Rick,
You and your wife should come and visit sometime - maybe the Spring Air Festival - usually in April or May. You can then see me demonstrate how NOT to land.

Thanks for posting
First, thanks for posting. I did notice two things - one, the student pilot had their hands up high instead of lowering them or letting the downtubes slide up through the hands as the glider started to lift. Second, it looks like in at least some of the flights the student was landing down hill - if...

Don, I think you have the definitions of spending and cutting mixed up. If your kids spend more, you have less, but if you cut their allowance you have more. Politicians are like kids without the maturity nor common sense. Since I don't have kids there is nothing to cut and that explains why I don'...

Great Offer - No Personal Interest
I think it is great that you and Chip are offering to do all this work.
I personally would have NO use or interest in this service availability at this time.

Theory behind Tax Cuts
So you see Don you need to spend money to make money. This sounds like the logic the politians (Republicans mostly) use to justify tax cuts. Cut taxes and the money will pour in! I personally have tried this numerous times. I spend money and expect my wallet will soon be refilled and over flowing w...

They saw how we handle our money and decided to give it to the elk. Bye the way Don, do you know what the split was on material/labor for the gazebo foundation? In the real world it's 45/55 and the way the economy is, it could have been 50/50. No I don't know the split. I always thought SHGA would ...

storage container
I presume you would prefer something metal/water proof?
I have a decent looking wood cabinet - maybe I'll bring it next time I'm driving the truck and you can look at it.

Bribes Won't Work ?

It is worth the price!
