Re: More oppression on other forums

I had not read the follow-on posts over on TRF after the initial posts about your ban, or timeout. I love the reaction, as if you were describing a rocket build. Does anyone over there have a sense of humor, or an understanding/appreciation for sarcasm?

Re: Createx Airbrush Colors

I appreciate all the info. I found my box of Createx paints -- wow, I've got a bunch! I have so many I better figure out how to use them!

I could use some home project downtime to get back to a rocketry project or two.

Re: Upgrading the Renegade

Hey Ted, Took a break from The Walking Dead, and decided to do some forum browsing. (Almost as addicting of a show as 24. I started early May as I recall and I'm already watching Season 5!) I have an old two-stage Renegade kit, and put it back in the "build it later" box when I saw it had ...

Re: Old Launch Photos

These photos take me back a few years. I ran elementary school rocket programs for about 5 years when my girls were that age. They are 33 and 30, so it started in the early 90s. Unfortunately, it was also before everyone carried a camera with them, in the form of a cell phone. Sadly, I don't think I...

Re: It's not only big brother watching....

Bernie, I'd only worry about emails like the one you got from eBay, when they get to the point of having WAY too much information ... like informing you that a drone deployed a droid to look in your basement window, notices that your rocket bench is a little empty, and therefore, you ought to really...

Re: 10 Most Anticipated Science Fiction Movies of 2016

I wasn't aware that there were "spin-off" Star Wars movies in the works, if the Rogue 1 movie can be described as a spinoff. I'm game. We go to such few movies on the big screen that a Star Trek or Star Wars will always get my money. I think Passengers looks interesting. I really like Jenn...

Re: And so it begins.....

My one remaining hope is that if a Trump is elected, we may have some good things as a result of his certain ability to make changes. The big unknown is how much bad comes along with the potential good. With Hillary, I pretty much feel it's Obama 3.0, and that has me scared. Even if she moderates, w...

Re: Taking the Big Bertha to new lengths

I've never seen crazing in primer coats? Did you have incredibly bad humidity that day? The few times I've had crazing is when I've used different brands of paint and had bad reactions between the two. The only other thought might be some kind of contamination, possibly even transferred by your bare...

Re: "I'm finally going to get some balls.....

I've never been pro-Trump, but I've always been anti-Hillary. I've made a commitment to do anything I can to prevent her getting elected. I do empathize with the Never Trump mindset. The crap he spewed before Inidiana primary about Rafael Cruz, when he knew he would win, really repulsed me and almos...
