    Robo Knees

    I have one! It is awesome!! I'm a geologist and when I would do field work, my knee would swell up to the size of a soccer ball and never really go down again until I'd been not doing field work for a week or more. With my new knee, there are days when the only thing that doesn't hurt is the...

    Is Crazed Pilot a Scam?

    This exchange makes me sad. I see a disgruntled customer with whom communications were not great and a frustrated supplier who was struggling to deal with circumstances beyond his control and felt the communications were adequate and not paid attention to. No win for either. One of the hard...

    Do you name your plane?

    Sherbet, for obvious reasons if you look at my avatar. That pic was taken before I had it painted, but I kept the original paint scheme. The plane was named by a pilot acquaintance of mine who had a plane called "The Grape" because it was purple and white. My motorcycles have had names...

    What is your daily use car

    2014 Camry Hybrid. I waited until 2014 to get one because they had to figure out the trunk space. The early hybrids had the battery in the trunk, leaving little space, and the trunk space was what I liked about my all-gas Camry. They finally figured out that trunk space mattered to Camry...

    Top Gun 2

    I finally got around to looking this up. I did not know about that. That does put a whole new spin on that scene.

    Stoopid Stuff

    Well, I just got back from a long road trip driving a 31' Class A motorhome towing a Jeep Grand Cherokee. In other words, I was driving at least 6 tons of vehicle. Where do you want me to start on the stoooopid stuff? My personal favorite was the motorcyclist, girlfriend on back, neither...

    Top Gun 2

    I just saw the movie and loved it. I think it's as good as the original. And there is at least one very quotable line in it: "You told me not to think!" If you haven't seen it, you'll know what I mean when you do. The reaction was priceless.

    Top Gun 2

    I LOVED Ford vs Ferrari. Christian Bales was amazing in that movie. Can't wait to see this one, as many of my pilot friends who have seen it loved it. We're going today.

    What Other Careers

    I'm a geologist, which means I've gotten paid to go camping, hiking, and even rafting all over the world. I am semi-retired, meaning I don't teach any more and I don't draw a paycheck. But I'm still a geologist. In fact, I'm camped (well, "camped") right now in southern Utah doing geology. I...

    First RV adventure

    Sounds a little like the first trip in our RV, which was manufactured in 2000. The worst problems were an issue with the transmission, which the dealer said they'd pay to have fixed, and the refrigerator, which the dealer said worked (it takes a long time to cool down, so we really couldn't...

    As the price of gas at the pump skyrockets

    My brother does, in California. As I understand it, Teslas have to be plugged into 220 volt outlets. And apparently they draw a lot of power. My brother has told me that one more Tesla on his court and the city will have to upgrade the power system. Despite being a scientist, I have issues...

    As the price of gas at the pump skyrockets

    No, actually. The steering wheel heats up nicely, but the seat heater takes forever. My husband's Corvette has seat heaters that work quickly, but that's not the case in my Jeep. If I could choose between fast heating of the steering wheel and fast heating of the seat, I'd choose the seat...
