Gen, I think you're wasting your time right now.

I'll apologize to you too. I shouldn't have posted it.  

I think your definition of "curse" is way off, though. I didn't curse anyone. I did use the word for a person of subnormal intelligence.

You can look all you like... or not. You won't find much at all. I don't really recall but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't use the "I" word very much. Even in that thread.

i thought they came back - and released all these new kits - like the b-25 under discussion, along with some other stuff, like the tbf and sbd's...

i have the b-25b/c kit, unbuilt in my stash.. so, toad, if your endeavors on ebay aren't successful...  and don't go nutso after just the one you've bid on already... there's always more...

Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.

Wow!

Thanks, Shane. I'll keep that in mind.

For those interested, the 345th is having their reunion in Crystal City (DC area) the first week of September.

My dad's 84, 85 in Dec, and he's only been to one reunion I think.

If he's up for it, I'm going to take him to this one. My brother and sister both live in Burke, so it'll be an easy thing.

We're going to try for that.

I'd LOVE to have a Quitch model for his B-day on Dec 30 though. Is that even close to do-able Nuke?

Toad,

Somewhere, only God knows where to be honest, I have an unbuilt Monogram B-25 kit, 1/48 scale, only opened to look at the parts.
It is the eight gun nose version, even has the Apache decals for the vertical stabilizer/rudder sections.  The "Quitch" nose art I cannot help with.  Had a line on one of those out of production resin printers, but they are hard to find and expensive to buy and maintain.

If, and I stress IF I can find it, the kit is yours.  I bought it over 10 years ago along with a Monogram B-24 Liberator in the same scale.  Due to being in nursing school at the time, I never got around to even starting on it, and over the years I have not found the time to get back into the hobby and dedicate the time and energy to doing these models "right".

Gimme a few days, if you will, to find everything.  If I can find it, I will contact you here on the BBS and we can trade info so I can send it to you.

Thanks to you too, Eddie! Man, I am overwhelmed here. I am going to move the modeling to a new thread.

Sorry for littering this one; I plead warbirds/father your honor.

Some great film of 345th B25C/Ds last night on Military Channel.  Lots of low level strafer film.  Thought of your Dad when I saw it.  Some of the 25s had the white fuselage band too. Wonder if Dad was in the film :)

O.K. Toad. Let byflowns be bygones. But I wasn't fishing for a compliment. And actually it's "ubernormal intelligence".  :D

My vote goes to:

Toad
Nilsen
Saintaw
Midnight Target
Sandman
Seagoon
Karnak
Maverick
LePaul
MiniD
Tronsky
Vulcan

The only think that worry me much is that many of the US posters (and eventually moderators) are unaware of the internationality of the BBS, and can fall in the trap to moderate the percieved "amerihaters" just for expressing different opinions on politics, history, religion.
I mean, different of what are the US based moral and cultural values.

Urm hasn't this thread been hijacked as a model thread? I thought that was against all the rules ;) :lol

Forwhat its worth I'm not going to go over old ground anymore. Whats done is done. Jackal you have a problem with me. ( thats fine though remember this is only a BBs and we don'tactualy know one another at all realy! ) But to save igniting endless flame fests or constant trading of insults why not just leave it if you don't like me and quit responding?

Honestly I don't understand this troll thing ( it seems a fine line between what is a troll and an attempt to join an already heated discussion. This is my first time using a BBs so  how about some slack and maybe a bit of guidance as to why what I've said or done in here is soooo bad that I keep getting blocked! and maybe a little less self righteousness on the part of some and a little more even handedness and objectivity.

Your honor, I rest my case.
