  1. I don't root against any team. I just ignore them. Like the Cubs. I'm not "anti" Cubs... just really don't follow the NL.
  2. I like it so far. Nice interior work... can't wait to see it in the final colors.
  3. His first posted photo is backwards. The "Camaro" script on the side of the car is backwards.
  4. How about this? The Yardbirds doing "Dazed and Confused" in 1967, a year before they broke up and morphed into Led Zeppelin. This version uses the lyrics from the original version by Jake Holmes. Recognize the lead guitarist in the "puffy shirt?"
  5. I like that song too... sort of the "softer side" of Plant. Same sort of thing... this is actually my favorite Zep song. Not what you might expect...
  6. Big fan here. Loving the fact that they just swept the dreaded Twins (in Minneapolis!) three games to none. So far so good... 7 and 2 is a nice start. Fingers crossed... Yeah, it's not the same Sox of Konerko, Pierzyinski, Buehrle, etc. that won the WS in 2005. But still... gotta keep hope alive!
  7. To quote Ralph Kramden... hummana hummana hummana...
  8. I think maybe you ought to be posting more...
  9. When I read the title of this topic I had a completely different idea of what it might be about...
  10. Gotta disagree.
  11. Well, for the record, I'm a huge Zep fan. They are definitely one of my top 3 favorites ever. But I never knew the extent of their plagiarism until fairly recently, which I basically learned via watching youtube videos, which of course didn't exist back in the day. I have to say, given the musical talent of Page, Plant, Bonham and Jones, why they had to resort to ripping off other artists is beyond me. Or at least if you're going to "borrow" someone else's songs, give them credit on the album. I mean, some of Zep's songs were such direct, blatant, obvious ripoffs, I can't believe they thought they would get away with it.
  12. Wow... that has to be a very expensive hobby...
  13. There is no matter too trivial for us to chime in on! Just sayin'...
  14. I guess there are a few kits out there in 1/18 scale... but those are more "unassembled diecasts" than plastic model kits, which I think that list was specifically referencing.
  15. Their list is scales of model kits. I don't think there are any 1/18 kits out there. And they did include 1/87.
  16. From scalemodelguide.com: 1/6 RC aircraft & tanks; military vehicles; Engines Only a few military vehicles are available at this scale 1/12 (this is also known as "dollhouse scale", dollhouse furniture and accessories come in this scale) Motorbikes; Cars 1/16 Military Vehicles An increasing number of tanks are being produced in this scale. These tend to either be highly detailed with interiors, or intended for radio control. 1/24 Cars; Trucks; Aircraft; Military Vehicles Cars & trucks dominate this scale but there are a few fighter planes and smaller military vehicles 1/25 Cars; Trucks 1/32, 1/35 Aircraft; Military Vehicles Although these two scales are very close, 1/32 has been popular for aircraft (mostly fighters) while 1/35 has been the most popular scale for armor/military vehicles. 1/43 Cars 1/48 Aircraft; Military Vehicles Traditionally this was the preserve of aircraft models. However, the introduction of a range of 1/48th scale military vehicles by Tamiya in 2004 has made this a popular scales for this genre. This makes it the one scale where there is a wide range of both aircraft and vehicles, so diorama makers who want to display both aircraft and vehicles together will be showing a lot of interest in this scale. 1/72, 1/76 Aircraft: Military Vehicles 1/72 is a very popular scale for aircraft modelers for both fighters and bombers. It is easy to make a large collection of 1/72 scale fighters and for larger aircraft this is the only scale where a lot of detail can be incorporated without the model becoming too big. Military vehicles are available in both 1/72 and 1/76 which is a pity because they are very similar, but there is enough difference to stop most modellers wanting to display both scales side by side. 1/87 Military Vehicles Many are sold almost completed and intended for wargaming. 1/100 Aircraft A few Revell/Monogram kits available 1/125 Airliners: Spacecraft 1/144 Aircraft: Various There is a wide range of large aircraft available. There are also a few models available at this scale in other genres such as spacecraft, submarines and large military vehicles. 1/200 Ships; Airliners Only a few available. 1/300 Airliners Only a few available. 1/350 Ships Probably the most poplular scale for marine modelers. 1/400, 1/600 Ships A few available in each scale 1/700 Ships Another popular scale for ships with many models available 1/1250 Ships Only a few available They forgot to mention 1/8 scale (cars) and 1/9 scale (motorcycles).

    Very nice overall... but you really should have sanded those mold seam lines on the roof smooth before you painted.
  19. Who is this mysterious "we" you keep referring to?
  20. Dan, you and your wife sound like very logical people. I agree with you both 110%.
  21. Root beer colored cars of the world... unite!
