Just went to edit profile and noticed the profile views....ladies, please, Im a married man, but Ill still mingle with ya at the Jolly Roger

Edit: wife says I cant go to the Jolly Roger anymore...and dang, thought I had hidden that rolling pin pretty good...dented head no 2 here

A true and wonderful miracle has occurred and it is here in these hallowed pages of MOM that it has taken place! All hail the pages of MOM!! What miracle is this you ask. Why, it's no less than Zandor has posted twice! Yes twice in one day and on two consecutive pages!!! All hail ZandorHawke!!!

I'm trying to put a video together that will show the 1st year. ...got the pics and the music in my mind...Just trying to find the correct app (suggestions?) and time.





(going to try to make the Mean Old Men cry)

I was curious. Not bi curious. I saw you all thinking it so I said it. what happened to the map you were working on for page one Paul???? With all the MOM locations on it.

Who doesn't want to punch Dr. Phil in the face? Raise your hands.

Can't wait to see the vid Paul.

Like to see the thread back to normal. Thanks guys. It fell off a month or so ago. Feels like home again.

Just thought I would share this story with you all

Best dolphin story I've seen in days, Muckers.

I agree, Max, the thread feels like the thread again. Oh, and it's a temp sitcheeayshun in FL. Can't get the NYC outta my blood that easily.

Great "Year Ago Today" post, Zandor. We're a bit like the Lafayette Escadrille; there's the early original period with the baker's dozen of us, then the "stickied" officially sanctioned squad featuring the expanded roster of 24.

I do wish SB467 would drop by, for one of the most articulate, readable M.O.Ms he's also one of the most taciturn.

Paul, I'm already crying over your "Misty M.O.M Colored Memories" vid. Maybe a separate vid on "Wig's Emotional Instability", huh? I'm thinking Psycho Killer or The Ballad of Dwight Frye as soundtrack.

Vesa, looks like we need a phonetic pronunciation guide for your name! Ahn-say-cohn. Own-see-conay. Ahn-suh-cone. Mine, by the way, is pronounced like "Widge".

It appears that a few of us have been duly impressed by Flocka_LockaWacka. He's been gang-pitched by M.O.Ms, says he wants to apply. Another demon Ace in the making unless I miss my guess. He was worried that not being forum-active might be a deal breaker. I told him many of us aren't. Anyone who's flown with him, though, knows what a pleasant in-game presence he is. Forum inactivity notwithstanding, that there is a banner I can't wait to write!

Lapa's been in touch via direct email. While we're sorting out his forum access he's stoked about being in M.O.M and wants the mob to know he's looking forward to tagging up and throwing down on the thread. (he's concerned about his English but it can't be as bad as mine) If I haven't mentioned it, Andrey is a real-life commercial pilot living and working in Moscow. If he flies up there like he flies in here those competing commercial pilots are well and thoroughly screwed.

Flipper-ing amazing!! (Ugh, sorry, it was the first thing that came to mind...)

By the way, thanks Claygod for switching sides in that BTC game today...it was looking ugly til the fickle finger of server flipped the whole game on its ear...

Hey Wig, Tell Lapa Dent say's No worries. I'd love to have him on the thread....

Hey Muck, Sorry about that one sheep with the MoHawk down it's back.... I needed new socks.... The kitchen sink was clogged, couldn't clean em so I made em.....

Edit: There's a picture there somewhere Paul....

She told me it was a fashion statement!

Hi all!
Still around, my game play has slowed (work-n-honey dew's) it is great to log in and see 48 new post (not one bitchy or negative)! Well you all have a great day!

Paul: you said you were thinkning about pontoons for the bike? I've been working on a surfboard made from construction scraps. Pink foam (closed cell I think) and a welding blanket for my fiberglass.

Someone said cake!!!! Gotta go get a snack!

Wig, what part of Florida are you living in? I go to New York to see you and then to Florida. Not stalking or anything. Just vacation. Or is it.

My inlaws snowbird down to Ft.Myers annually so wife drags me down there every Christmas. .kinda nice actually..got me thinking, maybe we should have an annual mom reunion bbq somewhere central to all, like northern VA ..can imagine it now..PH going at it with the Carolina sauce, big tex with the texan bbq..followed by some face to face DF..and of course cake

Wig thank you so much for the banner! I couldn't have come up with something so clever. I do teach SCUBA lessons on the weekends and as I near retirement, I plan to do it full time once I pull the plug from work. Great banner, thanks so much. Thanks to all the M.O.M's who continue to welcome me to the M.O.M squadron, thanks fellas

Hallå

To day we will be leaving mother Svea(Sweden) crossing the bridge over to Denmark. We will be back on friday, so till then keep safe and shoot thoes red ones.

Use West Systems epoxy. Google. Don't hesitate to call them for advice. Most epoxies will melt the foam. DENT will know the good stuff that he uses for RC.

Show us some pics.

They want about $1500 for the pontoons. Going to work on a pair this winter. I'm having too much fun riding riding in the warmth right now. Going to take it flying first. Just got my "Angel wings" for the pics!

Hey! Hey ! Hey! Noush!
I always thought the middle of all of us was in Australia?

Try this one. www.mikropuhe.com/live/
Then write "on se kone" to speech bubble and press "puhu". Sound good.
I tried "I wan't cake." It was total failure..

Australia? Is that close to Finland?

WIG,
I miss your impeccable writing. More? Please? And more model pics?

I hope you are doing well, buddy.
Paul



FOR ALL: Meet me on Xtreme Soaring 3d

Perfect, thanks Vesa! So it's "own-say-koh-nay", more or less. I should've mentioned to the rest of the squad that your "title" on your banner, "It is a Machine" is the literal translation of On se kone. And that the text at the top means, loosely, "I kill you. I laugh. I am laughing. lolololol!"

Also the text on Lapa's banner (which we may be seeing here very soon!) means something along the lines of, "Welcome to Moscow. Capitalist pig." I had a word other than "pig" in mind but for some reason Google Translate kept rejecting it.


According to Google Translate "I desire cake" in Finnish is "Haluan kakku." I'm guessing that's barely close?

Quite close. Just missing one "a" "Haluan kakkua." Finnish is one of the hardest languages in world. Maby just after Chinese and Japanese. Thats why google translate and Finnish don't mix very well. www.effectivelanguagelearning.com/langua...ide/finnish-language

Great! I've been living my whole childhood in a country that is trying to balance between Soviet Union and west. 1989 Gorbatshow visited my home city. All primary school kids were taken by bus to wave red Soviet Union flags on road side. Lapas banner is so funny!

Theres a love song for Moscow... parental advisory is recommended

Thanks for the phonics help! The biggest help of all was "Vesa". That I can handle one or two syllables is best for this dumb old country boy. You know things like... Boat, fish, fried, plane, fly, fight... Those work for me.

Last day at the lake, headed home this afternoon. For 36 hours! Then off to the coast for a few days before I have to return to that other monosyllabic word.... "Work".... Boooooo

Took a break from the lake yesterday and took the boys to Carowinds. For anyone that isn't familiar its kinda like the trailer park of theme parks. It's a couple notches above "South of the Border" (another minor attraction in SC on I-95), but a far cry from King's Dominion or Busch Gardens and a drop in the bucket compared to Paramount or MouseLand. Had fun though. It's the only park in the US in 2 states (NC & SC).

I'll try to add some pics from the park and lake from my phone after I post this.

The boys and evening Puddin' the Chocolate Lab dig the tube.





Swimming was a big hit and of course Puddin' has to share my float.





At the park... Boys on the state line


Me and Mrs. Parrot


Like father, like son


Me and Parakeet on Afterburn (pic of a pic, sorry about the quality)

Whatever you do, do not translate "12 Months" in Estonian.

Muck, I chased her all night long. Couldn't catch Her. She really shouldn't be that hard to find. She's the only sheep with a Woolyhawk down her back....
Was gonna take a clip from this song... Ran throught the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go.....Decided to post the whole thing..... Some history involved... Kinda...



now the british version

I can't help myself...came across this while looking for good sheep music (Muck )

Great movie and great song....

BUFFETTBRAIN: Great photos! That's one good-looking teacher. Hubba! Hubba!


Looks like the new boat works great. Congrats.
