That looks skookum as frig. Nice job!

A few tips on good margaritas (or... really, any cocktail): The biggest improvement you can make is to take whatever mixer(s) you have and dump them down the drain. There's nothing in a mixer that you can't prep yourself cheaper, better tasting, lower calorie, and more healthy. Bonus points for...

That has to be the same engineering firm that built the new Stan Musial Veterans Memorial Bridge in St. Louis over the Mississippi. Edit: After some research, apparently not. Two completely different firms with no apparent connection between the two.

:goofy:

Ooof. I didn't hear that part. That sucks.

When folks see multi-million dollar rigs and double stackers pulling in, they know there's some good stuff floating around in there. Not surprised at all. I think I remember an actual golf cart being stolen in 2019. Yikes.

As you are already well familiar, having attended Oshkosh numerous times, there will undoubtedly be at least one major weather event during Oshkosh. Plan for that, meaning, do all of the planning you would do for an absolute soaker of a storm, including high winds. That would include: footwear...

We are fast approaching the fabled date. Has anyone stepped up to host/sponsor HOPS? As I've mentioned, I would, but a) I don't have a business to promote and b) I camp out in Scholler, so a less than ideal location. But I'm willing to pop some $$$ in to keep things going.

Here's hoping... (especially considering I just rolled over 1/2 century this week...)

That list never ends, and almost always grows, doesn't it?

Hey, fellow St. Louisan! (I'm between Tower Grove park and The Hill). Given that there aren't many on the market right now, you might dip up to OSH to see if any are for sale up there.

On a complete whim, I rented a camper instead of doing my normal tent thing for 2019. Holy heck am I glad I did. My site had at least an inch of standing water from Saturday through Tuesday. And I wasn't even in one of the really low spots. I love tenting, but I'll be renting another camper...

The disdain that the aviation community has for poor people has been duly noted (numerous times on this forum, actually).

Am I being naive (given that I have zero HA flying experience) or does it seem like it would be beneficial to reach your target altitude before shooting up the valley to get out? We are all about risk management and ADM in aviation (or, rather, should be), and it seems like common sense to say...

Monitor curvature and TV curvature are two very different animals. Folks generally don't sit ~18 inches away from their TVs, therefore there is no need for a tight radius. Monitors, however, need a tight radius curvature to account for the user being much closer. Therefore, the curvature you...

We are getting ready to pull the trigger on getting (another) freezer so that we can buy into 1/2 cow from a local farm that grass feeds and treats their livestock humanely. FanTASTIC beef, delicious pork... we'll have to go elsewhere for poultry. I suppose that folks living in areas that don't...

This discussion has been funny. I'm definitely the expensive one in our relationship, between all the stupidly expensive hobbies I have (though, since I haven't flown in forever, that hasn't been too much of a factor... the woodworking, though, has definitely made up for that). Plus, she makes...
