Just got paid today..........

Must be nice,

mine went to Rent, car payment, insurance, Phone, electric, water, etc....

But I'm sure you feel good, going out and getting a bunch of cool stuff.

Congrats! Have FUN!

I am happy for you Max. Just be sure to have enough left to last you till the next paycheck.

Enjoy the models.

If I'm reading your post correctly, I'll wager that you're single and have no kids. . .

Hey, Max. If you have it left over, buy me a Tamiya Bubbletop T-bolt!! :)

His profile says "Happily Divorced." I can see why he's happy !

Paul, no betting cause it got Pete Rose in trouble..........
I have a serpent for an ex wife, 3 boys, 1 stepson and a supportive woman!
Yes, I do pay bills on occasion.............

I heard a commedian say once.
Why are divorces so expensive??
because their worth it.

Sounds like a pretty good haul, Max. Looks like all of the necessities are covered. Just save some kits for the rest of us. Good luck with the kits, and keep the snakes an inch or two out of kicking distance.

Can't fritter away my paycheck (worse luck) - my bloody kids insist I keep buying food and things like that.
"I'm hungry, dad" they whine.
"Cripes, I fed you yesterday!! What more do want from me? Shut up and keep scrubbing the driveway!"
Regrettably, they don't share my passion for (in their words) transferring tiny spots of paint onto tiny bits of plastic. They just have no idea.
Are they strange, or is it us?
Something to think on...................
Cheers,
LeeTree

Lee it's your kids not you. You know how this younger generation is now days!!

Just tell them to chop the firewood when they're done with the driveway, then have them get to painting the house and tell them they'll get fed again when they've done a little work for it!!

HEY,
Its not the younger generation, because i am part of that younger generation. If they dont like to build models, make them do it for a punishment, they will LEARN to love it.

Randy

Leetree, your kids have the same problem mine have; they just don't understand sacrifice. You just can't expect to eat every day, 3 times a day. Do you know what that does to a septic system? They don't just pump themselves, you know.................teach them DISCIPLINE and SACRIFICE and they will thank you someday.

Now go out and buy that 1/32 F/A-18........................

I used to work near NAS Mira Mar in California back when the Top Gun scool was still their.
We used to see A4's like the one in your photo all the time.
We could always tell when they were at the end of the cycle.
All the student aircraft(F-14's) would fly out in pairs..
About a half hour later we would see all the instructer aircraft scamble out in one large pack of A-4's and F-5's.
It would blow your mind to see nine or so fighters at full throttle around 500 feet go ripping over the town.

Sorry for the rant.
Your photo jarred some good memories!

James, don't worry about the ranting, we're all fans here!
