  1. 1/144 Argus by Welsh models. Was on my list for years until I found it for a price that I could justify. Still waiting to be confident enough to get at it.
  2. Just when I was ready for a Sunday afternoon nap......... http://www.nationalreview.com/article/443612/f-35-donald-trump-should-cancel-failed-f-35-fighter-jet-program
  3. Parents usually don't want to stay home or arrange alternate day care. Sad, but I've seen it many times.
  4. I better alert my wife and spend less time in the bathroom.🙄
  5. That last reaction sounds like a Doc that's tired of people diagnosing themselves. Kind of like people defending themselves in court where judges aren't usually very impressed seeing the legal background they come from.
  6. Why do these phones have to be sooooooo important? Is everyone so vital and important that they can't talk on the phone when they're home or in the office? My kids wouldn't be caught dead with the wrong phone. If I go upstairs right now, I'm sure I'll see my son laying on his bed with his phone texting his friends that are all doing the same. Sheesh! Enough already. That said, I'm sitting here eating lunch while I cruise ARC. If the phone on the wall rings I might not answer it.
  7. +1 that is a part of the experience that I savour. The dream. Sometimes I get so zoned out that I don't hear my wife which can put me into an uncomfortable situation. Once in a while these dreams are realized.
  8. A VERY BIG NUMBER If I give you $1 billion and you stand on a street corner handing out $1 per Second, twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, you would still not have Handed out $1 billion after 31 years!! Now read on. A VERY BIG NUMBER This is too true to be funny. The next time you hear a politician use the word 'billion' in a casual Manner, think about whether you want the 'politicians' spending YOUR tax Money. A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency Did a good job of putting that figure into some pers
  9. Sore spot for sure. Is there a problem with what Bomb offers that we allways have to prop them up? If I am in business and my product line can't survive without subsidy, isn't it time for a reset? Look at our CBC. I can't believe the junk they put out that we pay for. How many world class outlets are clamouring for their programming? Watched the CBC morning news show lately? You are watching a radio studio, live. No news clips or graphics. This is what they call entertainment. If they put their hands out, we will encourage them with more handouts.
  10. Boy, do I feel silly. I don't remember what news blurb I saw now, but it sounded like a done deal. Thanks for setting me straight. Think I'll take a nap now.
  11. So Trump has cancelled his new ride. What are my friends to the south saying about this? Our PM has an Airbus. Is this like showing up to the front of the Oscars in a Hyundai? Has Boeing just gotten too comfortable? Leave politics out or I'll get blacklisted.
  12. Hope they don't pull this topic. It seems to be a getting ARC back to the kind of discussion I used to enjoy so much before the big shutdown. It's been pretty dead around here since it got back on line. Suppose we can trust some more politically correct person to insist it's stepping outside the rules.
  13. Well I was some hot yesterday! I booked an appointment in January for 10:00am. How backed up can they get in an hour? Think I'll build some models.
  14. The fun just never ends. What to believe anymore? As one of the people that will be funding all of this, I would appreciate a few straight answers from my government. I had to take the battery out of my BS detector because it wouldn't stop. Why aren't the BIG newspapers making more of all of this? The average citizen just shuffles along....life as normal and remains unaware. Quiz some of the regular people around you and you will hear very few informed opinions. My rant for today.
  15. Afternoon all Two weeks ago I picked up a prescription that I've been picking up for years and they tell me that my doctor wants to see me to give me a flu shot and check my blood pressure. Called the clinic and they gave me an appt. for 3:45....... Cool. When I turned up at the right time, the place was mobbed with so many patients that there were people standing along all the walls as the seating was full. when I announced myself at the desk, they told me to go away for at least an hour and check back. This is our family doctor for the last twenty five years. I told them I'd rebook
  16. Took the words right out of my mouth. I'd be all over it.
  17. Low and slow. Sounds like a good time for target practice.
  18. Watched and enjoyed it. Another example of a useless UN. Guess I better build one of the jets now.
  19. I am embarrassed at our stance on this issue. We are telling all of the program partners that they have made the wrong move. Maybe I should think about moving somewhere where people seem to have their heads screwed on straight. Norway? Denmark? Oz? Holland?
