I have four people jamming "whipping post" here in the basement and giving me dirty looks every time I make a reply. Now they've stopped and are laffing at these posts. EFF them! (As they 'fly' my WIPS around the room......no booze tonight!) Yet!

My ears hurt, but we can still read

You can tell I married her cuz I respect her for her mind........ Blondes! 

Nothing here says anything about needing to know how to read.

I was distracted by the geriatric dancing on DWTS.. God that was nasty....

Keep your presents on the porch and watch for leaking...

Oh bite me.. I don't read his dang posts....  What do you take me for?

There is NOTHING MODEST About me.. thats the problem with that statement.

Frank, looking good I was unable to log on most of the weekend

I was in the same boat Roy! Just able to log in minutes ago. Sorry I missed the fun.....but I'm caught up now.

 Frank , the Corsair twins are looking swell!  Can't wait to see what you do with the actuators!

Bondo the ladies are looking good in their costumes! That is definately your holiday as you can get away without a costume! Who am I kidding so can I?

 Been under the weather all weekend. Worked my tail off and came down with the full fledged flu.  Fever, chills and all the old war wounds felt as if they had returned with a vengence. I can't remember the last time I got sick but this one is a doozey! Wife gave me some anti hystimine and I slept last night pretty well for me so It helped. The temps here were high 40's at night and 80's during the day so combine that with the long hours guess I Was due.

Well gonna get out today for a bit. I'd like to lay in bed and moan but have things to do!

Frank, looking good

I was unable to log on most of the weekend

I was kind of quiet Saturday because my head hurt...

I need a new subject since I got mine done... early.

my people...

I can only speak for me, his weekend. But I be ashore making merry with the chicas! Now I'm playing catch-up.....

I've always loved watching the corsair come together. But I get to see 2 for the price of one!

Yep, it's a good weekend! They're looking good so far, Frank! Sounds like the flaps are quite a task. Is there alot to them? Or do ya got something different in mind?

Awfully quiet here today...

Spent some time today on the Corsairs, here's where they're at.  I managed to finish assembling the leading edge intakes, and rescribed the lost details on them.  Glued the wings on today, hoping to finish blending them in tomorrow. 

Right!  Off to work on the flap parts.  Lots of them I say! 

Spent a few hours this morning working on the Corsairs.  Glued the wind intakes on yesterday, and got them sanded down this morning.  Also managed to rescribe one of them.  Tomorrow I'll finish the other one then it's time to begin gluing the wings to the fuselage, and then I can photograph these birds on the foam and stick stand all of the time!

DIdn't get any modeling done tonight, Haligan and I were at a wedding for one of her friends in Green Bay.  Heading off to a family get together tomorrow.  Maybe some Corsair time tomorrow night!

Nay! Dan.....we be drinkin' I figger!
