Default What a GREAT day!!!

Hey all I just wanted to drop a fast message. Some of you guys know about my current situation with myself and my wife. Well some things have happened this week and life is looking GREAT. With alittle work life hopefully will be a whole lot better soon!!! I guess the grass isn't greener on the other side of the fence after all. So to keep this message 1/2a based I am home with a sick 9 year old so I have had a chance to get some work done on the SnagglePuss's. The weather is great out, I have some music playing and a smile on my face....it's all good!

LAter,
Tim

Tim, tell that li'l gal that we hope she feels better soon. At nine, you need to start carving your boy-beater sometime soon. She was too cute! "watch this DADDY!" (turning cartwheels)

Keep up the good work on the Snagglepuss. You may even inspire me to get off my rear and build something.

Tim,

Glad things are getting better!!!!! Hope to see you at Winston Swap Meet on Nov. 12th.

Got a question.....for you and the guys at the Burlington meet.... Does anybody by any chance have my Tower Digital Tach???? I think I may have left it on the table where we were starting engines and I can't locate it. One of the guys may have borrowed it and since my name wasn't on it, may not know whose it was. Let me know if you could... I know it is a small thing.. but... I really hate losing stuff.

thanks,

Dan

Dan,

Are you sure you had yours? I think you used mine once or twice. I think mine is a Tower Tach. I got it from Prole at one of Rog's Meets. He had won it and already had one so he gave it to me.

Later,
Tim

Rog and Vic,

After Rog had finished with it I took the bit out of the drill and put it back in its place in the "rack". I don't remember doing anything with the drill itself. Did it get lost?

Harumph, harumph. To paraphrase Forrest Gump, "old is as old DOES". By the way, is that the way people "smile" at you with all them teeth showing? Hah.

Dan,


Oh CRAP!!!!! I was cleaning and packing some things up just now getting ready to move again and thought how funny it would be if your tach was really in my make shift flight line box. Well I open it up and look in and what do I see but not one but rather two Tower Hobbies Digital Mini Tachs!!! Gees I feel like a DORK[] I can't tell which is yours and which is mine so I'll close my eyes and pick one and send it off to you.

LAter,
Tim
