I would love to have an all night laundromat! I work nights, so that would be perfect. Right now I usually do the laundry every other weekend, when the place is packed and it's almost guerilla warfare in order to acquire and keep one of the baskets, let alone a few dryers. Matt

I was down at MDW doing some work on a Netjets CE-750 coupla months ago. The written squawk was something like "APU fails to start either engine." Not the most descriptive squawk, and the crew already left, so I can't ask them for any more details. So I decided to start up the APU in order to find out for myself exactly what it was doing. Power on, read the checklist, hit the APU start.... BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM Sounded like a 50 cal machine gun! Nearly crapped myself, shut everything down in a hurry, stepped outside and saw smoke curling out of the APU exhaust. Eventually learned that the bleed air check valves were screwed up and the back pressure was causing the APU to compressor stall. You shoulda heard it. I was scared the whole plane was exploding and it was going to be my fault for missing some important step on the checklist. Anyway, the pictures kinda reminded me of that. Matt

One more. Matt

Most plastic swords are far too flimsy. One good whack and they bend in half. Wood or metal are the preferred materials. If your right arm got cut off, then you picked up the sword in your left hand and carried on with the fight. Lose one leg? Start hopping. Lose both legs? On your knees, but still flailing away with the sword. Lose your one remaining limb? Stuff the handle of the sword in your armpit and keep swinging. You usually got killed pretty quickly after that.

one more and I'm done. Matt

Famous last words. Matt

Nope, no blanket statements here. Just saying that my perspective on the original question was formed from sitting ringside while a good friend was beaten down, so that's where my vote went. Matt

I had to vote no. I know a guy who fell for a beautiful woman who just happened to take her clothes off for money in order to support her little girl. Six months later, he's lost a job, he's paid several thousand dollars for her breast enlargement, he's estranged a few friends, he's started drinking again, he's accused of rape, and there's a round of restraining orders for everybody involved. Granted, he was an idiot in several ways; it wasn't entirely her fault. But she was an incredibly destructive influence, so I gotta vote no. Matt

Clearly a bearing failure in the cascading smog pump. Matt

Walt, I was actually kinda disappointed by that one; it was hardly offensive at all. I know you've got better than that! Matt

Wisconsin? I was actually thinking that series of curves looked familiar.... but there's no way, that would be too freaky. Whereabouts in Wisconsin? Matt -
I think both of you guys' phones ran off to elope with each other. Matt

Happened to me once, on AFF1. Loading up the plane, I'm extremely amped and hyper-aware of all the unfamiliar sensations, running the tasks through my head so I don't forget what to do. More people get packed into the plane, everybody scoots back as fas we can, and I can't help noticing the very cute girl sitting in front of me on the straddle bench. I've got a very close look at her cute hair and cute neck and cute ears with cute earrings.

LMAO!!!! Follow the link, read the short article there, find out that parkour was started by people in the French army, and that it's considered very useful for running away from a conflict!!!! That's perfect. It writes itself.

0:0:0 Same as last weekend, and same as all foreseeable weekends for at least a few months. Take my advice: PLF. Hurting your back sucks. Matt

Don't be fooled; many of us have a deep appreciation of small ta-tas.

That sandwich sounds seriously good! Matt

There's a mom&pop tex-mex place I like nearby. Most of the servers know to not bother asking "Would you like chips and salsa? Hot or mild?" They just bring out the chips and both salsas as soon as I sit down. It's great.

mmmm....honey nut cheerios....... Matt

So I woke up feeling not so great and decided to treat myself to breakfast like I was still in school: cold pizza and mountain dew.

I remember watching this on tv at the time, and even as a whuffo child I thought it was unusual that he still had so much freefall time after passing 1100 feet. One of the main reasons I stopped watching television: tv producers believe the audience are idiots and treat them poorly. Matt
