Hi, Jerry! Still here, mostly just lurking these days. I will wait for the unveiling. As of right now, I'm not feeling it, but I think I said the same thing about the C7, but then I saw one in person and fell in love with it. I've already put over 100,000 miles on my '14 convertible Stingray. I'm sure it will be a beautiful car, but will it really be a Corvette? The iconic Vette is sleek, with a long front and short ass. Will it be the death knoll of the brand (America's Sports Car that is affordable), or will the C8 (price-point) skyrocket it into supercar status? Right now, another negative for me is that apparently there will not be a convertible. Never say never, but...

BillyVance's "You Can't Make This Up" News Stories Thread
oldwomanc6 replied to BillyVance's topic in The Bonfire
That is funny. I remember watching a newscast in the mid '70s and their lead story was " Euell Gibbons dies of Natural Causes". At the time, I thought that was one of the funniest things, ever. -
In memory of our friends on "Spikes Beech" 1982
oldwomanc6 replied to timber's topic in Blue Skies - In Memory Of
Mr.owc6 and I were going through our log books and found this. It makes me sad all over again. -
I've only been to a Fudruckers once, but you know how they yell out the order? Well my SIL was going through one of her myriad of diets where (this time) she cut out meat. They just yelled out " One bun, please!" The entire restaurant burst out laughing.

What do you think of the new dropzone.com format?
oldwomanc6 replied to pchapman's topic in The Bonfire
How do we report/flag a thread or post? We currently have two spam threads in BF. eta: never mind, I found the ghost "report post." -
What do you think of the new dropzone.com format?
oldwomanc6 replied to pchapman's topic in The Bonfire
It looks like everyone's sig line is gone at the moment. I expect they will restore that, soon. But the amount of white is a lot, and the new emojis suck. The old ones were great, and everybody here could virtually read each others' expressions, but I guess if we stick around, we will figure it out in a few years. *shrug* -

New York comedian pokes fun at Casa Grande in video
oldwomanc6 replied to ryoder's topic in The Bonfire
I've been to Coolidge three times. A dozen or so jumps. ( one was a DC-4. Wild double prop-blast for sure! ). Most of the rest were twin Beeches and DC-3s.. Even back in the late '70s, early '80s, this place had a fair amount of mystique. Where is it relative to Casa Grande? I never was able to determine which was which. Where is the "hand?" When I jumped there, it was the old hangers (which I am assuming aren't there anymore?). lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 -
Quick question from an old fart
oldwomanc6 replied to oldwomanc6's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Re: Quick answer from another old fart When I started in early '64 => $5.25 Times, they are a'changin' Jerry Baumchen When I was active(late '70s - nineties), it was buck a thousand feet. At both Elsinore and Perris. I thought out would be about $50 by now. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 -

So sick of the "you are beautiful" message...
oldwomanc6 replied to Nataly's topic in Speakers Corner
Without addressing anyone else's comment, my first thought was why do you consider beauty only physical? The physical aspect is only one, very fleeting aspect of the word. Even the most "beautiful" person in the world, won't be that for very long. Trust me, I know -- not because I was gorgeous, but what "beauty" I had is long gone, but, still most people find me attractive. I don't mean physically, because I truly am growing into my username, originally chosen as joke of sorts, but because they like being around me. Being content is much more attractive than being pretty, and generally "beautiful" people aren't content or happy, and then they are even less happy, because they eventually lose what little they had to hold on to. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 -

Maybe it is a genetic thing, because I don't like real watermelon, but I like JollyRanchers watermelon candy. I'm not trying to be contrary, but this is true. . My kids give me no end of grief for this. Mr.owc6 knows better than to do so. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Coconut? In my teenage years I learned to associate that smell with bikini-clad babes lying on towels at the beach. I love the smell of girls roasting in the sun!

That was my experience, as well. Horrible texture coupled with the fact that I grew up in So. Cal., where they are garden pests, make them very unattractive. Don’t see them as pests, more as readily available free protein. Starve them for a few days and then give the lettuce until you’re ready to cook them. If you’re gentle with the cooking and can make garlic butter they’re as good as any in a restaurant but much, much cheaper. I guess I didn't make it clear enough; the ones I had were in a restaurant, not plucked from the back yard. I get the concept, but they are just yuck! There are some things that are just viscerally revolting; snails are one of such a thing. Oysters, and the smell of coconut are two others for me. There is nothing you can do to change this. Maybe there is a gene that determines this like there is for those who think cilantro tastes like soap? lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9
