  1. "Orbison" sounds like it could be the name of a nuclear powered flying hotel in some parallel reality.
  2. It's a good day to be alive, in spite of those who'd rather whine than be appreciative of their blessings.
  3. Found a NOS promo of my new-to-me S10 Blazer, same color except for the gold lower 2-tone. Too cheap to pass up...kinda like the deal I got on the real one.
  4. Pigs with wings = swine flew.
  5. Buying from eBay idiots is bad enough. You must have 10 times the patience of Job to sell hundreds of items a month.
  6. Chopped (done well) is almost always better. Looking good so far.

  9. Them pigs is wearin' lipstick agin.
  10. Him would seem to have abandoned him's boy parts.
  11. "Exactly" seems to mean different things to different people, which can interfere with precise communication.
  12. Snake Bite Whisky is a heavy metal blues band from Oz. .
  13. Fryer Tuck's should be a chicken restaurant where the waiters dress like Robin Hood.
  14. Gum chewing while walking was one of humankind's earliest multitasking achievements, and to some it remains elusive.
  15. "Die trying" is a pretty good motto.
  16. Days will be getting longer again after the Winter Solstice on December 21.
  17. Well, if you just print to order, you could do any scale someone wanted. I know of several 3D printers who print to order, payment in advance. I'd think the problem would be getting your frame price down enough to be really competitive with buying '32 kits that have a lot of other parts, and still make some profit yourself. There's something of a market for '32 ford frames in 1/12 and 1/16 as well. I'd certainly buy at least one of each, more if they were GOOD. 1/8 is covered with the Revellogram Big Deuce kit parts, but they're kinda spendy, so there's that too. I have bought 3D parts that are gooey messes prone to warpage, or are brittle, and other 3D parts that seem to be very stable, so apparently no-warp quality CAN be done if you know what you're doing.
  18. Space 1999 featured Barbara Bain, a very beautiful woman in my opinion.
  19. I've used tapered and straight dowels.
  20. Wait for it...wait for it...oh dang; missed it.
  21. That looks pretty trick to me.
  22. Thanks. I'll pick one up.
  23. Torture is realizing I really am getting old, and I just might not actually live forever.
  24. "Doggie" names like Spot can be kinda funny if given to cats, as Data did with an orange tabby.
