Yea, Yea, I was as happy as a pig in scheisse with my one .5in (1.25cm) paint brush, jar of silver paint, 1lb (.5kg) tube of plastic cement, glue fingerprints, and silvery decals - then youse all came along with CA glue, 37 sizes of paint brush, 142 different kinds of paint, air brushes, microsol & -set, Future floor wax that isn't, weathering details, and now paper seat belts....SHEESE...

It's looking good Mike. I can relate to all of the "bad" influences here. Then again, I enjoy all of you.

So is it true what they say about old dogs being taught new tricks?

Ah, thems were the days!

Learning new stuff is one of the fun things about this hobby. And there's always a TON of stuff to learn! Great job on the seat belts, BTW.

 

[mikewint]

Thanks JKim, your work is very very impressive, way beyond my level of skill. If you stand back far enough they don't look too bad.

 

[Airframes]

Well, they look OK from the other side of the Atlantic - is that far back enough ?
Run away ....................

 

[mikewint]

Darn near, might actually look acceptable from that far...you probably can't see any better than me besides

 

[Airframes]

Ah, but with my new head magnifying thingy, I can see as far as the moon - it's blurred, but I can see it.
Oh, wait, it's a mark on the lens ..............

 

[Wurger]

But your hearing is fine isn't it?

 

[Airframes]

What was that ?

 

[Wurger]

Oh.. since my eyesight has gotten worse my hearing got better. I suspect your too.

 

[Airframes]

Speak up !

 

[mikewint]

So to get this straight you need your "head-thingy" just to see the moon?

 

[Airframes]

Well, I thought I did, but when wearing it, I keep walking in to things !
I asked the Doctor about a problem with short sight. He said, "What's that in the sky there, out of the window?"
I replied "The sun"
He said "So how far do you want to see ?!!"

Give an old joke a home !
