That's great my friend.... All things pass eh ? Your one of the major supporters of keeping this thread alive, and so we're all glad to see ya back onboard... And besides, its the not same flippin' the others crap as it is with you...LMAO...


LOL.... Yeah, well how bout this for a bleeding.... My ol' lady wanted to move down here to Cali... We were going to stay at my dads guest house until we got established in the area and such, which is a partial reason I'am even down here in Cali along with work being available as my tiny town back home in the sticks has been slow due to the economy... Well, a year later and I'am still here ! The reason being also, is Kelly works at Costco Wholesale and is one of the higher end managers for the store there and she can't get a transfer as there has been no openings... I love it in Washington much better, as I'am an outdoorsman type, and the pickings here for that in Cali are a little slim from what I'am used to, but I was going to do it for her and held out as long as I could and now the seperation is just to unbearable any longer for both of us period... Talking on the phone everyday, and frequent visits once a month or so flying is getting to expensive also... She's only 30, and she's more of the California type with those cool sandy beaches and lots of shopping as we all know the ol' ladies love...LMAO... We've been together for 11 years now and nothing will ever get in the way of that even being seperated for the moment in different states... She's the best thing ever, as I was married 10 years prior and man that first lady with the credit cards was wild ! Its why to this day, I'am freaked out with those cards and don't use them except the pre-paid ones and only for heli-purchases...LOL...

But here's the funny thing I was getting at... I came down here with only a few crafts to Cali... I'll be leaving with double of what I came down with ! LMAO.... The parts collection is just beyond out of control, but those are easier to hide ! Its the planes and heli's in which I might have to get creative... I feel like a full teardown of a few might be at play here... I'll be bleeding like something fierce my friend... LMAO... We'll bleed together... Man she's gonna have my hide...LOL...! But really she's pretty good about the hobby though, and she'll even buy me stuff from time to time, but those are gradual things. This could be more of a shock with everything at once....YIKES....

She's always asking "Are you doing o.k. ?" "How have you been ?" And I'll be like..... Yeah... I guess I'am doing maybe alright..... When in the back of my mind, I'am thinking oh hell ya, I'am having a party and a blast and ordering heli's and parts like a savage, the guys at the LHS open doors for me, call me by my first name, I've got a whole fleet of heli's, the living room here has turned into a full-blown RC shop and the inventory is flowing out the door.....LMAO...! [8D]

So ya..... I can kind of feel your pain Crash.... But I know your ol' lady is pretty good about it also, so that's good.... I was gonna go and chuck an extra boom I have for the 500 for an experiment in my Dewalt drill but it just barely was to big... I wanted to see what it looked like polished aluminum....LMAO... Hmmmmmmm...... There is the 450 though..................

Oh.... Remember Mark ? (Cltmte) I saw him snooping on the forum the other day, so I shot him a P.M. and he's doing good... He hasn't flown nothing for 6 months and hasn't even posted on the forum also until just recently... He was thinking of getting an MCX to get back into the swing of things and such... The last I heard last year with him was he had the Trex and the HBK2 along with the CPP I believe... It was good to see a familiar name once again though... Winter time always brings back a few...
