Title: AH Player(s) you would most like to have a beer with
Post by: Gman on June 20, 2013, 01:25:50 PM
I thought that maybe a positive thread about other players would be in order, what with all the negative waves that have been happening this week.  I know it's an O'Club type post, but since the other 2 threads are still going and here, I thought WTH.  Also, I wanted to say that I'm impressed with HTC and Skuzzy for letting the threads go without locking them yet, I think that shows a little different approach than what has had to happen most of the time on the BBS, and I like it, letting the community really spin its wheels instead of throwing it into park right away.

So, my AH person I would most like to meet and have a beer with is Coombz.  He just seems like a cool guy the couple of times I flew Spit5's with him last year, and his posts on the BBS need no introduction.  He's got many different opinions than I do, but that's one of the reasons I think it would be cool to talk over a beer or two.

I would probably say Gsholz would be number two, we've had arguments and agreements over lots of different air combat things, but he's a really passionate guy about the L/W and air combat in general and I think a few drinks over the pond in his country would be a great time.

Last but not least, Mace and Eagl, so I could pick their brains and hear their stories first hand, something that would take more than just a beer or two I'm sure.

All my squadies (at the same time would be grand), Slash (of which I've had this priv before), Karnak, Zacherof (if he's legal), Flench, yourself, Dead Man Flying, Tilt, gyrene81, Bustr(!!!),  ammo, Dragon (I admit - I cheated a bit and pulled most those names from the recent visitor list). I don't remember Jordi's AH name. I'd like to buy Dan a few.

And SD ... I'd really like to buy SD a few, as well.

OH! And deadstik! (sorry)

but if I HAD to pick just one person I think it'd be Heeler. He's the first one that came to mind.

Any Pig, Killrdan, CorkyJr, 999000, Mir, Frodo, The Chawks, and the list could go on with too many to list (all of these mentioned folks I seem to have funny or memorable misadventures with regularity).  There are some great peeps in this community!

Killrdan-Never should have parked your 190 on the docks!  A great team player in scenarios and a pleasure to talk to on the phone.
Corkyjr-Good fella all the way around and another great team player in scenarios.
999000-Flies those bombers where noone else will and is cracking jokes at the same time,  seems like an amiable fellow.
Mir-I never recognize him unless his engine is smoking.  Usually see him because he is neck deep in the same 20 red guys I am buried under.
Frodo-Seems like a stand-up fella, and I always seem to run into him whilst towing multiple enemy cons.  I owe him several beers.
Chawks-Good squad of folks.  Nuff said!

OINK

If you can understand what he's saying WEZEL is alot of fun to be around and very helpful in his unmistakable vox transmissions.  :cheers:

There's a few I'd love to buy a beer and listen to the life stories.... Dolby, Vudu, dragger, The Freebirds (bob, Dred, lulu), and then I've got my squaddies who are few and far between but always helpful when asked. Dime, Cody, TRIPLE....

I know there's alot of talk aobut griefing and other negativity, but I'll say here that I have only experienced one negative situation from BiPolar, and I think that's because he was just giving me a hard time not because he actually disliked Canadians (eh? BiPolar?.... Take off eh!)  :neener:

I must give a shoutout to the AK's they are alot of fun to fly with AND against.  :devil  AKPeppr,, I know you were in a fight in tank town last night and trying to pull the classic F4U up and stall overtop of your enemy trick... problem was I came in from well above to see this nice little gift hanging in the air...   :salute :cheers:

Frodo is the best.  His experience is invaluable in FSO for me.  He's a dedicated team player who has saved my bacon countless times.  More so than any other member of the 11th, he and I have found ourselves in some serious late frame situations where it is just us against the world. Many times I have heard, "Get it home, Stampf, I'll tie them up." while he fights to clear us without ammunition left in the tubes.

A fighting man, nothing else.

Reading responses has me thinking of a few more.  All my squaddies and my CO Perd of course, it'd be great to rent out a place for everyone to play together online for a few days and have some drinks and laughs.

Stampf, another guy I really respect for his well measured BBS responses and the success of putting together such a powerhouse of a squad, and keeping it rolling as well.

Mechanic/Batfink, I'm really interested in archery, especially the British Longbow and its history, also his video of the Spitfires over his house, and his g/f's reaction and such made me think he and her must be a pretty cool couple, and be a blast to be out at the pub with no doubt, talking about the RAF and the Longbow over some Strongbow Ciders.

More to come I'm sure.

Time to organise an informal meet. I live within a mile of the finest pub in Yorkshire. My band is doing a charity gig for Help for Heroes on 3rd Aug at the Cat'i'th Well pub, Wainstalls near Halifax England, if anyone nearby interested. Hog roast and the finest ale you can consume. Ear drums might get some abuse but it's for a good cause.

A couple of years ago I was doing some work that had me traveling all over the US and had the opportunity to meet with several excellent AH players: Sarge201 (doesn't play anymore but miss the guy), SWAPLT, Glider (who took me up in his RV8 and was mega kind after I blew chunks all over the cockpit), and EZRhino.  I live close to ET37 and have had lunch with him a couple of times.  He's an outstanding person and a HUGE wealth of information!  I had a beer with CapMedic while he was passing through town.

Everyone I've met through AH have been class acts.  I've got several other guys that I would like to meet and share a beverage with.  If any of you are ever passing through the Chattanooga, TN area give me a shout!

But honestly I'd have a beer with anyone. Because I like beer and I like AH :)

Gman that would be fun, in my experience archery and alcohol go excellently together. JimmyC, RTholmes and myself have had a few drinks and played with both bows and blunted practice swords. One fun example was when I dared Jimmy to shoot at me with a tip-less arrow across his lawn while I ran holding my beer. Luckily he missed, but only by a whisker.

Yes, I'd like to have a couple with Dolby as well.

Masher/Karaya as well, it'd be a good time to rip around Detroit with him, as another fellow Canuck did recently and had a blast by all accounts.  I'd say a Tigers game or two would be a must as well.

Debrody would be a great time as well, having him show me around his country would be awesome, and the women in that country are absolutely gorgeous as well - wife isn't around so I can get away with that one.

Ink would be an interesting guy as well, it'd be fun to check out the work in the tattoo place and what not, and maybe chop some watermelons in half with the sword after a couple of drinks too, haha.

edit- Mitsu as well, I saw him on Masher's list, and agree 110%.  Mits has always been a very respectful, honorable, helpful, and entertaining person in this game from close to the beginning.  His work with sound packs and Japanese aircraft is somewhat under appreciated nowadays as well IMO.  I haven't been to Japan since the 90's and I'm sure having some Sake and Sushi with him would be worth the hundred hour flight to go back there.

Gixer as well, I've given him a hard time since he first started flying about riding Suzuki, always telling him stuff like he should change his name to CBR or 900RR and such, and he always fired right back in good spirit without getting mad and taking it personal, but seeing it as just some good fun.  Riding the roads in his country with him on a good bike plus stopping every so often to check out the beach goddesses and having a pint would also be worth the flight over.

I agree with Flench, I'd have to throw a pretty good sized party.  But, a few off the top of my head would be Karaya, morfiend, BigRat, Yanksfan and CorkJr.
 
Karaya and I have flown together since a few months after I started playing this game in 2007.  Cool guy with a good taste in music!

Morfiend, BigRat and yanksfan are all of my Training Arena buddies.  I have spent a many of hours in the TA just flying around and talking to these three.  I haven't heard from yanks in a while, but I still pop in and say hello to morfiend and BigRat. 

CorkyJr...need I say more?  Dan is a stand up guy that knows his history.  I remember back a year or so ago I was looking for sources to write a paper on the P-38.  Dan was not only kind enough to share a few ideas, he sent me a book and would not accept any kind of payment other than the notion of doing the same for someone else.

The list of people goes on and on, but I don't think I'd really turn down having a beer with any of y'all!

I don't know about couching it as unfortunate Junky.  In fact, I think that meeting should be something you should be exceptionally proud of.  I doubt there is anyone else in this game that can claim to have met a fellow AH'r in a war zone an entire world away.  Pretty rare and cool thing if you don't mind me saying so.

You're definitely another guy I would have beers with, a guy who came up flying here from being a youngster and growing into a warrior who risked himself for all of us at an age where most people were busy chasing tail or goofing around in life still.

Nope, that meeting at the FOB is anything but unfortunate in my book, but a rare and lucky event in your life, at least IMO, something again to look back on in later years in life and this game and realize that it was a unique and fortunate experience.

A couple of years ago I was doing some work that had me traveling all over the US and had the opportunity to meet with several excellent AH players: Sarge201 (doesn't play anymore but miss the guy), SWAPLT, Glider (who took me up in his RV8 and was mega kind after I blew chunks all over the cockpit), and EZRhino.  I live close to ET37 and have had lunch with him a couple of times.  He's an outstanding person and a HUGE wealth of information!  I had a beer with CapMedic while he was passing through town.

Everyone I've met through AH have been class acts.  I've got several other guys that I would like to meet and share a beverage with.  If any of you are ever passing through the Chattanooga, TN area give me a shout!

I worded it wrong for sure. It was a memorable event for sure, but it was unfortunate we couldn't celebrate it with some beers. Instead we talked shop and smoked cigs in the freezing cold. Selino and I keep in touch on Facebook still.

Right back at ya Batfink!! :cheers: It's ironic that we were just talking about getting together the next time I get to the UK. Hopefully, that will be sometime next year. About 3 years ago I had the pleasure of sharing a few pints with RTHolmes and JimmyC in Oxford. Great guys! About 2 years ago my wife and I took a road trip from New York to the southern US. We stopped in New Orleans for a few days and hooked up with Doom and his lovely wife Sheila for dinner and drinks. Voudoo (now inactive) and his wife were there as well. We had many beers and many laughs. I'm going to nominate Shelia  for sainthood for being able to tolerate Donnie for so many years  :). It was great to meet all four of these guys and to put a face to the voice. :aok

It would also be great to meet Redtop and some of the other 71 RAF "oldtimers" who were active when I joined the squad in '07. Redtop was one heck of a CO!  :salute

Also on my bucket list is to meet all the guys in our squad who I fly with on a daily basis. They are an interesting and diverse group who hail from all parts of the globe.  :salute

And finally, it would be nice to share a pint with all the good guys that I fly with day in and day out. You make this game fun. :salute

One person which I haven't seen mentioned yet, inexplicably, is Widewing.  Not only is he just a cool guy, with a cool online persona, but he's also a writer, something that's a hobby of mine.  More importantly he has vast knowledge about WW2 aircraft and air combat, and discussing those topics while having beers with him would be more akin to being in a very interesting class where the time runs out far too quickly.

The wooden tables have limited space... but putting 2 together and aside from my squad;
Shida, zack, yarbles, Coombzy, Bruv, F77 and AMSoil would most likely be good company to share said beer.

Those two I'd have a beer with, but I don't know if I could resist the urge to break the bottle and use it as a weapon!

For the most part, we're all pretty much a group of guys (and gals) that have a common interest.... no, a passion..... I know a lot or most of you are like me, I stop and look up almost every single time I hear a prop plane overhead, especially if it has an unusual exhaust note or prop noise..... it's in our DNA...

I don't drink anymore but anyone finding themselves in this part of Illinois
I would gladly sit and talk with them.
I have met quite a few players, I attended the Indy Con in 2003 and also
the first Dayton get together. Both were a blast and you could never get
a better host than SHawk.

After a "quick" calculation it seems I've already had a beer or more, once or more often, with at least 51 current or retired AH'ers, 6 of which from other countries... Always been fun!

Whom I'd like to meet over a pint would be Zack1234, because I've never met an Ugandan looking like Woody Allen.

With Schatzi I'd like to share yet another beer can, half and half just for lubricating the tongue hinge  :salute

You guys are making me want a beer right now, and I have $0.50 until I get paid tomorrow. Damn you all, and such.

On a slightly more serious note, I'd probably have a brew with most of you.

Frodo,  I would be honored to have beers with you.  First round(s) on me.

:O That is awesome von! do you grow your own or order bulk leaves already cured? I would love to make my own, but would need somebody to basically tutor me on the method a few times to get it right.

I buy bulk online.

I will probably never malt my own grain or grow my own tobacco, besides, my hops are already taking over my garden.  Gotta draw the line somewhere.   

As for learning, I watched this guy's videos (and some others) over, and over, and over again.  The Cuban method of bunching the filler seems to be the most forgiving with regard to making cigars that won't draw properly but it is the most time consuming of the three methods.

Wow Von Messa.........you sure know how to live.........and how to do what is required to enjoy it without paying someone huge bucks.

I am just a cheap bastige.  Besides, when the zombie apocalypse comes, alcohol and quality tobacco will be luxuries of high-trade value.  In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.  :aok

I will not be surprised anymore by anything VonMessa makes.  Tires for his car starting from rubber trees grown in his back yard?  Sure.  Making his own refrigerator using a home-built Sterling engine?  Why not?

Years from now, we can tell VonMessa stories akin to Bill Brasky stories.

I don't know about all that, but I DID re-purpose a dorm room fridge into a fermentation chamber under my basement stairs.  :cheers:

Dear Dedalos and Bighorn,

It is time for your returns.  Shade or no shade, I shall gladly accept my combo-beatdown preparing you both for the latest era pile its.  It is moral imperative that you both return.  Please PM your names and I shall send you my shade.  Do it...you know you wanna...there are also rumors in the wind that JUGgler has been playing...vague shadows of 99 knot jugs (other than LilMak) on the deck slaying all those around it, never answering 200 and slipping away into AH late-evening obscurity. 

It is time.

Your cigars look very uniform in shape and size. Do you use a press or just put in the extra effort when rolling them into the binder?

It all depends on how good they look before I put the wrapper on them.   :devil

I have two molds I made from some oak planks I had laying around.  I used a 1/2" ball end mill for one (~ 32 ring ga.) and a 7/8" ball mill on the other (~50 ring ga.)

It is a total matter of feel when you do the bunching on where to put the small filler in to fill in the voids.  If you get the bunching right, rolling the bunch in the binder is much easier.  If you are not going for a specific ring gauge (or using a mold), it is also easier to screw up the draw in my experience (since I have not acquired that "feel" for the size I need by rolling dozens every day for years on end.)  With a mold, if you don't use enough binder, you get a loose cigar with soft spots and voids and if you use too much, you get a cigar that doesn't draw.  I find the "Cuban" method of bunching (entubado) to yield the best results, but it is certainly the most time-consuming.  Done properly, however, you can wind up with a cigar that smokes as well as any Cuban, even though the taste may not be exactly the same (since we can't get tobacco or cigars from Cuba).  Only half of the excellence of a Cuban cigar is in the tobacco, the other half is in the construction.  A cigar with mediocre taste can be compensated for if it smokes well, in my opinion.  

The beauty of trying to roll your own is that, if you screw it up, you can unroll it and start all over.  :aok

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion."

Although I do not live in the woods, this philosophy has appealed to me since the first time I read Walden when I was about 12.  We all have an expiration date, why waste the time we have?
