It's 10*F here! I'm not a fan of cold winter flying. I did it once and I'm not doing it again unless it's indoors.

Yes, I have a back issue as well and while I'm building this: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_10038870/tm.htm I'm looking for a job that will hire me with the 40lbs lifting restrictions.

I make enough off of unenjoyment to give my wife the cash every other week, and between that the money is mine to build with. Thank God my wife has a good job or I'd have to leave the hobby.

The doctors want to give me full disability because of a torn disk and degeneration. I got hurt on one of my past jobs, and won free medical for my back for the rest of my life. ( I refused the cash settlement) They say it's too risky for surgery, but I've worked all my life and I refuse to give up my life style. When I can't walk anymore, then I'll consider it. Other than that, the govenment handouts can all go to H3ll. I like earning what I make and don't want a hand out.

I'll find a job sooner or later. Building and flying R/C- and full size aircraft seems to always lift my spirits and keeps me somewhat sane. [&:]

That reminds me, I have a AMA R/C Club meeting this Sunday. Time for my yearly dues of $40.00!
