Thank you Scott!
That's a very nice compliment!!!

Chris, This thread will never end with sentences like this one:

QUOTE: they know that iwata is the best and that they made a mistake buying their badger products

but it's fine by me, I cant stop laughing!
Not about Badger ofcourse (...Yet, and I promise I'll do that if you'll drag me into it).

Well I'm taking my steps slowly with my Eclipse, and I dont think I can describe it in words! I'm speachless!
Thank you Iwata!

Hey Scott, can you believe this guy? That Alabama humidity has really started to deteriorate his brain. I thought Alabama was a buy American state? I think I am going to have to round up some of the good 'ol boys from Birmingham and come on over and show this boy what we think of them 'thar foreign airbrushes.

Mike

It wouldn't work, Mike. It's a good thought, but it wouldn't work. Try as you might you probably couldn't find a half dozen people in the whole state of Alabama that would even understand what the term "Airbrush" meant. "I used to have me a HAIR brush, back when I had hair, and I used to have me a TOOTH brush, back when I had teeth, but why in tarnation would you want to brush the AIR???"

And even if you did, THAT'S when he'd hide the Iwata and whip out the Omni and say, "See! Made in America!"

Just kidding, Chris. I have a lot of friends in Alabama and it's a great place.

That was great Scott!
This is starting to sound like a Jeff Foxworthy skit now.

Mike

What is sad about Jeff Foxworthy is, he's not lying or exaggerating most of the time. its funny, but true in most cases!! i don't consider myself a bonefied redneck because i can't answer "yes" to hardly any of those "you might be a redneck if" lines. but i know plenty that can friend!!! i could care less about a 4-wheel drive, don't even own a firearm except for a benjamin pellet gun i got when i was a kid, i dont have pieces of cars lying around in my yard (though my brother does), i have no desire to hunt, fish, modify my engine in any way, shape or form, dont like country music, dont go near rivers much at all or go camping, nor do i care to. i dont care that much for racing either. yes, i check up on matt kenseth and tony stewart because i love DeWalt tools and buy most of them at Home Depot. but, i do speak the language fluently. later.

scott, i'm headed your way tomorrow (thursday 1) to columbia TN. i'm already taking preventive medication for when i start seeing those "Vols Country" signs on the side of the roads. and whats with the chevy malibu state trooper cars? what a dorky looking ride for a state trooper car. that cracks me up but i still slow down!!

Hmm... sounds like there are several "labels" that one have to wear for being a redneck.

That is so true even here in Israel.

I was born in Israel, my girlfriend (Not the new Japanese girl...) was born in the Ukraine. In1991 Many Russian (Jews mostly) came to Israel after the breakup of the Soviet unione, Now days there nomber is about 1.6 Millione.
She speaks Russian with her mom and dad, she speaks hebrew with me. We are two completly different people yet we communicate like we know each other for years.
My parents were born in Moroco and Tunisia(!). "Usually" people like me should were a dark skin. Not dark brown but more of a dark tan. I am the complete opposite. I am very white with green eyes, so no one can tell my true origin since I'm not in the "Standardly-expected-look".
To Israeli eyes, I'm beeing mistakin as when one sees me he will automaticly "Label" me as a Russian born.
Even Russian born are beeing missled and speak to me in Russian.

For some sad and stupid reason, it's allways "important" to know where youre parents were born and where do you live.
How stupid is that?!?!?!
Israel is a complete mix up of people from all over the world. Since the 1950's people from Europe (Polish, Rumanian, Turkish, French, and so on...) and people from Yemen Iraq Iran Moroco Algere Libya Egypt Tunisia and on and on... came to israel.
The nomber of combinations here is endless! Yet from one unexplainable reason we divide and label.

Ofcourse that everything here is in a good spirit cause after all you are all americans, and the 4th of july is just around the corner
so you'd better be friends...

But I just wanted to show you guys that there is no way of escaping from it!
Sometimes its anoying but most of the time its funny!
So keep up the good spirit!

It's waaayyyy offtopic now, but I sure like to see your kindried spirits here.
All the wars around me make me to forget about such things like that sometimes...

Chris, I know that the nighbour's grass is always greener, but I would take that kind of life any time. It's just getting harder and harder everyday here.

By the way you wrote:

would please explain why? I did'nt get it....

More than people would think! I ran a survey crew for 12 years and did surveys in some out of the way places. A lot of what Foxworthy says truly does represent some parts of this area

QUOTE: i dont care that much for racing either.

Jeeeeeez .... don't say that so loud around here!!! Can you at least spell NASCAR?

Word of advice ... leave the Crimson Tide stuff at the state line. Last I heard it's open season on them.

What's the deal with the Malibu? Simple, in two words: "Lowest Bidder" .

Be careful on the roads. It gets crazy around holidays, but I'm sure you know that.
