    [NA] House pictures

    Funny you should mention that. My '67 Cherokee was purchased new by a college in the mid-west for use in their flying club. Got a letter a few years ago from a gentleman that took lessons and passed his private in the plane. He was cleaning out some old stuff and found the original key and a...

    uAvionix skyBeacon Installed - Cherokee 140

    Excellent! Do you have the stock wing tips? I've got the Metco-Air tips (reused the original nav lights (Grimes?) and was wondering if there is a fit issue with the Metco wing tips.

    Bad Blood - Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup

    Put this one in the same genre as The Smartest Guys in the Room. Lots of corporate intrigue, greed and ignorance. John Carreyrou does a good job of laying out the spectacular rise and crash of Theranos. Good pace to the story and the principals are well researched. An excellent (IMHO) tale...

    Restarting The Search

    Timely post! While crossing the Commodore Barry bridge earlier this week, the thought occurred that I should shoot you an e-mail to see what's happening - you beat me to it! Glad to hear things are progressing well! Since you have a number of friends in the area, if you need some airtime...

    POA Movie thread

    Entertaining movie. No great moral significance or message, but fun to watch. The Live-Aid “recreation” was spot on. Rami Malek does an excellent job.

    Mattress advice? (NA)

    Try before you buy!! We went with the Savvy Rest after trying out a bunch of different models. https://savvyrest.com $2600 Queen size, included set of sheets and pillows, delivered, set up and old mattress disposal. The wife likes a softer bed than I, and Savvy Rest (and a few others) allow...

    (N/A) Things that have gone by the wayside

    That brings back memories. First calculator I owned was a HP-45. Still going strong after beer parties, knocked all over the place and perhaps a "smoky" environment. Runs only off 120VAC (batteries long expired). Still use it at work and is my favorite calculator!

    The healing continues

    Glad to hear things are progressing well for both you and Mary. Appreciate the update! Maybe some time in the future, when things are back to normal, we all can hear the story.

    I hope they recover quickly and are OK!

    WOW! Do appreciate the update ! Two questions: 1.) Why were you posting at 3:50AM? 2.) Who is this Guerrino guy posing as you? ;)

    We made it to Alaska!

    Will do my best to convince the weather Gods to give you clear skies and calm winds. Denali from the air is just incredible.

    Excellent Adventure! Keep posting the pictures. Does your trip include a swing up to Denali?

    Riding Mower/Lawn Tractor

    Simplicity man myself. Have a later 70's garden tractor (Model 7116H) that was my Dad's. Snow plow, rototiller, vacuum and 48" deck. Engine re-built once, but the hydrostatic transmission is still going strong. On third deck. Don't know how many belts, batteries, bearings, blades and misc...

    Sold 1980 Beech Sundowner

    Well... that's a change! Wish you the best! The Deb is a fine airplane. Funny how these deals often happen unexpectedly.

    China 25% tariffs

    If it were only that simple. Of course for your example to work, you need millions of people to consciously decide to pay more money for the exact same car to potentially save thousands of jobs. Given a choice, the vast majority of people won't do that. What really decimated auto workers...

    Folks in the mid-Atlantic Might Want to Check Their Tiedowns

    Will do. Not much else to do but sit in front of the fire, drink Manhattan’s and surf the net. Lots of power outages.

    Folks in the mid-Atlantic Might Want to Check Their Tiedowns

    Stay safe Gary. Got about 6” heavy wet snow, winds are howling. No power since at least 3PM. Running the generator and the fireplace.

    New Orleans

    That's cool. You running or watching the marathon? #1 - yep good place. #2 & #3 - can't help you out there, do remember no shortage of good food places. If you have the time, the World War II museum is awesome!

    NC airports

    That's cool! We've rented on Robin Lane for the past 30+ years. Nice neighborhood, good beach, lot's of memories. Remember when Runboat Circle was nothing but travel trailers from Rt. 12 to the beach. Rowdy crowd back then!
