Have we lost one

[Johnnie]

You ever bumble thru a day with that feeling that something is missing?

Well I have been bumbling thru the forum here for a while, and I have finally taken notice that one the posters is not posting on here, and has not for a while...I mean this guy could squeeze out 75+ posts a day at times...

Where is Neil?

...or am I just blind?

 

[rabidsheeep]

... you are right? he hasn't been in chat (well, ive been slacking off)

probably that computer hes always talking about being junky crapped out

 

[n3tjm]

Maybe he's grounded? I seen an e-mail on the cmass list from him recently... so maybe he got cruel and unusual punishment... NO TRFING

I hope I am wrong... but they 22nd was almost a week away . I was hoping to see his comments on my threads... . He's a great kid...

 

[Mike]

His computer could be down although Doug says he's e-mailed the CMASS list. But he may have been able to send an e-mail through a school computer but couldn't access TRF on it.

He's home schooled... unless he went to the library... but they usually have controls too....

 

[GL-P]

That is so weird! Just the other day i honestly felt that someone was missing. I couldn't put my finger on it till now!!!

Too freaky

Where's the kid?

 

[phaar]

I do not think you guys need to be worried. I talked to him a couple days ago in the chat room. I think he has been pretty busy with other things. Although, it was late at night come to think of it...maybe he is grounded from TRF....

Come to think of it, I haven't seen AirForce on here in a really long time. Like months.

 

[GL-P]

didn't airforce have some military camp or something he had to go to?

 

[karatekicker271]

Ya, wasn't he going to a military camp in Japan or something

 

[BlueNinja]

that was rocketman248.

I think Airforce has a son in the US Airforce.

 

[Chilly]

Yeah, he's "grown up" now but his son's in The Force. He doesn't live very far from me and we've tried to get together for launches but it never worked out with the schedule I used to have. I'll try PM'ing him.

Here is Neil eating Fliscake at the last CMASS launch!

Neil has that look of "if I eat one more bite I'm gonna PUKE! "

Right in one!!!! That cake was VERY filling. That was the exact thing I was thinking after I finished that cake.

Man, it certainly feels nice to know that my dog isnt the ONLY one who notices when I am away

I have just been busy. Fixing rockets, and all that. Come to think of it... Im shocked! I havnt posted here for about a week!

If I ever do this again, shoot me dead

Or send the police in to see if Im in a coma or something from too much APCP smoke


And no, i wasnt technically grounded, but my mom said if I was on the computer for too long (an hour a day max), I would "regret it". I dont think I want to know what that means


Anyways, im back now. ANd I have a weeks worth of threads to catch up on

 

[Neil]

Oh, and my computer is so friggin screwed up, it cant even open a second window properly. I have to access the internet "through the back door", in a way. Right click on the start button, click "explore", find the internet, click on it, and then repeat if I want to browse two sites at once, or look at pictures. If I want to look at pictures, I have to click on the link, select "copy shortcut", paste it into the second windows adress bar, and hit enter.

And thats when its in a good mood!

Some of the time it wont do anything at all.

I think we might need a new computer

So ill add that to the list of excuses... My computer wont work properly, so I pretty much got fed up with it and did other stuff.

 

[Missileman]

NEAL
You had us scared!!
I think you should post 100 times "I will never abandon my TRF friends again"

 

[Neil]

Heres a REALLY cool pic of what I was doing, though


I been around here long enough to know that pics can solve anything


A picture of a cup sitting on a post... Whats so interesting about that, you say?

 

[Neil]

What happens 1/30th of a second later.


A bit of explanation: I had a few extra plastic cups. I have a BB gun. I have water. Put water in cup. Put BB in BB gun. Cock gun. Aim camera (on video of course. This is a freeze-frame video thing), shoot.

Observe:



(oh, I have several real videos if you want em... They are really cool. Way too big to post, though

 

[Neil]

And 1/30th of a second after that.


Whee. What fun. I also tried it with paper cups, but taht didnt work as well. Untill I tried my lower-powered BB gun. That was cool. It actually got a big silver streak which I know is the BB... Then a big cloud of water flying everywhere

But I only have an hour to do all this, and I dont want to spend all that time fixing that movie so I can post it on here... Its cool, though. Ill see what I can do around 10:00 after everyone else is in bed

 

[Dbarrm]

Great, just great, now he armed.

Dan

 

[GL-P]

Does anyone have debts to pay? Now's the time to remember to pay them back to him!!!

 

[AlexM]

What were you saying about those magnelites, Doug?

 

[Neil]

Yep. I got the full arsenal now:

2 BB guns, one low powered, one high powered, and a friend with a slightly less high powered one, plus three bows (traditional stick and string bows for me, thanx ), 25#, 35# and 45# draw weights, several blowguns, with various ammunition (all of it very sharp)...

Yep. Im armed and dangerous Though unless your a plastic cup of water, you got nuttin to worry about


I got my own supply of Magnalites now, btw doug
