Nothing, except that shelf is too narrow and the front feet hang off the shelf, and there is no electricity over there. It is too big to fit where the old one is.

We would have to uses an extension cord. It is bigger and heavier and would be a real pain to get 10 feet in the air to the top of the shelf unit.

Our chief pilot has talked about taking it out to the hangar to warm up his coffee.

I don't know why, but I always get a kick out of this one. #1 @ 4:11 if it doesn't embed properly.

May have alienated my Brother Bob. Pun intended.

He keeps sending me emails of stuff that is copied off this "news" site that looks like it is just selling books that the "news" is about. Or to find out more pay for a subscription to the news feed. It all extraterrestrials and the conspiracies to keep their involvement in things secret.

Last night he sent one that claims one of the Presidential candidates is a time traveler and has been to a secret base on Mars. Then a couple of hours later he texts me to see if I'm awake and if I got the email. Said yep and was up so he asked what I thought of the "news." Texted didn't read it. He said it was really important stuff and I needed to know about it. I went off...

First off there is nothing to prove or disprove anything those "whistleblowers" say. And a couple of people with the same story of being involved in secret activities or groups is not proof of anything except corroboration between those people.

Next, I invest the majority of my time in things to be able pay my bills and to do and get some of the things I want. I don't see any financial opportunities in that stuff except for those selling the subscriptions and books about that stuff.

I am happy to spend my time listening and talking to you about whatever you want to talk about, but when you ask and expect me to spend my time to research into that stuff by reading and digging into things you have already spent your time on that is where you lose me.

This is where he said if I don't invest my time in finding out about this stuff, I am not investing any time in him. And he can't talk to me because he is on a higher level of understanding.

Said I have friends I talk with all the time. And many of those friends are working on projects and into things that are cutting edge and they have a much higher understanding than I do. None of them expect me to go off and do research on what they are into to talk about it. And I don't ask or expect them to go do research on the things I am into either.

His final text was "so be it."

Yup, everyone knows the secret base in on the back side of the moon. :)

RKDinOKC 04-13-2016 02:30 PM

The base on the back side of the moon is where 1500 extraterrestrials live.

And then there's the colony on Mars. That college age kids in the military are drafted to go spend their life there serving the extraterrestrials.

Figure Hey, as long as they stay off my lawn!

GH85Carrera 04-13-2016 02:38 PM

I always wanted to introduce the alien cover up folks and the deniers of the Apollo mission to the moon and let them show their evidence to each other. Both types are not worth talking to at all, unless it is to make fun of the silly BS.

RKDinOKC 04-13-2016 02:47 PM

How about the world is flat crowd? Or is that a whole different kind of special.

GH85Carrera 04-13-2016 06:31 PM

How about flat earth society talking to the chemtrail nuts. That would be interesting.

Jim Richards 04-13-2016 06:59 PM

Hey, I spent a few hours in Roswell, NM last week. At least I thought it was a few hours.

Hey guys SmileWavy

We've had a busy coupla weeks since Easter. Had a great time camping although it was a little hot (38C all weekend) but we had a nice waterhole to play in.

The home pc 5hit itself over Easter and I haven't had a chance to fcuk with it yet, so when I do I'll chuck some pics up.

Happy retirement Jim, congrats (sorry about the loss of your trailer - that's just fcuked up).

Btw guys, the GS made his grand appearance yesterday. Allow me to introduce you to my little mate, Lukas :cool:

Cheers.

GH85Carrera 04-14-2016 05:29 AM

So I presume grandpa will not spoil the little rug rat at all. Yea, right. Just blame the spoiling on grandma.

Good morning all.

Jim Richards 04-14-2016 06:20 AM

Congrats, Jeff!

GH85Carrera 04-14-2016 06:50 AM

Hey wait, Jeff did nothing at all except hold a baby and HE gets the congratulations? Yea, sounds about right, the grandpas do all the hard work! ;)

Congrats Jeff. Maybe you should have a cold beer as a reward for all that effort to have a grandson. :p

You got the minivan yet? Think all grandparents are required to drive a minivan to haul the grandkids around.

Porsche-poor 04-14-2016 07:08 AM

good morning all. Congrats on the new addition!

GH85Carrera 04-14-2016 08:04 AM

Grrrrr.

We get at least one phone call per day from companies wanting to "save us money" on credit card processing. The reality is we might do 25 credit card transactions per YEAR. Many of those are government agencies that can pay us with a CC but a check takes a full bid proposal. Most of our customers pay by check or electronic transfer.

As a business we pretty much have to answer all calls. We just tell the constant stream of callers the same thing, we don't do credit cards, just cash, young pigs, chickens and goats. No cows or bulls those are too big and dangerous.

I know they are just trying to earn a living but dang, don't call bug me on a daily basis about it.

porsche4life 04-14-2016 08:08 AM

Congrats Jeff! Looks like a healthy little boy! How will Imi take not being the center of attention?
