We did a glass bottom boat tour in the bay on a dead calm day. She managed to get queasy and she was on prescription anti-nausea medicine. I have never been motion sick so I have no basis to compare it to.

We are bidding on a project for a company that their final client is branch of the Federal Government. They must have legions of bureaucrats to keep busy with silly paperwork. They have requested a ton of documentation from us. Down to the Airworthiness Certificate on our airplane. We have meticulous logs and records. We dug out the original certificate from 1965 when the certificate was issued. They replied they need a copy the back side of it as well. It is blank. We made a copy for them as requested. Never before has anyone wanted to see a copy of the front of the certificate much less the back. The airplane of course has a tail number. Anyone can look it up and see it is current with a current annual and registration all taxes licenses are up to date. They want copies of the weights and balances, and on and on. Oh well.

Afternoon all.
Jim, I would think that tall lightening rod would be a perfect way to charge the flux capacitor. You should have plenty of wind to get up to speed in a thunderstorm as well! We had a great day Saturday but Sunday and Today are raining again. Our Muay Thai instructor told our daughter she was badass so that made her weekend. We watched Star Trek: Fast and Furious. It was OK. Some of the camera work was pretty bad but not as bad as I had feared.

I always thought basketball would be far more interesting if they put a van de graaff generator on the hoop.

basketball would be far more interesting if I had something else to watch.

Any game overpaid professionals are playing is boring to watch as far as I can see.
F1 drivers are overpaid as well but they are putting up with 8 Gs loading in corners and real danger.

The banquets are expensive. Of course they have a drawing after each meal for the people that paid for the meal. I never win as much as a hat or t-shirt. Some people win sets of tires and have won more than once. They give away two different trips to Germany. No way I will ever win something that cool.

my fill of basketball in the HS band and having to play then later direct as drum major at all the games.
The only basketball game I even came close to enjoying was years later when I attended the State Championship game between my old HS and other. My old HS was playing like they were just happy to be in the championship and giving all the team members a chance to play. The other school was playing the heck out of their 5 star players to whole game. The score was so close it when into not just one or two, but at least a dozen overtimes. I don't even remember who won. But remember everyone from both sides commenting what a great game is was as we made our way out of the gym. It was interesting that you could tell the other team's star players were getting tired and my school would put in their bench warmers and the crowd would cheer like their entire family had come to see them. It became a constant rotation of the entire team against their star lineup.

That Corona Looks Empty!
Did my taxes this evening. Let's just say I certainly hope things change for the better. For the last 8 years my pay steadily decreased and my taxes increased. Did some research, found my old iPhone 6 is worth $125 with the charging port messed up because it would cost $75 to have it fixed. Brother is living on SSI and only makes about $1300 a month. I don't know how he does it. His only phone is a mobile he has with Sprint. His phone is so old to text you have to use the phone keypad numbers and it just has like a 4 line screen. And after 4 or 5 minutes talking his phone gets so hot he has to hang up. Googled and there are cheap prepaid wireless accounts for about $30/m, he is currently paying $40. Says he is stuck in his plan because of the old phone (no body supports it except for Sprint because it is so old) and he can't afford to get a new one. So, decided to fix and give him the iPhone 6. It is a Verizon phone and is unlocked so he could be able to swap SIM cards for free and stay with Sprint for the same price, or move to another cheaper carrier since he would be bringing his own phone. Discovered att is the only carrier left locking phones to their network. You can't use phones purchased with att on any other carrier. Several years ago I was going to give him a free email account on Zipbang.com. Talked to him and found he clicks on spam because he thinks they are legitimate businesses offering good deals. He had an on-line store he was reselling with and was basically spamming small scale. Did not want that crap on my server either him trying to send emails out to lists OR all the incoming spam traffic he gets because he clicks on spam. So just showed him how to use Yahoo. Can't believe he puts up with getting over 500 spams a day and thinks that is Okay.

Morning Y'all,
Yeah pollen season is here, but at least I don't have to shovel it or wear a jacket to deal with it, Viva-La-spring
