  1. We were at my daughter's on Sunday/Monday holiday. My son in law was supposed to bring pulled pork sliders to a Superbowl party that got cancelled. So he froze everything, and made them for us. So we all had all the pulled port sliders we could eat between yesterday and today! He said we didn't even dent his frozen supply! 🙂
  2. Atlantic Mutual Insurance Company is where my father in law toiled for over 40 years
  3. Show me the money!
  4. Desist, thou shalt not be in the arms of such a numpty fair Juliet!
  5. Second hand stores have lots of cool things and occasionally a box of old model built ups or promos
  6. Pigpen was Charlie Brown's friend
  7. Now is a good time to get things done instead of procrastinating for years
  8. The Temu ads often flash a naughty or two! I learned you can buy a full size robotic girlfriend! I asked if she could sand model parts and didn't get a response!
  9. Same here... But Murphy says "Every great project requires parts from a kit you do not own!"
  10. My snowblower investment continues to provide dividends! We were warned about colossal snow overnight and this morning.... eh! A little white on the lawn.
  11. T-buckets are used in England to bring freshly brewed tea to local pubs to sober up the drunkards
  12. Me thinks there will be a riot in Philadelphia tomorrow whether or not the Eagles win the Superbowl.
  13. Breakfast can be eggs, cereal, toast or grass or small rodents depending on your species
  14. Here's what I see.... watching the video it's pretty apparent that diecast and sci-fi is paying the bills. Consider that the diecast is sold in every Walmart across the country and you can imagine the numbers! Model cars are being produced because Tom Lowe likes model cars, especially the nostalgic market. Yes, they are chasing the Baby Boomers as we retire. Every day on the boards you see new names of guys who confess they hadn't touched a model in 30 years but want to do this as their retirement project. So the market for the subject matter we like is growing. This market probably has a 10-20 year cycle and Round 2 knows that. I am happy to the point of giddy about the 1965 Barracuda and 1960 Chevy station wagon. The Demon and Duster are just icing on the cake for me. And we know that detailed kits and maybe even variants like a 1966 Barracuda and 1960 El Camino may follow. You can see the detailed kit intent where the under hood details on the prototypes is correct for the cars. And look at the engine plate... single exhaust on the left... could that be an inkling of a Slant Six? R2 already has the tooling for the Lindberg 64s with the best Slant Six ever tooled in 1/25. I can only hope.

  18. And along with the race, the annual 24 Hour Build starts at noon tomorrow! I will be working on my old favorite AMT 1953 Ford Pickup. Over 225 crazies joined into the challenge. It's fun and some of the folks join the Zoom chat room.
  19. Opinion is the result of an individual's IQ, their life experience, fears and motives
  20. My snowblower repair money has protected the entire county from enough snow to actually use it! Still it's been cold in Eastern PA so we've been going out as little as possible.
  21. weather can be the deciding factor as to whether I emerge from my house and fortunately I have no where to go tomorrow !
  22. It's snowing here in Pennsylvania west of Philly. Looks like I get to take out the newly repaired snow blower! Yay! 💩
  23. Sleeve will freeze if you keep wiping your runny nose on it!
  24. Digits can get frozen so be sure to wear heavy socks to protect your toes and gloves to protect them fangers from frostbite
