Thanks teddy for sending me an email telling me about this thread.

Whoah! Guys! I didn't abandon you! I've just been really busy. I'm taking a small hiatus from rocketry while I get moved into Alabama (I move down there in August). I just don't have time for rocketry right now (heck, I haven't even powered on the altimeters from my L3 flight yet). My L3 rocket is sitting in the garage awaiting repairs to fly again.

I'm actually in Hawaii right now on vacation. I still lurk around on here, I just don't have much time to post.

I appreciate the thought of me though.

Your 4.6 posts / day may be at risk.

Why did the song "Cats in the cradle..." start running through my head?

Oh man do I remember the 7.62 posts per day I had at one point...

Nathan · Jul 10, 2017

Um, is there anyone here who paid any attention to rocketry while they were in college? I know I didn't.

Onebadhawk · Jul 10, 2017

I have a sneaking suspicion that Matt's focus
these days is a bit more on lingerie then rockets...

Funny enough, actually not ����. That redhead who I was with for a while dumped me back in January. Haven't had time or effort to find another.

You may have dodged a bullet! Hang in there young man and enjoy your youth while you still have it. I've got a sneaking suspicion that you'll be running instead of chasing soon enough! :wink:

If he causes enough trouble, you can have him back.

Yeah, I was gonna post 9, but had to check the actual number. Was kind of disappointing to see it under 5.

Haven't forgotten about you Matt, Enjoy Hawaii! Wife has relations there.
Here's a tip for you...
Don't put a beach towel in your lap while sitting on the beach...people may get idea's!

Seems like a lot of folks have dropped off the radar.

I did... but then again... I was 42 when I finally went back to get my degree.

K'Tesh · Jul 11, 2017

Ya know, I saw the title of this thread, and my mind instantly flashed something I saw on a bumper sticker (which I've edited)

I still miss (insert person here), but my aim is improving.

When do you arrive? We have a club meeting the first Thursday evening and a launch on the 5th(?tentative), but that may a bit earlier than you get in.

Oh that's of no matter Matt...
At this point the less serious you are about the relationships you find yourself in the better off you'll be...
You just stay focused on what's important,, your work,, your future,, make careful decisions,, with respect for your future in mind...
And don't you forget,, I'm jealous as heck and I'll switch places with ya in a heartbeat,, lol...

hahahahahahaha
How true is that,,
there is no doubt man....
It's those chasing women that I had in mind when I wrote what I wrote above....
They sure will get you in a world of trouble if you're not careful....lol...

I don't know, but I've heard it's good luck to send him motors and computer parts.

Safe travels till then. Hopefully we'll have our field issues sorted by that time. (Owner of the Manchester sod farm is getting tired of SLI teams blowing/burning patches in his product during "off-nominal" launches....)

I heard that it would be good luck for him to send centering rings to some poor guy in China... :wink:

ksaves2 · Jul 12, 2017

Ummmmm, And so it shall be. One must remember that this will likely be the only time in the young esquires life to devote to concentrated study and it should not be wasted. One should realize that contact to the outside world might change accordingly. Kurt
