Yup...staying up too late working on Burning Man projects and reading these threads!

Yep. And it is worse when I fold laundry and match a pair of socks. My mind latches on to the lyrics "Reunited and it feels so good" It goes on like that for a while.

Wish I could, would love to. Kinda hard to do in Nevada. Shitty alkali soil, blistering hot sun, frost, even snow can occur in June


TPBM will reveal whether they prefer craft beer or brewery beer. I like both

No, but I've wanted to. Now that the airbus A300-A350, and Boeing 737, 757,767, 777,& 787 planes are ETOPS certified, the routes that I fly no longer require 4 engine aircraft.

I don't really like to fly anymore. When in the Air Force, there were times I had 10 hour flights to get to some place. Kinda ruined it for me.

TPBM knows what a RC-135X is.

Haven't a clue, but I was singing Springtime for Hitler earlier today (isn't it every Jews go-to spring song?)

After this last post, I'm out.

Eric, I was going to post the original Springtime clip in the lovely thread drift going on in the Ticket forum. Mel Brooks is credit to our people. (My spring song is "I have confidence" from Sound of Music.)

Scott gave me the purple puppy on the 2nd anniversary of when we met. (He was in a coma on the first anniversary.) I clung to her after his death, and again after my dismemberment. I don't need her as much, but that doesn't mean I'm letting her go.

I stopped subscribing to television programming over three years ago and I admit I miss watching public television. To compensate I go to the library and check out DVD's of the PBS specials that I want to see. Not sure if that counts or not.

TPBM uses channel lock pliers in lieu of the proper tool most all the time.

Well no, I sure like the right tool whenever I can lay hands on it.
But that reminds me of one of my favorite sayings;

And its a Diet Coke.
