I see Chuck S. won an award... "best antique ultralight." I think it refers to
an airplane. :-)

Some one built one of Chuck's kits and got an award so Chuck actually
won twice but only one to take home.

Congrats on the 245#.
The Muzzle Loader Diet?

Radio morning Krew was talking about the old carnival freak show days, at
the State Fair. They said "nobody" would pay to see the Fat Man anymore -
because, these days, that's no longer a big deal. <g>

Freaks (1932)

I'm 103 legal ONLY if I can convince the FAA that my tum-tum is a "float".

Here we are at the local YMCA pool for Part 103 buoyancy testing.
Now, you two FAA types just try and get me down to the bottom, in the deep
end of the pool. Good luck. :-)

Too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect
Good and bad, I define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow.
Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now."

When was that written?
[When I'm...] '64, or course. :-)

Yup <g> ....but Bob Dylan wrote it.
My Back Pages is the name of the tune.

No Direction Home: Bob Dylan (2005)
By: Martin Scorsese

This was a two night PBS special this winter. OUTSTANDING!

Dylan was a GREAT interview subject. This documentary surprised me - how
well it was crafted and how interesting it was. I wanted "more!" "more!"
"more!" when it was over. More meaning: 1966 (London) through 1975. Hope
that's in the works.

Scorsese's documentary starts, and ends, with the 1966 London crowd booing
and walking out on Dylan.

Our family Dylan connection - my older sister helped install custom stained
glass windows, 30 years ago, in his MN house. She met his brother, IIRC.
Bobbie wasn't home.

That's interesting. We camped adjacent to a lady who volunteered at
registration. She said they were experiencing record crowds, and that they
were having to skimp on some of the give-aways at registration, such as the
stickers...

Check out "The Last Waltz" also by Martin Scorsese
It's chronicles "The Band" who did a lot of work with Dylan and also Dylan
performs in this movie also. It centers around there last concert. Great
flick, I also want to get the Dylan one when it's out on DVD. My favorite!
OK I'm giving away my age!

Yeah I get to play a couple times a year and it's still fun. I played in a band
for 10 years and quit in 1975. We were a good bar band but never made it big
time .That's when I decided to get into something that made money ...aviation!!
Strike two LOL!!!
I remember the cord being out but since I don't play any leads I didn't notice
right away.
