    (Reasonably) Clean jokes.

    Oddball and Curveball were in a local pub enjoying some beers. Both needed a bathroom break at the same time. Heading out back they soon found a two hole outhouse. Curveball bent over to raise his seat, and a nickel fell out of his pocket down into the hole. Curveball looks down in the hole...

    (Reasonably) Clean jokes.

    A grandfather was walking his grandson to school one fine spring day. The birds were singing. A nearby lawn sprinkler was sparkling/shimmering in the early morning sun.

    Self taught "rocket scientist" plans to launch himself........

    Hi George, Yes, the first ramp was nothing more than a big pile of dirt. The prototype did go into the Snake River, a reward was offered if anybody found it. Not sure if it was ever recovered. Also it was rumored the prototype used Oly Beer for the steam. Not sure if they did or didn't, but...

    dear Santa

    Fact sheet is a year old, as is the chance to pre-order, deadline was Nov. 2015. 260 Knots using a 350hp turbo charged engine, range 1050 nm. Wonder why it doesn't list more specifications? Think I'll stick with trying to get a Vans RV-6 that does 202 mph, stalls at 49, takes off in solo...

    My Z3 Was Totaled In A Car Wreck.

    Sure hope you get the money you're hoping to out of the wrecked Z3. Did you have classic car insurance on it? Only ask because I've had trouble with insurance companies paying "replacement" value on cars in the past. Now I have Hagerty's classic car insurance on my 1990 Porsche 944 S2...

    WHAT THE HECK!!! Windows 10???

    Yes, they just tried to sneak it in again for the third time! "Thank You so much" for this great way to battle the upgrade. It hogs all of the download and computer memory each time it tries to download, I know to check when my computer gets sluggish.... Mike

    Pesticides...

    They are not call MSDS anymore. Global Harmonazation has led to a new name SDS. Safety data Sheets. Most companies have upgraded to the new names, so old MSDS might have changed. Best to use the most recent= SDS. Mike

    Hawaii?

    Was stationed there back in '79 thru '81. Lots to do on Oahu. Snorkling is best at hanauma bay, fish persevere, can see lots of morey eels and beautiful fish. Like swimming in an aquarium. Glider flights at Dillingham. Learned how to hang glide on the east shore. Body surfing was a blast...

    Apollo 13 - The Movie and the Astronauts

    A better liftoff scene can be found on a DVD titled For All Mankind, a dvd put together from NASA archived footage of all of the Apollo missions, a few minutes of ED White doing his spacewalk are also included. This is the real stuff, not special effects. Hard to find at a good price anymore...

    Made everywhere but in the U.S.A.

    We consumers decided years ago to buy cheap! Cheap means buying on a subscription plan. Buy cheap and then 1 to 2-years later buy it again, when it breaks = Subscription plan! At least we get new products again and again, instead of like the old Made in the USA stuff that would keep...
