  1. Police of "Lighten Up, rules don't matter and certainly don't apply to everyone equally" have spoken.
  2. Knowledge isn't for everyone, obviously, especially those who seem to be proud of their ignorance and resent anyone who doesn't see ignorance as a virtue.
  3. "Fun" in most games doesn't have anything to do with ignoring rules, or reinterpreting them to suit oneself, and then calling people names if one is called out...unless one is a toddler or a spoiled child.
  4. "Hurt" just gives you perspective, so you enjoy more when it stops.
  5. Yup...and google has a mind of its own that seems to get dumber every day.
  6. Change can often make life interesting, though change for the sake of change is just stupid, and stupid has quite a following.
  7. Heaven can wait, but hell is every day.
  8. Uptight or not, words have meanings. SENTENCE: noun A grammatical unit that is syntactically independent and has a subject that is expressed or, as in imperative sentences, understood and a predicate that contains at least one finite verb EDIT: And though a verb can be implied in some cases, please tell the class what verb is implied by "That Girl".
  9. Another of my favorite kits. Sure wish I had a few of the original issue.
  10. Some girls love to run around,Love to handle everything they see,But my girl has more fun aroundAnd you know she'd rather be with me
  11. Girl..."that girl" isn't a sentence.
  12. As little as you need to use, it will all be inside the vent slots. Anybody who looks that carefully at a model, be my guest. But if you want to make it perfect, drill the dash where the vents go, and make certain only the vent ring gets any glue on it, and there's no "overflow". I can be done.
  13. Nice hardware for "Pinky", and a great start updating this blobular old dinosaur of a kit with 21st century bits. Loving those "boring" details too.
  14. Album cover art was often the reason I'd buy a record way back when.
  15. A tiny drop of white PVA "canopy glue" is plenty strong to hold those in place, and dries absolutely clear.
  16. You might want to repeat this at least a couple of times prior to punching the hole. Propellant gas is dissolved in the paint too, and when you release all the pressure from the free gas in the can, more will boil out of the paint. Decanted paint will very often bubble and boil...and sometimes even spray out the hole...even after "all" the propellant has been bled off.
  17. Very nice indeed. I could definitely live with that. The only things I don't like about T-buckets are the lack of front rubber and brakes, but of course you have to go that way to get "the look", and the high seating position most of 'em end up with...sitting on it instead of in it...and fixable.
  18. Beautifully built, and a testament to how good that antediluvian AMT kit really is when it's in the hands of a skilled modeler.
  19. VERY nice, and a convincing argument for Alclad.
