      Which is your favorite morale patch?

      I can't post mine for fear of bannination, but it's something along the lines of Psalms 23:4, as interpreted by a US Marine. Language not appropriate for work or church.

      Indiana Cities & Towns Thread

      Franklin, IN (not my hometown, but where we happened to land) is the home from Franklin College, the first college in the state to admit women. We are also the home to the first Ritters Frozen Custard. You might also check out the Artcraft Theater for some reruns of classic movies. Historic...

      Winter Hobbies

      I had done an EA-6B in high school, but lost it over the years. The ship model isn't Italieri, but a smaller company, and it's cast resin. Beautiful piece, and great reviews. I just don't have $130 laying around that the CFO/wife will let me spend. EDIT: found a review of the kit, Kilauea class...

      Winter Hobbies

      The decals it comes with are from CVW-11, but I don't recognize the specific unit. I'm running with that. When I do the boats, I'd like to do up an EA-6B from a unit attached to the Roosevelt, since that is the carrier group my dad was a part of in Desert Storm. But that's a ways in the future...

      Winter Hobbies

      This is the F-14, it's the first model I've worked on in 8-10 years, so the quality stinks. The F-18 is next, and I'm either doing a B-29 after that, or a B-1B, if I can find a good one. Eventually I've got about 5-7 baots in mind to build. I'm going build models of all of the boats my dad was...

      Winter Hobbies

      So far I am back into doing scale models, a hobby I haven't touched in 10 years. Have a 1:144 F-14 that I am working on (and it is teeeny) and a 1:48 F/A-18E next. I've got my eye's on a B-29 that I'd love to have hanging in my office, but that's off in the future. Also looking into getting a...

      Received an open box item from an online order

      Yeah, I'd take that back in a heartbeat. Done in shipping or an open box, I wouldn't trust it.

      Off the wall question - I65

      Could be fire hydrants? I know of several streets in Indy that have the blue "cat's eye" markers on streets to denote them.

      The Walking Dad

      My wife just recently got hooked on the show, but doesn't like to watch it with me because I crack too many jokes. Nice to know I'm not the only one.

      South Africa's Nelson Mandela Dies

      Reword that sentence thusly.. A lot of the American revolutionary fans are either not aware or their violent terrorist actions or are simply choosing to ignoring them.

      South Africa's Nelson Mandela Dies

      Between 3-6,000 Indians died on the Trail of Tears, the forced removal of the Indians from the south. This was signed off on by an American president, Andrew Jackson. Many consider him to be one of the greatest of American presidents. There is plenty of revisionist history to go around.

      Snow storm and ice storm this weekend

      Looks to be 3-4" outside the office window right now. Not going to go out in the cold to measure it, but that's what it appears to be. Snowing a little now, but looks like more is on the way.

      South Africa's Nelson Mandela Dies

      I was on Usenet pretty actively from about 1998-2001. Even during that period, a lot of Usenet was the wild west. Do as you please kind of deal. Maybe if it was a moderated group, but that was few and far between.

      South Africa's Nelson Mandela Dies

      If that is a rule on INGO, then I agree to be held to it. However, this saying of universal rules on the internet? C'mon.....

      South Africa's Nelson Mandela Dies

      On INGO maybe, but rules on the internet? Please, tell me another! I needed that laugh.

      South Africa's Nelson Mandela Dies

      Point taken, but if someone shows their ignorance so thoroughly, they bring that on themselves.

      South Africa's Nelson Mandela Dies

      You know who else the establishment of the time thought was a terrorist, and was eventually put to death for it? Jesus. So as other have so eloquently said, shut your yap.

      Snow storm and ice storm this weekend

      Doesn't look like much in the way of snow yet. I know there is more coming later today. Now I'm just waiting for the schools to drop the hammer so I can let my wife sleep in. EDIT: Well, didn't take long, two hour delay.

      Snow storm and ice storm this weekend

      It's nearing bedtime here (the 6 year old has school, I have to be on the computer for work at 4:30am), and the kid asked me about homework. "Shouldn't we go do it daddy?" I thought naw, she'll be sleeping in in the morning. The thought better of it. Still getting what sounds like an awful lot...

      Snow storm and ice storm this weekend

      Getting some pretty decently heavy sleet in Franklin. Hit the Kroger about an hour ago, bread shot, milk headed that way, meat shop looked wiped. All lanes open and they had lines a few deep at each. Going to be a long night for those folks, glad I don't have to do that anymore.
