Here's my wife Sharon and I goofing around in front of our house:

I like that picture, creative way to position things.

Couple questions:
1. Why are there pine trees in the desert?
2. Do you ever change that orange shirt or do you have one for each day of the week?
3. Why is Sharon's Firebird still wearing stock shoes?

1. Both Aleppo and Goldwater pines have flourished in the Valley of the Sun for over a hundred years, approximately the same time the Salt River Project has existed. Quite the coincidence, huh?
2. That is the only shirt I own, all my money is spent on Jeeps and rockets.
3. She wants to keep her TRANS AM stock. All I have convinced her to change is the air filter. I hope she never hears you call "YLOJAK" a firebird. :y:

Hey I straightened the frame on an 85 Grand Marquis like that one time... but you gotta have two more fatboys and be a little thicker to do it... also helps to jump on the rear bumper... :D
Later! OL JR :)

PS. Did you get it unstuck??

Yep, we were playing a game of 4x4 Rodeo barrel racing and accidentally found a ditch.

That's me doing my "Dueling Banjos" bit on a cruise ship.
That routine tied me for a first place on the Gong Show in 1979.

In the second shot, I'm holding onto my rocket.
No - I'm just excited to be at a group launch.
No - really.

It's all camera angles and timing.

1. That was a very nice flight.
2. Yeah, he's rescued several rockets from that creek.
3. That's one big damn stick.
4. A clean and organized shop is just sick.

Now that's funny, and I don't care who ya are

1. Both Aleppo and Goldwater pines have flourished in the Valley of the Sun for over a hundred years, approximately the same time the Salt River Project has existed. Quite the coincidence, huh?

My old neighbor had two of those in the front yard one in the back. Needles would constantly clog the pool filter and if not raked weekly my front yard wou8ld be 2-3" deep in the stuff. I hate pine trees :mad:

Geeze is anybody under 6' and 200lbs besides me?:rolleyes:

6' 160lbs drippin' wet. :D

#1. That particular flight had a bonus delay as I recall but it all came out okay in the end.

#4. As Chris said above, it's all in the camera angle.
 
A couple of Fat Boys.....

Ok, I could make a REALLY BAD "Deliverance" joke here, but I won't... :D:dark:

Later! OL JR :)
