Guys, thanks so much for the kind words!  It's been a rough couple of days here on my end as my grandfather just passed away late last night, so stuff like this brings a welcome smile.

ebgb:  I believe I have some film of a couple of our fights the other night.  I'd be happy to send them to you if you give me your e-mail address so you can see what I was doing at my end.  The only caveat is that the fights occurred at dusk, so it's pretty hard to see anything.

Slapshot:  I don't have films of the P-38 vs. Spit V fights from the other night, but I do have a couple of fights between you, me, and mars01 all in Spits before mars blasts me HO on the deck.  :)  I can send that along to you or post it here if someone is willing to host.

Drex:  If suck had a proper name, it would be "Drex."  The fact that you're unable to grasp this means, well, that you suck.

Sorry to hear it, Levi.

Fair skies and tailwinds to him.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Sorry to hear that Todd. My condolences to you all.
Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.
I'm not perfect, but I am closer to it than you are.

Deeply moved to hear of your loss.  Grandparents are so special.

May he "...dance the skies on laughter-silvered wings..."

Thanks, guys.  I really do appreciate it.  My grandfather was the kind of guy who seemed to live on sheer will power alone; sick for 28 years, he outlived the doctors who told him he had a year to live back in 1976.  He'd beaten the odds so many times over the years that, when he told me at his 75th birthday party that he planned on living for another 75 years, you almost had to believe it.  He was going to will it to happen somehow.

Naturally, we're all human, and it was not to be.  But his was a life well-lived and well-loved.  Certainly it was a life to celebrate rather than mourn, one to admire, remember, and emulate.  And so I shall.

Okay, now back on topic.  :)  Fellas, I'll zip up those films and send them to you in e-mail after I write this message.  The film I'm sending to ebgb is actually a pretty long and interesting one.  Would anyone like to host it?  I think many would find it useful.

Thanks!

Since this thread started on razzing Levi. I think I will brighten up the mood for a bit. It seems like a good time to let this out.

My good wing buddy (Tracerx) and his wife have had a new BABY!! I don't know the name, but I do know that it was a Girl, 8lbs. 13oz,  21 3/4" long.  Both mom and baby at home and doing fine now.

I didn't get Tracers permission to announce this on the BB, so I hope he won't be to upset.

Anyway, seemed like a good time to let this out, I know he wouldn't do it. He's a good modest guy.

SLED, pass along my congratulations to TracerX and his family.  My wife and I are expecting our second child in October, so I certainly know the joy (and sleeplessness) that comes with welcoming a wee one into the world.
