Keep taking the pet meds Dick.. Sorry, but my grandmother was Irish, I don't have scottish needs for brain poisons. But I think you're overdue for your checkup with the herpetologist. |

Hey Big Len,
I am confused. I thought you gave up gliding because the cost was going to cripple you but here you are throwing your money away! Perhaps if you stopped giving money to people to phone the Chaplain then you could afford a tow. You daft racist!

Definition of 'racist': Were I to give you a quarter, would you be so kind as to go down the hall to the nearest pay phone, dial the chaplain, and see if he gives a ****? |

IF I were still flying, I couldn't afford the quarter, and many, far too many, other things. Still trying to figure out how to get paid for the skids I made without ending up losing more to the taxman than I bring in. Safest way is to let them fall through the cracks, but if I'm going to work for nothing, working doesn't make any sense. OR are you telling me you know where I can get a tow for a quarter?

Al wrote: I did a 700K in my Ventus Mat You can check it out at onlinecontest.org Now quit spamming us Al "mat Redsell" wrote in message ... The Marske PioneerIId has been doing some flight testing and cross country lately. See the Marske site for details. -mat -- Marske Flying Wings http://www.continuo.com/marske A monarch isn't a ventus, but a J3 Cub isn't a Mooney either. To be honest, the monarch looks like an incredibly fun glider to fly. We don't tell 1-26 or K-6 drivers to go away simply because they can't compete with the glass boys; Oh wait a minute, Didn't Dave Stevenson just come in third place with a K6???? Maybe a Marske can't get the xcountry range of a Ventus, but I was thrilled beyond belief when I made my first 12 mile fligh in a hang glider and made it back to the LZ. If I had time, I would love to have a J3, a Monarch, a Grumman Tiger, a Hang glider, and a K6E in addition to my LS3. Might as throw in a BMW motorcyle while I'm at it. I really wouldn't want to replace my LS3 with a Ventus. If I did, I wouldn't have an excuse for doing so poorly. :-) I am, and have always been, fascinated by the Horton Flying wing. Have you seen the aspect ratio on their last glider? It's incredible. I am curious as to the actual aspect ratio and L/D. I am glad that Marske is venturing into that realm. There is room enough in this group for all forms of soaring without a bunch of bickering. I'm glad Mat is keeping us informed. Marty Pautz |

and many, far too many, other things. Still trying to figure out how to get paid for the skids I made without ending up losing more to the taxman than I bring in. Safest way is to let them fall through the cracks, but if I'm going to work for nothing, working doesn't make any sense. OR are you telling me you know where I can get a tow for a quarter? Lennie the Lurker I was being sarcastic you stupid racist. I will tell you what - if you bugger off and leave us alone. I will buy you a tow. You can even keep your 25c. I am constantly amazed at how angry you are with everything! Gliding, taxes (try living in Europe if you want to see real tax........I know, I know. You wouldnt live here with us because we are blah blah blah), Al, RAS.....the list goes on and on! I have been trying to work out why you are so vitriolic; Do you fancy Al? Were you no good at gliding? Do you pay more tax than anyone else? Does it annoy you that no-one here listens to you? Owain |

Nor do I see anything racist about picking up on als prejudice and throwing it back at him. Do you fancy Al? I happen to prefer females of the human race. Were you no good at gliding? I have no idea. Nor does it matter at all, just something else I found that I can do, and moved on to something more productive. Do you pay more tax than anyone else? No. I have reached the income limit, the point where for every dollar I earn, a dollar is deducted from my social security. It should not be hard, even for you, to understand that I would be working for nothing, which makes no sense, or doing charity work for a profit making organization, which makes less sense. (In fairness to the owner of the operation, he would probably bend over backwards to try to help me in this regard, but in the interest of legality, I would rather not take any risks. It's not worth risking a tax evasion charge for a couple of hundred bucks, or even risking an audit. As I am seen at the gliderport rarely, I don't know who there is my friend, or who is my enemy.) Does it annoy you that no-one here listens to you? Not in the slightest. Normally, the only ones that have ever listened to me, are the people that sign the check. If you can tell me anyone else that counts, I'd be interested in hearing it. Lennie the Lurker |
