That old gal is beautiful! What's the other rig in the background: - The "bin" for spare parts?!

Nice post, ColdWarrior, thank you! Please don't ask me why, but wasn't the USAF retiring the Warthog? Anyway, reading somewhere the other day that Estonia (the whole nation, not just their armed forces), took something like 25% (!!) casualties during WWII. Not sure if that's accurate (haven't...

The idea (or something like it) makes some sense. Might be why it's not so: - Makes too much sense.

The rig looks clean, real nice. You've been working overtime!

Only (6) weeks of ALL that, and smooth running?! - Kudos, that is a tall order and you "done good"! I can't get my act together to save my life (but I did bump my head once when I was a kid, that's my excuse anyway). Well done, Rutjes! An echo here to cucvrus, like he says: Good Luck!!

So many great items in barns everywhere -not doing anything. There's a topic someday for a thread of its own.

You fixed it up real fine, nice clean work! What's with all the valves lying around, do you maybe do utility work?

Sweet! Were you watching for it to come up, or did you just catch it?

He might have planned it. That General Hood he is sharp: - "Sure. Sure. Park right there out front!" Saved the expense for all that digging. Brilliant!!

Everybody leaves TOWN when I play... Wow. That's a beaut! Is that a Gibson?!!

Is he driving a shiny new car?!!

Sorry about the mishap, General Hood, sounds like it was painful for everybody. The gods get their laughs at the expense of all of us down here... Too bad it didn't dig up a rare dinosaur bone, or a vein of gold or something.

Oh, Man. Don't remind me...
