BTW , trust my Martian friend to be the one person to know about Green/Orange whiskey!


i don't even know if Knockando and Glennfiddish are Green or Orange , but i like those



They are Scottish, and in theory that would make them closer to Orange. And I like them two!


MUCH closer. Indeed the Orange faction in northern Ireland is primarily Scottish people moved over there by the English during the Plantation. Google it.

Those Scots are the ones I'm descended from.

Would that have been Black Shadow Aviation in Jacksonville? If it was, then I saw that plane when it 1st came into the restoration hanger.

No it was done right there in Titusville by a bunch of retirees living in Brevard County.

They are currently working on an Avenger. I will post that picture tomorrow.

Sick day tithe.

My butt landed in the ER last night with a "complex migraine" and hypertension.

The Dr informed me that at my advanced age I should probably have a regular doctor to look after my decrepit carcass.


Take care brother Onime!

Yuri, if you have too often migraine, try "ear-therapy". That look like acupuncture, but it is on the ear.
It had really good result on Wife unit.

That was the first one ever. Hopefully the last. It is not an experience I would care to repeat multiple times.

Status: offline 		Has anyone else her got involved with the World of Tanks game? It's in beta but it's pretty easy to get in if you're interested. It plays a bit like Navyfield but with a bit of sim thrown into the mix, you can hide in stuff to avoid detection and use wrecks as cover. I'm driving a Marder II as my main ride (and it's pants), whilst I can knock out light tanks easily enough the T-34s and Panzer III are a different matter, and I'm lucky if I can even knock a track off a Tiger
