  1. Past post by Tim (nice name, btw) had kind of a melodic rhythm, almost poetic!
  2. I have a Syrian hamster that is about 6 months old............. They live about 3 years or so. They like to live in solitude, and are the type of pet that isn't needy or that craves attention. He does love to run around in my apartment in his ball! Here's a pic from when I first got him..... I also have a puppy, a BIG puppy, that I adopted from the shelter. I think he may be Pyrenees mixed..... Got him May 31st. That pic is from when I first got him, too........
  3. Surroundings around windows and doors in old antique houses are my favorite things to paint....
  4. Shower after shower is what we've been dealing with the past three days; there was even a warning of flash flooding........
  5. Make the best of it, Bill, if that's possible, and keep in mind that you're almost retired!
  6. Movie props are often times made by model makers.........
  7. 'Song Sung Badly' was NOT a Neil Diamond hit, more likely a Miley Cyrus one.........
  8. Jim, was it a 'Super 6' that you had, or one you built yourself? The Super 6 had an aluminum intake along with other goodies......
  9. 'World' sounds a lot like 'whirled', which is kinda what we are as we spin through space...........
  10. That model looks too nice to take apart! I believe I would just leave that one together and maybe start with a new kit for your second attempt....... I've been thinking about getting that kit and building it as a street car. It would make for one badass pro-touring, I think!
  11. Man should be measured not by what he's capable of, but by what he ISN'T............
  12. I've sprayed the black on the interior parts today.......... Nothing really exciting, but I did want to show the products used and how it turned out. I sanded the primer with Scratch-Free Comet and a tooth brush, I'm sure that helped with how smooth everything turned out. Then just two coats of the matte black......... I know folks here are always looking for different sheens of black to use......... The shine on the rear seat shows the best in the pics............
  13. Life very, very rarely gives anyone a second chance............
  14. Do not give in to the dark side, grass smoker, I mean grass hopper!
  15. Thanks! They're just painted Rustoleum silver with a black wash followed by a rust colored wash......... Pretty easy.
  16. Working on a '70.5 Camaro from AMT that I was given as a gift.......... So far just the engine is done. Like most of you guys, I have several projects in various stages of completion...
  17. Sailors usually have quite the vernacular..........
  18. That Nova would look pretty unassuming if they were to change the wheels............. It looks like it's even column shifted. Cool Sleeper!
  19. I usually work on something until I need to wait on things to dry......... About 10 or 15 minutes at the time, several times a day.
  20. I finished a 24 hour endurance race today on my driving game........... 200 laps of Nurburgring. I was averaging 7 mins. per lap, my fastest lap was 6:43. Won a Formula car and a cool 1.2M credits.....................
  21. People letting their dog just go where ever and not picking up after it........... I need a dog as a companion so I'm not alone with my illness. These other people with dogs don't even need them. They just want to have one because I do.
  22. 'Curry Scurry' really doesn't sound like something you'd want to have happen to you!
  23. I believe I've decided on what wheels and tires will go on my little project here....... I've been working on this kit for a long while, it keeps getting stalled for whatever reason. So far I've taken the top off of the cab, shortened the bed, removed the hood sides, and deepened the rear wheels with some sleeves.........
  24. Blast around the track one time for me!
  25. Crazy for feeling.......... soooo lonelyyyyyyyyyyy?
