Just share with you guys something funny...

I bought the T-34 last Feb and kept it in my office all this while so that my wife won't know about my new purchase.

So...when I decided to convert the T-34 to elmod and then bring it back home recently, I brought my M26 Pershing from home to the office and brought the T-34 back home instead. I was hoping that SINCE women know NUTS about tanks, she won't be able to tell the diff between an M26 and a T-34. To make my deception more convincing, I took pain to spray paint the T-34 from white to olive drab. Well, did it work?

Yah...kind of.

For the first 2 days, she said nothing when I played with it at home. BUT.... On the third day when I was playing with the T-34 in the living room, my wife suddenly took a closer look at the tank and then said, "Hey, I don't remember your tank has these 3 drums behind. IS THIS A NEW TANK AGAIN?" [:-]

The rest of the story you know...There goes my hope of buying a 21st century M48 for conversion to RC.[]

So I guess the morale of the story is this - Never underestimate your wives.
