Harry P. Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 BTW, to tie this thread into the overall theme of model cars, "Baker Street" certainly fits, as one drives a car down a..........., street!!!!! Well, by that logic the greatest model-car related album ever has to be "Exile on Main Street"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Carson was from Nebraska, but I came from Iowa, the land of some of the world's best dirt track stock car racing, and the Knoxville Nationals. The best thing to ever come out of Iowa was nice fresh Muscatine Mellons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodiak Island Modeler Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Actually Johnny was originally from Iowa. From Wikipedia: "Carson was born in Corning, Iowa, to parents Homer "Kit" Lloyd Carson, a power company manager, and Ruth Hook Carson. Johnny Carson grew up in southwest Iowa until the age of 8 years old when the family moved to Norfolk, Nebraska, where he learned to perform magic tricks, debuting as "The Great Carsoni" at age 14." Best things to come from Iowa? 1-My wife. 2-Richie Hayward, drummer for Little Feat, born in Ames. 3-The late, great Tommy Bolin, guitarist for Zephyr, Billy Cobham, (the great jazz drummer), the James Gang, (post Joe Walsh & the Dominic Troiano), Deep Purple, (post Ritchie Blackmore before the original breakup in the 70's), & solo, born in Sioux City. RIP Tommy. 4-The Knoxville Nationals. 5-Tiny Lund, winner of the 1963 Daytona 500, born in Harlan. RIP Tiny. 6-Ernie Derr, Ramo Stott, Don White, Dick Hutcherson & Ron Hutcherson, all from Keokuk, all winners & some champions in IMCA, ARCA, USAC & NASCAR stock car racing. 7-Walter, "Radar" O'Reilly, from M*A*S*H, born in Ottumwa. Ok, that last one was in jest. I just wanted to make sure you were paying attention!! Mark, I'd forgot that Johnny was born in Iowa and then moved to Nebraska. I'm getting old and my brain cells are dying, you know. You mentioned the drivers from Keokuk, and I'm sitting here trying to think of the names of the drivers that I drove against back in the seventies, and not having much success.

Zoom Zoom Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 The story behind this photo: That was a "halloween photo" put on the former Hobby Heaven message board. That year a guy showed up on the board requesting help with Bare Metal Foil. He could barely type a coherent sentence; either no caps or all caps, no punctuation and crazy run-on sentences. Long story short, he was having a miserable time with BMF. He asked for help, and many people attempted to help him figure it out; he got the best advice possible from many sources. Instead of thanking people, he got belligerent and nasty because he was still unable to get good results with the stuff. People emailed him with help and got nasty replies. I was one of them. He kept posting about the foil as if he had never posted about it before, people continually tried to help him even after their heads were bitten off, eventually it was clear that without face-to-face intervention he was never going to be happy! I doubt he ever did learn how to apply BMF, and with his belligerent attitude, his lack of aptitude, and never once offering a "thanks", well...the idea for the photo was pretty timely. A "self" portrait of a belligerent guy (whose name became legendary over there) covered in tinfoil and bandages, sticking his tongue out at everyone. Accompanied by a crazy run-on sentence attacking all who dared give him such "bad" advice. You had to be there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
