Morning!

Finally, i got my ticket.


Welcome to the party, Odin!


Thanks!!

Can´t wait to come home and start the download....i will enjoy Coral Sea this evening with a beer!




There's no better way to enjoy it, except with a pretty girl, and face it. How often is that likely to happen for any of us?

Every day when I come home to my wife.

Well, looks like I'll have no trouble getting to work this morning, but might have issues with getting home again this afternoon. Damn slow-poke wannabe loser blizzard.

How do you REALLY feel about the weather?


Come on, if there's going to be a blizzard, it should keep me from getting to work in the first place, right? Anything else is just silly.

Well, you've got a point there...

Saw job listing Sunday down here that would fit you, Nik. Ever thought of migrating somewhere else to escape the soul-crushing drudgery of the corporate chattel house?

Blizzard... Pfffft...

can't agree with that. Things happen in life at random. And sometime this mean only bad or sad things. Can't find some good part in what i did experiment last automn !

but that's only my own personnal particular feeling.


You're certainly right, Erik. I'm sorry, that was very insensitive of me. I was just trying to keep my own spirits up after a rather long and fruitless day (not really looking forward to being homeless in a few months, or however long my savings last). But your point is certainly more valid. I'm sorry, wont do that again.

Heh...I thought you were talking about enjoying a beer with a pretty girl.

No-AE is a wife-free zone, as her fiber arts are a husband-free zone. Different strokes for all and all that...

Yuri, it's me who should apologize.
Was in a bad mood at the time of post, tired (and many people react badly when tired).
And everyone should remenber that others people are certainly suffering problems. I mean real problems. Being homeless, being workless, being sick (a big disease), loosing a parent/friend, being robbed, being in divorce : all this are real problems (and i certainly forget some).
So once more i apologize, i won't pretend my problems are worst than yours (i hate those who make such judgement), and i must admit that trying to keep positive is also a very good point !!
Respectfully .
Eric

Jumo 211.


Someone noticed the pic behind the engine It's a Jumo, recovered from a Ju88 shot down above Lincolnshire. Even as late as the 80's farmers were bringing up quantities of aircraft debris from the war. Not all of it was actual aircraft parts either
