You already lost it when you used "insular" earlier today.

I hope my self-effacing Hick-Schtick isn't totally shattered.

At least I know how to spell 'numb.'

(Edit) My Merrican ire is rising... NEVER FORGET 9-11 OR J6. HOORAH!

(Edit2) look at the gal @~ 2:36 in the dark blue scrubs. She looks a lot like a gal I used to date, I used to call her Reebok, because she always wore Reeboks. She worked at Hospital City. She also helped my mother take care of my handicapped sister for a long time after we went our own ways. I don't think I've had much contact since my mother died about ten years ago.

Well, as several people here are already aware, I'm not really an engineer.

I'm the king of Spain.

Maybe we should establish diplomatic relations then. I'm the dictator of Howland Island and the FBO of the Howland Island International Airport.

Amelia Earhart almost landed here a couple of years ago, but got diverted to Vanuatu Nikumaroro Island, Kiribati or something.

It's tourist season. Bring the family and come see our fabulous day beacon.

Keep your peckers in your pants fellas. I already claimed the joint (and the Palmyra Atoll which also has an international airport) under the Guano Islands Act.

IT'S ALL MINE!

(Edit) I let Jarvis and Baker Island go, they don't have airports, and I think Midway is contaminated with radiation or chemicals or something, but it does have a sweet airport. I don't want to be greedy.

That gal at 2:36 looks like the stray that my wife and I took in for while. Married last year, but still comes to visit us every few weeks. She works in health care now. Cute as a button in scrubs with stethoscope around her neck and exam gloves hanging out of her pockets.

An aerodynamic issue with having the entire engine spin with the prop was that it created enormous gyroscopic forces, making it very difficult to turn in one direction but super easy to turn the other. It was something for pilots to adapt to for WW 1 fighter aircraft.

I never thought about that much. My buddy Jess had a Cessna 310? twin, I suppose the props (rotating mass) counter rotated to mitigate that effect, but his prop weren't probably 500 lbs. each. Turn too sharp, and one wing separates to the left and the other one cuts through the cockpit.

Cessna made a pusher/puller twin-boom recon aircraft (don't remember the designation) during the Vietnam war. I wonder how those props spin?

I hate it when Ecuadorians make me think too much (says the guy who's living in what was supposed to be a storage unit) :P

You're OK, Pin.

Skymaster

That was a cool aircraft. (Next to the P-38 and P-51) The F-5 and T-38 trainer were the best lookin' jets, bar none.

(Edit) One of those vids makes it look like the props counter-rotate, but it could be a shutter speed effect.

Texting Granny irrevocably changed my destiny on 26Nov2013.

Did Granny have her own cell phone in 2013?

Ten years ago I was driving trucks cross country. We didn't have much in the way of cell phones, but some drivers used them. ;)

Yeah, she was texting some earth-shattering news to one of her squirts when she killed me.

My first (Half) day in the hospital exhausted the limits of her insurance.

The MDs told my wife I wasn't going to survive, and if I did, I'd be a braindead invalid.

She filed for divorce the next day. I got clipped for $2 million+.

My shitbag lawyer wanted to go after granny's crap $10k house in the Meadow Ghetto in New Haven after five years.

It would've cost me more to tear it down than what it was worth. I never saw the gal, I told Blackburn, "End this now!" after five years or so.

I feel bad about what that gal went through. Fucking accidents happen.

Janice whatshername is probably dead by now, and it's my fucking shitbag lawyer's fault.

FWIW, I got $20,000 dollars. I give more away than that every year.

There is a way to do it, but I need statement from my primary physician that I am capable of handling my own finances. Then Legal Aid in Joplin will send a lawyer to file on her.

Right now I am waiting for other shoe to drop on retired Conservator's Breach of Fiduciary Duty for opening a CD for $10,000 and short time later a medical bill came in. There was not enough in my account to pay it. She was forced to close CD early and take the penalty.

I am going to get back all the $30 monthly fees she took from me. Then she will be stuck paying court costs on top of it. ;)

I got hit, I went down, I'm pretty sure I took off a part of a portable cement mixer with my head.

The guy who hit me made the mistake of looking to see if I was dead. I wasn't. I blew off his face with a low recoil, frangible .38 round.

I was down, he was down. He was in worse shape. Ugly stuff. Lotta blood.
