As for that football game, USS Mike: 13 yards passing? All game? Reinforcing the notion that navy guys just don't belong in the air!

Ok, I'm off to Major Mike's AAR for a little Army/Navy game taunting.  




Sorry but I haven't been around the past couple of days. Busy day Friday and drill all day today. How'd the game turn out?

Good morning, y'all.


That reminds me of a debate between two Southern colleagues of mine as to whether the plural of y'all is "all y'all" or "you'uns".


They were both wrong. Y'all is already plural (the contraction of "you all") and thus no educated southerner would use it when speaking to a solo person.

Best wishes Mike!

BTW, here the answer after job interview can happen even 7-10 (or longer) after meeting - is it usual in USA that you simply must have call back the day after?


Leo "Apollo11"



One time for me the the call came six weeks after the interview. It turned out during the original interview the interviewer decided that I was perfect for a different (better) job that was opening up a few weeks later. Of course, he could have given me some indication. After not hearing back from him within a week I figured that somehow I had blown that interview...

We're expecting a high today of 39F! A rare sunny thaw for us in mid-December. We'll be bundling up the kids and finding a Christmas tree today. One advantage of being in the upper midwest: there's a bunch of 'select your own' Christmas tree farms around here.

Ah, you wretched Navy puke, you forgot one thing. Get on the knee and thank God he let you luck out this time against the Black Knights.

I have not forgotten I owe you a dinner from last year. I will have to go to Washington/Philadelphia sometime this coming year to research some plans for the early Federal frigates, so as soon as I am in the neighborhood, I full intend to pay (you wretched Navy puke).

Ciao. John

Hello and Goodbye,

Will no longer be regularly checking these forums. have another project that will be taking my time and attention. A couple friends and I will be analyzing and building comparative models of identically sized US/British/French frigates from the Revolutionary/Empire periods (1794-1812) with a view to illustrating framing technique (and scantling dimensionality) between and among the three paticipatory nationalities.

There has been so much bullshit written about this, by everybody, that an objective appreciation of factual data would be an aid to contemporary historians. We have received approvals and advances from US and French publishers. The results of our efforts would have been published as a practicum in any case, but with some editing, the publishers believe we got something worthwhile.

So, back I go to bow and buttock lines and frame dispositions. Back to hull form specs and the things that really float my boat. We are working very closely with Fr. Romero, D. Antscherl, and the modeling community at Model Ship World. if you are at all interested in these ships ,in this period, look for our posts there.

Enjoyed modulating with all of you, but it's time to move on. I'll drop in from time to time and give ya'll some site specs so you can see what we are doing.

Ciao. John


Come and visit us from time to time John!

Well, JWE + Mynok + AW1Steve up and gone, and now me too. Sick and tired of the Matrix forums and have been for some time; nothing to do with any of you guys. You can hit me up on FB if you like, but I'm bowing out from here.

All the best to you.


Take care and come back soon Kristian!

BTW, I don't have FB (I simply can't stand it)...

Based upon similar experinces and annoyances to Mynoks, I've come to the conclusion that lately this forum's been less of a joy lately. As we are entering the holiday season, and wishing to maintain a good mood throughout, like Mynok, I'm going on sabatical till after the new year. So let me whish you all a joyous season, and may you have wonderful holiday's, which ever ones you celebrate. See you in the new year!


Take care and be back soon Steve!
