Seems like everyone is in "General Modeling Discussions" the last little bit.  It's been quiet here since the Count to 2000 has finished.

Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...

".....you fellas can't bring your dogs in here!"

"But they're our seeing-eye dogs!" one says, winking to his friend.

"Oh, I see, that is a fine black lab you have there....you're OK, but your buddy....I mean really, a Yorkie?"

"They gave me a WHAT!!!??"

Nope, pretty quiet there too, with only one message in last 24 hours.  Maybe everyone is out dancing around the Maypole, hoping that spring is really arriving.

I think this year the Chicago area spring may transition directly into winter..............taking a long time for normal seasonal temps to appear............Hmm

The count to 2000 isn't dead yet Smile. It has been renamed count to infinity...But, Sad, it has been sinking deeper and deeper into the infinity...

So if you don't know what to say/do/post...find the count to infinity tread and add a number Toast

Well went over to "count to infinity" and didn't feel right just typing in the next number without some cool picture to attach so (yawn)I'm back. Maybe I should take my advice from the grumpy old mens thread and go work on something.   Who wants to "bet" I just killed this thread too?............. anyone can prove me wrong........please........

we're modelers it's what we do

Yard work and my son's little league just started up. Let's not forget the missus' dreaded "honey to-do list."

I don't get why we men call it the "honey-to-do" list.  Realistically it is more like "Honey-DO-IT-NOW....or else" list. Big Smile

I echo the sentiments...now that the nice weather is here...it's hard to get to the bench.  And like everyone else, we've had a longer winter...

On the bench:  Tamyia Mosquito Mk. VI for the '44 group build.  Yes, still.

Yup - that's about right Brian. Thing that irritates me the most, it's the same thing every year. I keep telling her I know the yard needs raking, the windows & screens need cleaning, the garage cleaned out, the bushes trimmed. Those are givens. LOL!!

Because the humor was banned or censored to the point of going elsewhere.
