I knew a lawyer who took a Viagra overdose.... it just made him taller. :duck:

Unfortunately, instead of coming to the launch, I have the "privilege" of taking my kids to their school's fundraising picnic, where I have the pleasure of paying an expensive admission to get into...

Anybody ever upscale one?

The Dude abides.

I WON!!!!


$4.

:facepalm:

Or Bigfoot?

They're estimating 600 mil for tonight's powerball jackpot. If I win, I promise to stimulate the rocketry economy.

And good news for our hobby vendors: I'm buying three tickets, which TRIPLES my...

In the Bikini Island tests (1946) they used 1000 fps, which was a lot at that time. According to wikipedia they shot 50K stills and 1,500,000 feet of motion picture. I can't find the reference, but...

Thanks for the update! My rockets no longer expand to 14,446 inches when I change screens. Calculations have been good all along, though.

If you have an iPhone or iPad with a camera, you can use the angle measurement tool in Smart Launch. Plus, you have a full sim calculator!

Stand, look for it, and POINT TO IT if you see it. This helps others spot it, and helps the group triangulate a little bit to see where it's going. Not a guarantee of safety with things travelling...

Oh, that mighty wind. "It's blowin' peace and freedom, it's blowin' you and me!"

So far, I would say my LOC 4" V2. I like it aesthetically, and it flies well on G and H (so far...), and I am working now to mod it for DD using a d-bag and a zzmarter dezzender, which would make it...

It is interesting, for the first half hour or so. After that....oy.

I would be glad to meet you some day: I'd point my father in law toward you, say "This is Fastcargo, he's VERY interested in...

My high school chemistry teacher took us out to the parking lot and did a big thermite reaction over an oil drum. It was pretty cool, especially when it melted through the bottom of the drum into the...

Too late. I will say that I agree we should all participate in politics, but we've all agreed that TRF is not the place. Yes, regulation of BP is important to us, but please try harder to keep the...

This is true. Junk mail accounts for something close to half the total mail volume, and somewhat less than half of the total postage income. Without it they couldn't afford to deliver 6 days with the...

I agree that getting people to Mars seems like a near-impossibility today, but if the resources can be found, and a feasible plan put together, I think that getting people willing to go would not be...

This kind of smart-alecry is just typical of the...web.

Makes me want to go to the islands, get a tan, and become a ... brown recluse.

Pluto was always a poser in my opinion: he basically just wrote down things Socrates said and took credit for them.

The quality of these puns has me climbing the walls.

Would you characterize what Spider-man's doing as... "swing dancing?":cool2:

Just like Spider-Man dances to any song you play:

Web site down?

I get a 403 error. I am on an iPhone, perhaps it is a mobile site detection issue?

That makes sense. From the pix I can't see how much of the NC base is left. My brain couldn't accept the thought of tightening the U-bolt nuts through that small-looking access hole. But also that is...

Hi Gary.... I too have been a victim of that little tab, and have been considering various alternate attachment points. I like the look of the setup in your photos. I have also had trouble getting my...

On most of my DD flights I fly 2 altimeters, each with their own battery and separate charges, and leave the motor ejection charge IN, with a long delay, so that if I have 2 altimeters fail, there is...

If you're really doing a lot of video editing, the Fusion drive may be worth it. 8GB is a decent amount of RAM, even for video editing. If you were doing lots of gaming, I would suggest maxing out...

I wasn't referring to your post, I was responding to someone else above who did talk about texting. Yes, highway hypnosis is real and dangerous. I have driven cross-country a few times, and also for...

Oh, thank god. I thought you were going to name your rocket "Pressure Cooker".

This isn't just in the military or health care. Most companies promote skilled people into management, and most people take the "promotion" because it's the only way to increase salary, prestige,...
