ... especially if they’re vintage. I’ve encountered some pretty awful fit issues with some AMT kits. I absolutely HATE the metal axles in AMT kits... even more so the chassis with rear axle and exhaust systems molded in. Why?????? I’m not much into imports by Tamiya.

Probably buying them on clearance to resell on eBay for retail or higher.

I was thinking about this post today and the more I thought about it, the more how ridiculous it would be for a model kit. There’s nothing with the wow factor under the hood except maybe a big old simple rectangular block of a battery with zero bling. Might as well make it a snap kit instead of glue together kit.

A hard no. Looks like an evil stepsister Ford Fusion.

Same here. I’d love to get a cabin up in Racquette Lake in some quiet cove in the Adirondacks with a little private dock. Nothing like the idea of waking up to the sounds of loons calling in the mist whilst drinking coffee in the early morning hours. That’s sounds so peaceful.

Better yet, what happened to those old molds too. Surely they’re stored somewhere in warehouse waaaay in the back or destroyed. After awhile, the molds do get bad and the reason there so much flash on the sprues. Take the Revell 1/48 scale Black Widow kit for example. They are the old Monogram kit. Got it for Christmas last year from my son. Worked on it for a bit and it was horrible fit. Even the figures had the looks of being suffered through famine. Certainly not like the original Monogram kit which was a joy to build.

Wow... I have never heard of Odds n Ends paints. Those round Pactra bottles cool. I’ve seen them in the square bottles but didn’t know they came in those round bottles. I do remember seeing Boyd’s Colors by Testors back in the 80s. Such a shame back then, there were a lot of choices of hobby paints to choose from. It would great to see someone resurrect and bring back all those colors of yesteryears again to the hobby. Let’s call them Vintage Colors.

LOL! Ain’t that the truth.

Utica Greens with hot peppers too....LOL! You’d be crapping lava soon enough.ROFL!

Here’s the thing.... not everyone owns a snowplow or hires one every winter. Come down Central New York when we get heavy snow. Let’s see how fast you can finish shoveling a sidewalk and a 2 car wide, 2 1/2 car deep driveway with snow pushed in the driveway from a snowplow. LOL!

Heh... don’t shop at Pottery Barn. Hate that store and the missus knows it. Yet, she spends $7000 on a couch and chair. Cost $200 for delivery. WTH!?!? Now she ordered a ottoman that’s gonna cost another $1400 with shipping. Monday, she went with her two sisters back to Pottery Barn in Syracuse. Yup... you guessed it. She plopped $800 on a 5x8 rig, 2 pillow shams with pillow inserts @ $60 each, ( I told her you could have bought the same inserts cheaper elsewhere for half that price), 2 more decorative pillows for the couch at $40 each (a saving of $10 each) on clearance. Anything on clearance and if you buy it and don’t like how it matched to your furniture, you’re pretty much SOL. Meaning and clearance item is non-returnable. That store is expensive. Lamps start at $300 and up MINUS the shades. Never a sale and they rip you off by paying full price on everything. Did I also mention how much I hate Pottery Barn?
