LOL! OK, let me try one that's less impentrable: what kind of stuff do you build? I'm working on Harry Truaman's Air Force One, a DC-6 named Independence. Minicraft in 1/144.

As a child, I was perhaps the worst model builder in the entire State of Colorado. Glue all over and I was completely uninterested in reading the instructions. I just started gluing pieces together that looked like they belonged there. I don't think I ever successfully finished a model. (I'm pretty confident I would have been megadosed on ritalin had I grown up in the 90's. One look at my models and it would have been straight to the shrink.)
To my knowledge, I have not improved one bit as a scale model builder in my golden years.
BTW, the screen name refers to my business, which is computer modeling. To build good models of that type, you have to do you best to break them. Now, however, I declare that ModelBreaker is a double reference and includes my childhood skill and renown as a scale modeler.

This is why I keep my distance from bears of all types.

Polar Bear walks into a bar and says, “Give me a ...

Bartender says, “Why the big paws?”

Q: How does a polar bear stop a VCR?
A: It just presses the "paws" button.

It wasn’t an army of snowshoe hares.

she's a Maine bird now out of?
my son-in-law flew P-3's - now he's pilot instructor at Corpus
When he was stationed at BNAB 4-5 years ago, he charted the daily flight north to fly over my house - they still use it, but I don't go out waving like a mad old granny any more.

It was fun for the dude too as long as he kept the SUV between him and the bear. ;-)
