[Monkey Face]

You have no idea how close you really came to posting only to Bob!

I'm almost on my way to bed.

[rottndog]

I'm rather sleepy myself, but I have much work to do.

[Monkey Face]

I don't know how well I'll sleep. I'm still trying to make sure my truck is unmolested at night. I really need an alarm system.

[Monkey Face]

Ta!

We had a Ford Maverick stolen from our house once...a FORD MAVERICK!!!!!

My mom was so paranoid she slept in the station wagon a couple of nights after. We finally got her back in the house after we convinced her that no one in their right mind would steal a FORD MAVERICK and a Ford station wagon.

BTW, we got the Maverick back, minus the battery and the 8 track tape player--the bastards took our only 8 track tapes--the Beatles Abbey Road and Liberace's Live In Carnegie Hall--I was so disappointed!!!!

[King Prout]

nah... getting that turret geometry to come out, THAT was a relief.

[rottndog]

You an early riser or a late one?

[rottndog]

What are you using to model that with?

[sionnsar]

I've heard blonde jokes, accountant jokes, and attorney jokes, but I'm still trying to find a joke about a blonde tax attorney.

Ain't nothing funny about blonde tax attorneys -- you just approach them in fear, trembling, awe and wonder.

*\;-)

[sionnsar]

So...do we get the rest of the joke? Or will you just leave us hanging with "Two tax collectors walk into and assay office...?"
(Are my blonde roots showing?)

So are my strawberry blond (no 'e') roots...

Particularly cannot figure out the conjunction "and" in this context but what do I know? I'm an engineer... (do they "assay [the] office? what's it worth?)

[sionnsar]

You never know what will be stolen. Ca. 1980 I had a '72 Honda 600 (as in 600 cc engine) Coupe stolen one night from alongside a very recent Accord. Said Coupe had only 170k miles, still a young vehicle.

Never recovered...

[Tax-chick]

We're looking forward to getting friendly with Wednesday, once she gets over her case of nerves. The former owner said she was very affectionate; we just wait until she decides she likes us!

AutoCAD2000

so far, all objects are in solids, no surfaces.
modelling irregular complex curved solids forms in ACAD2K is tricky, as that app does not have an "extrude between defining contours" function.

this model is "to scale" - meaning it is 10m long in the file.

[NicknamedBob]

I liked the former model better. Among other things, you could see that the ducted-fan engines were steerable. (The word is dirigible, but it has "fallen" out of fashion.)

Let me know when you want my design for a tank.

[rottndog]

I use Solid Works. It actually creates entities as surfaces, and then fills them in. I'm still not that great at complex surfaces yet--Every different kind of surface function has different rules about how to use it. Of course I don't use it for surfaces that much, so it follows that I'm not good at it yet.

[rottndog]

...1980 I had a '72 Honda 600 (as in 600 cc engine)...

I ride a Honda Motorcycle with a bigger engine than that...

[rottndog]

I used to live in a tank...

we called it a submarine though...

[NicknamedBob]

I changed jokes in the middle of the stream. Tulip said she wanted a ... well, here it is.

“... a joke about a blonde tax attorney.”


A successful businessman has decided that he needs a full-time tax attorney. He places an ad in the paper, and one of the first to answer the ad is a stunning blonde.

“Are you a tax attorney?”

“I certainly am. Here are my credentials. She handed him a thick sheaf of dossiers, letters of recommendation, and academic awards. Impressed by the certification, and unwilling to let the attractive woman get away from him, he decided to hire her on the spot.

“That’s fine, but I‘ll have to go by the kennel.”

“Excuse me, the kennel? Why?”

“Well, I’ll need my seeing-eye dog, of course.”

“Seeing-eye dog? Wait a minute. You’re blonde, not blind. You don’t need a seeing-eye dog.”

She stared at him in utter astonishment. “Why, of course I do! Who’s going to read all those papers to me if I don’t have him?”

[NicknamedBob]

"... we called it a submarine though..."

I know all about submarines. I saw "Down Periscope."

[rottndog]

I know all about submarines. I saw "Down Periscope."

Then, I knight thee fellow Bubblehead!

A word of caution--be very careful whilst submerged in the Realm of the Golden Dragon-there seems to be some weirdness in the space-time continuum.
