As P.T. Barnum once said, " Would you please pass the cranberries?" Wink [;)]

Be gentle now boys, because some poor worker in Thailand probably made the equivalent of $.50 building that model.

Hey, I sure needed a good laugh tonight, Big jake, and you provided an excellent link to it, thanks! Big Smile [:D]

Maybe this fellow had some good reference material, but forgot his glasses?
(either that, or he was trying to use up all his CRACK before the Mrs. got back home!)

"Static Prop...." HAHAHAHAHA ya'll are killing me!!!!!!!!!!!! Laugh [(-D]Laugh [(-D]Laugh [(-D]Laugh [(-D]Laugh [(-D]

I had to see the seller's other "items". Check out the '53 Chevy which evidently is another "piece of memorandum" for us old timers who like nostalgum. It says it was restored. I wonder if they have any "before" pictures? Don't miss the Super Work Boat. It's pretty cool, but they forgot to install the fire hydrants. Aircraft modelers must see the antique "bi-plane" with the mega-prop. I believe the prop is static and the rest of the plane spins around behind it. The Mrs. was right, I do have too much free time.

Apparently, the Captain had a very large dog.... the weathering is a nice touch. (from the dog?)

Those accustomed to reading my posts may find this hard to believe - but words fail me.

Youth, talent, hard work, and enthusiasm are no match for old age and treachery.
