Yea, Buckethead is an awesome player! His ego gets the best of him sometimes, though............... He had a chance to play for Ozzy, but he wouldn't let Ozzy call him by his real name, only "Buckethead".............

I believe the '90 Mustang LX Drag Car has Drag Lite wheels..... Weld 5-spokes, right?

If you could build a band, who would be in it? Here's my line-up.................... Les Claypool from Primus on bass, Danny Carey from Tool on drums, Dave Matthews on rhythm, Chris Robinson from The Black Crowes for vocals, Buckethead on lead guitar.......

Yea, I guess there's more than one way to skin a ship...... err, rig a cat...!! I am still curious as to tightening the lines with the wood lime solution, if you care to share..........

Phil, that's a nice ship.........!! I've been gluing the knots all along, I think that where my sagging is coming from is the masts flexing.........

That one is easy.......... You have to buy 2 packs of wieners and 3 packs of buns to have enough to pair up equally.

Thanks for the tips, Michael......... What is wood lime, and where can I get some? The more lines I run, it's causing the others to sag. Your tip sounds like just what I need to do. Do I apply the wood lime after I've ran all the lines? or can I do that as I go? Thank You................

Nah, friend....... I'm not. Should I be?

My Mom, sister, and I are all sending her one........ I too hope she gets a BUNCH of cards, from all over!

Wow! That's impressive.............!

Friend #2 goes to visit Friend #1, who is laying on his death bed. Friend 1 says to #2 "When I die, I want you to take a bottle of the finest whiskey, and sprinkle it over my grave" Friend 2 says, "Sure thing friend, but I have but one question....... Do you mind if I pass it through my kidneys first?"

Thanks for the advise, Michael! I'll try as you suggest, you seem to be trying to help me in earnest and I appreciate that........ The standing rigging is "part B" of the instructions, right? It's broken down into steps, and if I take it a step at a time, it shouldn't be to hard to do.......... Skill level 3 of a ship is a little more challenging than level 3 of an auto kit.......!!

Hey, friend and thanks! Yea, there is some rigging to do still......... I'm doing this per the instructions, I doubt it gets all the rigging, but I do want enough of it to make things look more interesting..........

Just thought I would show you guys what bit of progress I've made on this........... Still have one more mast to add the sails to..! Comments welcome.........

This really is sad news........... He was a huge influence on a lot of people............

Steven Colbert........

You guys ever hear of a group called Hum? They had a couple of albums, the one that made it big was titled You'd Prefer an Astronaut....... It had a couple good songs, my favorite being "The Pod"............

Thank you, guys.......! I won't be building any more cars this year, I've got a ship to finish

Thanks for the nice comments, fellas.............

I think I had a pretty productive year!! I just shot these pics this evening....... I don't see where I'll be building any more this year, so I thought a Year in Review was appropriate... Any and All comments are most welcome....................!

Thanks for the links and recommendations, guys.......... Clayton, it's funny you mention Neil Young developing a music service, earlier this year he pulled all his songs from Rdio.com....... now I guess I know why...!

Thanks for the helpful replies, guys.........! I've opened an account with Rhapsody, it's a dollar for the first 3 months, and I can always cancel my subscription if I don't like it....... Thanks again, and Happy ThanksGiving!

My 12 year old niece loves to read! and this book would be ideal for her, since she also likes to learn.............

Thanks for that, Clayton............ I've tried Spotify, maybe I'll give Rhapsody a go.......

I need some recommendations for a good music streaming site. Rdio.com is shutting down their site soon...... The thing I liked about them is the fact that I could choose an album and listen to the whole thing if I wanted. I would like to find something similar to that........... They were bought out by Pandora, which I dislike, because they let you listen to one song, then try to "recommend" new music similar to what you were listening to......... What's Rhapsody like? Thanks for any help..........!!
