destroyed one half-built flying wing, via rogue runaway T-Maxx <www.t-maxx.com> while I was moving.

During the same move, destroyed the outer panel of one wing that was finished except for covering, ripped the empennage off another sailplane's fuselage, cracked the plastic ABS canopy <ah well, a carved balsa one will be lighter>, damaged the covering and one rib of one of my flight-ready sailplanes, and broke the vertical stab on the same plane.

Grrrrrr. No wonder I prefer LAND-based RC...

Decided that neighborcide is an attractive alternative.

Future Shop and Staples do NOT have 1.2v Lithium Ion batteries for the Kodak DX6440. As a matter of fact, no batteries whatsoever. And the battery size is half way between a AA and a AAA. :grrrrrrr: I will now try Office Despot (Depot) and Don's Photo (where no doubt it is double the price of anywhere else.) Raggafrackalack. I'm P.O.'ed.

Try getting them online!

-noticed that the move is going much more smoothly today- mainly due to the wife being at the house squaring things away while I'm at the apartment clearing quarters. Still, we've spent a good bit of time in the same location with each other, without their being ANY snippiness. I must have woke up in a better mood or something, despite being QUITE uncomfortable on the bed last night.

Googled for catapult plans and the recipe for "Greek Fire"...

Hurt my girls' feelings? You inbred c*cks*ckers... Let's see how your house looks aflame.

Put up three more screens, and took down all but two of the storm windows. Came to the conclusion that we need a LOT less windows in this house...

Finally got around to colouring my hair (only been meaning to do it for the last 2 weeks), so now I'm killing time online while I wait for it to soak in. Have another 35 minutes to go before I may rinse.

Then, since it doesn't appear to be raining (there's what looks suspiciously like SUN outside), the BBQ is on, so I'll be heading over to my friends' house in about an hour or so.

I'm still laughing! icon_mrgreen.gif

When I walked up to the BBQ, the sun was shining. And as I later discovered, it's this most AMAZING shade of red when sunlight hits it! icon_lol.gif My poor friends...they all looked at me, looked again, eyes widened...and finally my friend (who does hair) says carefully, "Well, hi! You look different." Thought I was gonna die. icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif It'll calm down in a week or so.

As mentioned, went to the BBQ. We got about four hours in before it started raining again, which isn't bad. Got to play with the kid (almost nine months now, where did the time go?), and ate some darn fine food.

Then came home and took out the trash between rainshowers.

Now sitting here thinking about my contract negotiation meeting tomorrow, which oughtta be interesting with this hair... icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

I subscribed to the paper newspaper again icon_mrgreen.gif

I'd been putting it off for a while, but there was a dude at the supermarket with a special deal!! I got a discount and some gift certificates. I also got his phone number. But I don't know if that was just extra special customer service or something.
Felix4067
Got up an hour ago for no apparent reason other than that I set may alarm too early.

Had plenty of time for coffee, and to lament the fact that it's June 1 and only 60 degrees with even more rain predicted for the day. Am now VERY worried for our outdoor Festival of the Arts this weekend.

Had coffee, got into a debate at another site, started getting ready for my meeting...discovered my hair is no less dramatically coloured than it was when I went to bed. icon_lol.gif

I simply had to post. How's this for weird...I'm at the union office!

icon_lol.gif

First time I have EVER visited a forum while here. Mostly because I'm not actually working at the moment, we're waiting for the pizza to arrive so we can quick eat before we drive down for a contract negotiation meeting.

I just had to stop by, so I could be like everyone else and post from the office. icon_wink.gif icon_lol.gif

Picked up stuff from a giveaway that we did at the bank. Now we have 76 names of people to bug about getting thier picture taken.

Sucked it up and realized I need to get a job. Not alot here. Applied at an appliance store and the coke plant. I will see what happens.

I would, but I don't really need distractions right now.

icon_mrgreen.gif

Although his glasses *were* like mine...icon_confused.gif

The experience of meeting him reminded me of some stuff a tarot card reader suggested to me. She told me to stop dating people in my industry and maybe go for a bimbo. [For the last five years, I've dated pretty much only people in the IT biz - programmers, networking people, engineers, etc.]

After talking about my job for a bit, he told me how much the CEO of Electronic Arts was making, but he didn't admitted he did not understand what I was talking about my profession. Oh, and I'm not saying he was a bimbo icon_redface.gif

I honestly don't think I could date a bimbo. Intellectual stimulation is important to me wheeeeeh.gif

Geez, this post is getting long...

Anyway, this morning, I went to the gym, went to a meeting, and ran some errands.

This was my workout (for my personal reference later...):

1a. Lunges on a half-pipe (8 lbs)
b. Push-ups with hands on ball
c. Squats on half-pipe while doing front raises (5 lbs)
2. Five minute run
3a. Pull-ups on Smith machine
b. Single arm shoulder press on BOSU (8 lbs)
c. Crunches on BOSU
4. Five minute run
5a. Arm drop on half-pipe (5 lb)
b. Knee lift on half-pipe
