I had a bad feeling that things weren't going to go Denver's way when on the first play from scrimmage the center snapped the ball over Manning's head...
Yeah, that was a "what the ...?" moment.
-
Let's hope that was the case. Because if that was the real Broncos, I don't know what to think!
That they got their kiesters handed to them on a plate?

So ... how fast do you have to drive to be in the left lane? 10 over? 20 over? 30 over? There's always some jerk who thinks it's not fast enough.

Lessee ... "Number One Offense in the NFL" vs. "Number One Defense in the NFL". Obviously Denver was not prepared for the defensive onslaught that they would face. And give credit where it is due; Seattle's offense tore Denver's defense apart. Now Denver knows what they need to work on.

As interesting as it is to watch you two pick at each other's product, perhaps you would both be better served to do it via pm or email, that way you wouldn't look like a couple of schoolboys having a weanie wave. Just sayin'.

hello, does anyone have a Hess training van like the motorhome they could measure for me. Thinking maybe 1/25 scale or close?
Thanks. Drew
Hey, Drew! It's just a tad over 11" long, a little under 5" tall (to the top of the A/C units; 4" to the roof) and right at 4" wide (not counting the mirrors)

Yeah, a chunk of corrugated cardboard as a stiffener was probably not the best choice. I can see how that might have gotten jammed in the sorter. Thinner stock would have been better. You've contacted the sender, right?

Yeah the guy put himself out there, so I guess he gets his turn on the "internet barrel", nice that you're all doing it here behind his back where he can't see it tucked safely behind your keyboards. Everyone going for the Internet Bravery Merit Badge this evening?
So ... Invite him here to defend himself! I'd tell him to his virtual or actual face that while he is saying it's an "Awesome pro built Grumpy's Toy", his photos are saying "Yeah, not so much."

And when all was said and done, the true prophets were here. Didn't see any Patriots nor any Niners themed cars posted. It's all good, though; my Rams are mid pack this year and hoping for some decent draft picks and a productive off season.

My late wife was disabled, and used a van. We once came out of a store to find a motorcycle parked in the blue-striped area set aside for ramp access. I kicked the motorcycle down, prompting the offending owner to mouth off and threaten me. He rethought his policy once the knife came out, and I asked him if he wanted to dance. I was rather mean-spirited when faced with situations like that, and they did happen regularly. The police, when called, NEVER provided any assistance in such situations. Ultimately, I found far greater satisfaction in solving the problem myself.
Lessee ... for the crime of parking next to your van you commit vandalism and assault with a deadly weapon? You are not a person I'd want to know.

Wow ... so glad thats real I couldn't beleive anyone spending time at bench to make something that ug....Gotta go to the paint booth!!

I am SOOOO glad I use Firefox!

It sounds like you have used up (or come very close to the limit) the allotted amount of uploaded image storage, which for each member is 48.83MB. Move your cursor over and then click the down arrow to the right of your screen name in the header bar, then click on "My Settings", then "Manage Attachments." You can then see how many attachments you've uploaded, and how much space they are using up.
Interesting. Out of curiosity I checked mine. I've used 0 bytes of my 24.41 MB allotment. So, half of what you say I have is already gone and I haven't used any of it. Could be a technical issue?

Well guys, that days is here. My sister, 52 years old, is fighting her last fight. I'm preparing to leave the warmth of my home and my family to drive to a hospital an hour away to see my sister one last time. She won't know I'm there but I'll be there because my nephew will be there and he will need me. If you can, spare a kind thought or, dare I ask, a prayer. I will be kindly received. That's all I've got. Thanks for (virtually) being here.

I had a storefront for over 15 years. I closed because I couldn't compete with the Walmart down the street.
I must have not been a "smart" store owner. I find that statement to be a little insulting Tom.
I guess I missed the part where Tom said Randy Earle was not a smart store owner. I've always found the"LHS can't compete with Walmart" thing to be kinda confusing. My local hobby shop is located right across the interstate from a Walmart; was for the bulk of the 13 years I worked there and still is. When Walmart actually carried models and supplies they were never competition; we went on giving exemplary customer service and carrying a full line. Meanwhile, Wally carried a dozen or so kits and a basic Testors paint rack. If you can't compete with that ... well ...

Well then, I stand corrected. I'm kinda slow and I don't really understand how posts about Christmas lights, what irked you today, what people do for a living, musical groups, etc. seem to be any more "about discussing real and scale model cars and trucks" than pointing out (with illustrating photos that admittedly have shock value...that was the point after all...to get noticed and to get folks to THINK) the potentially tragic consequences of a moment's inattention, but I'll take your word for it. I guess my understanding of "Off Topic" is fatally flawed.
Imagine that, Bill; off topic in the 'Off Topic Lounge.'

Data point from my part of the world. Fotki albums that were totally restored yesterday are now missing something on the order of 30 - 50%. Looks like the servers are having startup jitters.

Bill ... is that a twerky?

It's not "on the internet," it's the Merriam-Webster website. Merriam-Webster. As in the dictionary people. Maybe you've heard of them?
Yep ... heard of them ... the OED they are not.

From Merriam-Webster.com:
flout verb \ˈflau̇t\
: to break or ignore (a law, rule, etc.) without hiding what you are doing or showing fear or shame
flaunt verb \ˈflȯnt, ˈflänt\
: to show (something) in a very open way so that other people will notice
: to show a lack of respect for something (such as a rule)
As you can see, while "flout" may be the more precise word in that context, "flaunt" (according to the second definition) would also be correct.
It's on the internet, it has to be true!

Dunno, Danno ... looks to me like it might be a multi-piece affair. The front stub looks like it's not attached.

I vote for a sticky for East Central Missouri!

First, I don't have a horse in this race and, yes, it is easy to look under the poster's avatar to see where they're from. What happens when they're from "Witness Protection" or "Down Two, Then Left"? Where are these places? I can assume they're from the good ol' USA, but they might not be.

"I only had two beers and three brains, officer..."
But it looks he's drinking Tobasco sauce.

I think a huge part of the blowout was underestimating Seattle. "Too young, too inexperienced, 2nd-year Quarterback, ad nauseum." Young, hungry kids can surprise you.
