Thank you for this! My husband is from the town where that first paper is published. It totally sounds like that area; bunch of libs.
That’s brilliant! Thanks.
Thanks for the LOL
Very funny, Neil. You put horse face Leno to shame.
These people vote ya know.
The one about the Supreme Court just shows the supreme [ pun intended ] hubris of the court.
These are great. Thanks!
Do you have any idea how much it would be worth if you found one? lol
What a great idea! A website - civilwarplanes.org - dedicated to reviving the lost and forgotten history of Civil War Airplanes.
It's obvious by the complete lack of details in history books on this subject, that both governments did a first rate job at keeping their greatest military technology secrets under wraps, and out of the hands of enemy spies. (Why, it's probably just a lucky accident of someone getting drunk and spilling the beans, that we ever even heard of the Monitor & Merrimac ironclad's duel, or about the existence of Confederate U-boats 50 years before WWI!)
But this doesn't necessarily mean that the job of unearthing tech details, paint colors, decals, etc for the Union and Confederate heavier-than-air craft must be left in the hands of mediums, channelers and similar types of professionals.
Original artwork should be solicited for this project from photoshoppers, as well as creative ideas from engineers for technological details that reflect mid 1860s state-of-the-art science.
For instance, in the matter of propulsion, I was imagining perhaps paddle wheels (riverboat-style) hanging from the wings. Naturally, to fix the problem inherent in *fixed* paddle wheel blades whereby the return rotation of each blade would move against the direction of travel, they might have instead used *hinged* paddle blades that got in a good strong "dig" against the air when they were moving towards the plane's rear, but then shifted on their hinges on the return rotation so that they wouldn't be paddling any air in the opposite direction. (Sorry if the ultra high tech jargon is confusing).
I would LOVE to see a website dedicated to this!
Pinging my humor ping list - freepmail me if you want on or off this list.
(This is usually a low volume ping, as I don’t search for humor threads, but I do ping when I find something really funny.)
ha!
