Default The misadventures of aktungbby

Went on a call last night and wound up changing my flat tire, recently installed new a month ago. Fortunately I had cleared the Oakville Grade with no cell-phone service and was back on level ground; so no need to call AAA roadside assist with a technician still awaiting my arrival. So doffing half my gear; half emptying the trunk; ...on went the new donut-tyre-in 10 minutes!;I stopped to inflate the spare that had been sitting 5 years at least...and the evening proceeded as planned! I opted to take the long level roundabout route home (hey I get mileage too) as my spare-tire options worst-case scenario-wise were now zilch. I made it home judiciously maintaining under 50 mph as recommended on a donut-spare. This AM off to the tire shop: Americas' Tire to replace my cheap Korean Sentury Touring tire as it was beyond repair. Apparently in a fit of foresight I no longer recall, I had opted for the warranty...which normally I never do. So a new tire for nothing; a minor warranty reuppance fee and a 'state required' environmental fee....$7.75 total to restore a harmonious friction-coefficient with roadway asphalt for the work-car.

Some holiday clothes I ordered have arrived and it looks like I may need to shed a few pounds in weight terms.

Of course in my case, the 'spare tire' is both ballast...and flotation gear BBY!

Playing over from the previous save before last yet again in SH3 because the bloody last save keeps crashing for no apparent reason

I'm sure us SH3 players must be masochists

Just finished putting this rc plane together, or so I hope. Helicopters are easy enough but this one is a complete mystery. Tail draggers exist for the sole purpose of crashing upon landing, that's my firm belief. Winter looks like sim practice for me.

Reading this and can't believe the original thread made 938 page and this is at 70! Awesome

Me, I am recovering from an operation I had almost 2 mths ago (7 June)reading the forums, watching SH3 YouTube videos and playing the game again. I recently reinstalled it again last week after a 3-4 yr absence so still getting reacquainted with SH3 and slowing adding in mods!

Played an interesting show this afternoon. We have a park downtown with a stage and some other buildings, called the Gallivan Plaza. During the summer they have frequent noontime shows called the "Lunch Bunch". We were under the impression that large crowds of people showed up to eat and enjoy the entertainment. This is probably true on Thursdays, when there are several vendors selling all kinds of food there, but this particular Monday we played for a crowd of maybe six people. There were folks in other parts of the park, and I'm sure we could be heard in the nearby office buildings.

Still, we put on our best performance and had a great time, as did the people who were there. We're scheduled back there on August 28, another Monday. The woman who runs the thing liked us enough that she said she'll write us in for a lot more of them next summer.
