Man, sometimes I hate these planes. Yesterday I had to pull and replace an elevator snubber, which is more or less like pulling a baseball bat through the eye of a needle, then putting it back, then securing it with two bolts and cotter keys while working through a space so narrow your fingers can't even fit through it. There are a lot of times ( Read more... )

Snagged some swag at the boardwalk sale today. Got a handmade chessboard for my pops that he may never see because it's nice and the more I look at it the more I like it, got something jade for a certain someone, and snagged some computer programs and music for myself. I love software piracy *_* Adobe Creative Suite 3 was 10 dollars. It has ( Read more... )

Man, I haven't done anything like this since I ripped on Stained like over a year ago, but since I just got a new CD that is apparently the magnum opus of all black metal, I'll be giving it a few listen-throughs and deciding whether or not they live up to the hype, which mostly consisted of Marcus going "LOL THESE GUYS ARE GR8 BUY NOW", only in ( Read more... )

Oh Amazon, you wily and inconstant provider of merchandise! Yes, I would love to order (and to have within one week) my own copy of the 87th remake of Final Fantasy for my PSP, as I've already played through all of the other PSP games I brought with me (save for Armored Core: Formula Front. That game is programmed to be impossible to beat). Sure ( Read more... )

Before coming on this trip, I didn't have a lot of experience working on the KC135 R model stratotanker that I've come to know so well and love so much. Out of tech school, I went to the ISO (isochronal inspections) dock, where I spent 8 months doing the same inspection every week. Didn't learn much ( Read more... )

Alright, so some of you guys may remember me from a brief rant about the fetid, rotting vampires I incorporated into my setting and the Sue who befouled my anti-cliche. That whole situation is still resolving itself, but it's relevant so it bears mention ( Read more... )
