Just wanted to apologize for my "Serious Question" thread. I honestly did not intend for it to be a troll or anything like it. Sorry for starting a thread that, though entertaining at some points, developed into a flame-fest about spits and arguments about percentages.
Heheh, Murphy's Law has just been following me around lately, I guess this was just another case.

More like "Mando's Law". Any thread involving Mando will devolve into a Spitwhine in 5 posts or less. :)
-
it was a valid question and a darn good point... its just that some amazinhunks are determined to make a anti-spit posts out of everything (i give it 2 days before this one becomes like that)

Man, these last two weeks have just been a nightmare for me. Long story that really doesn't need to be mentioned, suffice to say it has destroyed my sleep paterns. That thread was just another example (not that the thread was causing me worry, but it just makes me feel kind of weird about starting a thread that is approaching 200 posts in three days and includes a large amount of flames and such).
Oh well, at least the con is coming up soon and the school year is almost over.

no worries math. I shoulda known better than to try and participate in that discussion. At times, it was pretty civil, but then it degraded as usual. :(

people will flame anything for anyreason...its there life...most people dream of a 200 post thread...people seem to think just because they like a plane its the best one and everyone should fly it...oops should shutup now...apology accepted
(feels weird to be a student accepting a apology from a teacher)

Math,
Wouldn't even think twice about it buddy. Initial posts and comments were interesting though soon stopped reading once the flames started.
Always good to see you around in your F6F as I'm sure you enjoy that ride as much as I enjoy my Spit 5,9,14, :-)

"I can name that whine in 4 posts, Bill."
"I can name it in 3."
"I can name that whine in 2 posts."
"NAME THAT WHINE"
.... hmmm, uhh, that would be, "the nikla IX is a UFO" in C minor, Bill.
ding ding ding ding, you win!!! Its an oldy, but still one of our favorites here at the show.

Sorry Rip, it was supposed to be just a three day thing that kind of has turned into a 4+ month thing. Maybe we can come back to the knits. :)

I apologize to you for participating in that thread. I always try to post in a logical fashion, but sometimes forget when to let things go.

Thats the "Pitbull" in ya Kieren! Go with man, go with it! ;)

Mathman, you meant well but you need to understand that "No good deed goes unpunished.."
I suggest that you turn away from the Darkside and join the 15% of us that play this game for fun. That means only about 15% of what you read on this board should even be considered, let alone acted on.
It will make your Aces High experience so much more enjoyable.

The thing that irks me is explosion of "Perk this!" posts we have seen lately. Perk, don't perk, I don't care, but selectively perking based on a plane bias is out as far as I'm concerned.
-
I thought it was a good constructive post that became tardified.

Yeah, I apologize for speaking my mind in that thread too. I should have left it at my 1st post and never looked back. You know what they say about hindsight.

Maybe he'da stuck around if you would have quit putting his panties on your head and running around the barracks nekkid, shouting "time to get silly!" at the top of your lungs.

LOL, my first jump I landed in one of only two trees in the LZ. I had to run around the outside of the barracks with my hands under my arms ala Gertrude and Heathcliffe yelling "I'm a toejam bird" that evening. I shoulda listened to the JM about the consequences of landing in those trees :p

Thanks Rude, that helped... until i realized that some TARD signed me up to teach summer school.
Oh, wait, nm, that TARD is me.
Good things about summer school for me:
1) done at 12 pm
2) get paid for two months I normally wouldn't
3) ends before the con
4) get paid for two months I normally wouldn't
5) easy going classes I will be teaching
6) get paid for two months I normally wouldn't
7) relaxed administration
8) oh yeah, I also get paid for two months I normally wouldn't
Bad things about summer school:
1) the kids
2) having to actually work
3) getting up at 7 to get to work by 8
4) I only really get one month off (August)

Math- I had no idea you were a teacher. Now the handle makes even more sense. Sheesh, I remember taking Geometry during summer school in High School. Worse yet, in college I took Calc. II during summer school. I can't remember squat about Calc 2. sinh, cosh- what the heck was all that about???
