I never get tired of sayin "WANGO TANGO"  to Tango.    Been doing that since 2002 on Rook channel.    At first he was like "WTF?", then I told about the Nuge tune and he's been laughing ever since!   :rock

Speaking of Wango Tango, where you been hidin Tango?   :devil

My dear Karaya - I have to go into my aerogeek man-cave to recover when I run across a thread like this one that totally dismantles my understanding of reality portrayed by physics.  You see I must confess it takes a long time for me to recover from a mental breakdown when someone throws down the gauntlet and proves through pilot stories that my faith in Newton, Bernoulli, Prandtl, and Navier-Stokes is totally misplaced and nothing more than a delusional illusion.   :rolleyes:

the Nuge

Ah, Theodore Nugent . . . I really like that guy!  Besides Wango Tango (for Tango), there is Great White Buffalo about, I think, the Brewster. :)

I went 88 mph and touched a high tension line that was spiking at 1.21 gigawatts after a lightning strike, and was transformed back to April 02, 2011.



I was then groped by my Mom and learned how to play rock n roll from the bestest rock and roll player of the time.

Absolutely classic thread.

How are you Gaston, keeping well, working on any new material?

I think he's been kept around here for the comedy relief he provides.

Gaston has shown up on the Banana board a few times. There was the perfect thread for him there to get involved in until it was locked.

It would have been very entertaining with him, Crumpp and the thread starting, JG14Josf, going at it.
