Here's something sort of random:
Someone at work asked me to check into World War II models. Preferably something already assembled/not needing assembly and under $75. They do some online shopping, but wanted to know if I could turn up a decent website.
Yes, it is a Christmas present for their son.

He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

That's what I get for posting before I go to sleep after a day longer than twelve hours awake.
Okay, models of airplanes.

Nice, pre-assembled models of WW2 airplanes are a bit harder to find if you're looking for a plastic model.
Best to look for die cast models like this instead:
http://yellowairplane.com/Models_Fighte ... ecast.html
Note though, that most die-casts are just 1/72, so they're fairly small.
Aside from these guys, I believe Dragon and Tamiya also have die-cast preassembled stuff (I've seen die-cast WW2 tanks from Dragon, and commercial airliners from Tamiya). You might want to check them out too.

Thanks, I'll pass the website and info along.

It's a girl. She's due March 14. I saw her feet, her profile, her tummy, her heart, and even her brain. Sonograms are fucking amazing.
And, like her father, she doesn't like her picture taken. She kept putting her arms and hands in front of the sonogram thingy.
I am NOT a sentimental guy, but that was the cutest thing I've seen.
Game On,

whoohoo! baby girls are awesome. Just remember that sometime during her life, a Louisville slugger is necessary. You can justify it as a potential birthday gift for the kid at some point in the future. She'll forget about it and you get to keep an eye out for her.
I don't have my bat yet but I will at some point in the next couple of years.

Today I had an interview for Panera, and after about ten minutes, I was offered a job.
This is awesome, I've been on unemployment for damn near two years, always feeling like shit because I got so little (I was fortunate to not have major bills). Now I just need to keep this job.

Dawwww, that's so sweet FBMF. Reminds me of when my sisters were infants. Congratulations, baby's are wonderful, if taxing.
That is really fucking awesome Prak, congratulations and good luck.

Congrats to you, too, Prak. That's a really big deal!!
My son makes me laugh. Maybe he'll make you laugh, too.

In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.
Thanks all.
There's a new location going up near my house, so they're hiring to fill that up. So, conceivably, Count, if you moved to the hellhole of California, ie, Sacramento, sure.

They hired me as an associate, so I'll be on register and making sandwiches and all that. Hopefully I'll move to baker soon, that's what I really want to do.CatharzGodfoot wrote:Prak, are you making sandwiches or baking?

It finally happened. I now have to officially watch my language. Yesterday there was a minor emergency that made me yelp an "Oh, Shit!" My son spent the next ten minutes galloping and jumping around the house repeating "Shit, shit, shit, shit..."
I laughed so hard I cried. The question now is: What do I want my child saying in public?

How about shit or fuck?
Those are good.
You old codgers need to realize that your big bad words stopped being a big deal a long time ago. Long enough ago that when I was eight shit wasn't a big deal, I have no idea what contempt current eight year olds have for people who think shit is a really bad word.

Good luck. I have a friend who bakes for Panera. He likes the job, but it makes him tough to hang out with.Prak_Anima wrote:They hired me as an associate, so I'll be on register and making sandwiches and all that.

The law in its majestic equality forbids the rich as well as the poor from stealing bread, begging and sleeping under bridges.
