    HMMMM, why would this administration want to keep this stirred up?
     
    1. To use it as a tool to attack those unnecessary stand your ground self defense laws? 
    2. To use it to try to stir up more anti gun sentiment and promote anti gun laws?
    3. To use if as a way to increase race baiting and racial division?
    4. To keep the distraction going so no one remembers about the IRS, Bengausi, monitoring American citizen communications, fast and furious, etc, ...?
    5. All of the above?

    Nice looking pair!  and should make a nice combination.  I heard the Q2 had issues in the rain; disrupting the airflow over the wing.  Is tthat the case and did it get resolved?

    The Rabbi received a letter from the IRS.  The Temple was going to get audited! 
     
    The auditor arrived at his appointed time and proceded to put the Rabbi through the most intensive, obtrusive, in depth audit.  He looked at every number five times over!  The auditor was begining to get irritated that he could find nothing wrong.  Not the least little penny.
     
    FInally the auditor said to the Rabbi, "Look at all these candles around here.  All those drippings are wasteful.  What do you do with them all?"
     
    The Rabbi responded, "We collect all the drippings and send them back to the candle supplier.  After a year they send us a small box of candles for free!"
     
    Getting even more irritated, the auditor said, "What about all those matzah balls?  All the crumbs that come off those are very wasteful!"
     
    The Rabbi responded, " We collect those for the supplier, too.  After a year the manufacturer sends us a small box of them for free, too."
     
    Now the auditor was getting down right mad.  He said, "What about all the foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?"
     
    The Rabbi responded smugly, "We send those to the IRS."
     
    The auditor said, "What??  Why do you send them to the IRS?"
     
     
     
     
    "Well, after a year the IRS sends us a little prick, for free!"

    I haven't been flying the Q-2 much since I started building the Avid but it does handle 45 kt winds that we get here in the winter.  It is also nice for traveling any kind of distance in a hurry with the 150 kt cruise.

    Sweet! Congrats Mr.!   Now your ready to range out and hit some cool places!   Does the Q2 get more flight time with the normal winds around there?

    O field trash

    I Love You, Sweetheart...... There was a group of women gathered at a seminar on how to live in a loving relationship with your husband.

    The women were asked,

    'How many of you love your husbands?'

    All the women raised their hands.

    Then they were asked,

    'When was the last time you told your husband you loved him?'

    Some women answered today, some yesterday, some didn't remember..

    The women were then told to take their cell phones and send the following

    text to their respective husband:

    "I love you, sweetheart."

    Then the women were told to exchange phones and read the responding text messages.

    Here are some of the replies:

    1. Eh, mother of my children, are you sick?

    2. What now? Did you crash the car again?

    3. I don't understand what you mean?

    4. What did you do now? I won't forgive you this time!!!

    5. ?!?

    6. Don't beat about the bush, just tell me how much you need?

    7. Am I dreaming? ????

    8. If you don't tell me who this message is actually for, you will die today...!!!

    9. I asked you not to drink anymore!!

    and the best one

    10. Who is this?

    Crumpled Money......
     
    A man was sitting and reading his paper when his wife enters the house, she approaches him in a most provocative manner. "Have you ever seen a twenty dollar bill all crumpled up?" asks the wife in a soft sweet voice.

    Not knowing what to make of this situation he replies, "No."

    Pursing her lips she gives him a sexy little smile, reaches into her cleavage and slowly pulls out a crumpled up twenty dollar bill.

    Then stepping closer in she asks in a low sexy voice, "Have you ever seen a fifty all crumpled up?"

    Intrigued, he answers, "Uh, no."

    She gives him another sexy little smile, seductively reaches into her panties and ever so slowly removes a crumpled fifty dollar bill.

    "Now," she says as she leans down and whispers, "have you ever seen 30,000 dollars all crumpled up?"

    Totally confused and excited he stammers, "No-o-o-o-o."

    "Well," she whispers in his ear, "then go look in the garage..."

    I dumbly and happily flew anything with wings and a tail for years - my machine work was usually on the heavy end - Then I went to AMT school, and my "education" about planes put some fear into me. Now, I have to go watch the videos of the contraptions that the aviation pioneers flew in order for me to bravely get into some of the more flimsy, light weight, flying things. I still like the Taylor / Piper proven designs - And, no, I never looked at the tail bolts of an Otter or Beaver, but I understand that they do not fall off.Keep us posted - This is interesting to me, even if I don't swim!
    They have caught sharks in the Mississippi River at Alton, Illinois, 1750 miles from the ocean!

    and with the current rigging I have, my rudder just clears the water as it is.  I don't really want to raise it up any more due to the pendulum affect of the floats on the plane. 
     
    I think I will do a quick sheet metal fin and see how much I need to help out the hunt and peck issue.  I dont think it will add crap for a load on the mounts.  If you see the three small bolts that holds the tail on an otter you would not worry about the loads a couple fins would put on our tails

    OK - Think I finally got the message. Nose-draggers can be a pain when changing tire sizes - either the tail is down with small mains, or the tail is sky-high and the prop is down with large ones - got to plan ahead for that.Thanx,

    Leni,I watched a Cessna on floats taking off, and the V-fin dragged in the water - I see what you mean - very good video with belly camera at Lake Iliamna, or Clark.

    “There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.â€

    That's what I am referring to. The 800 x 6 x 21 is basically a very light 850. A little narrower and a little taller, but much lighter.

    Again I switched to Grove, wheels, brakes and gear, along with these 21" tires and the plane only gained 12#.

    Joey,I had to take a second look at your photos - Did not catch that you're comparing 6 inch tires to 8 inch - Guess to go off-road I have to buy new 8 inch wheels after selling mine?
    Are you comparing Desser tire with McCreary both on the 6 inch wheels, or different wheels? - How much weight difference on the 6 inch, and how much better? Sorry, I got confused. Do they make a light-weight 8.50 x 6 ?

    Not limited to men. Don't you recall that old diddly that goes something like this:

    We must
    We must
    We must increase our bust
    The bigger the better
    The tighter the sweater
    The boys depend on us

    )

    P.S. - well I ain't buying it Larry. Last time I saw you, you were driving a big honkin' diesel pickup... and a manual shift Cummins, if there's something to be inferred from that!?
