Not trying to sound insulting, but as someone studying museology as a minor subject, someone who has worked in a museum and someone who intends to one day become a professional on the field, I'm just confused by how wrong that all sounded.
Ah, now I understand. Well, here is the problem. The museum is at an Air Force Base, the main part is real airplanes, not models. Of course the real planes are limited in number, and are all American.
The workers are mostly retired mechanics. They can fix an F-16 blindfolded, but most of them have no clue what a S.P.A.D. 13 or a Fairey Fulmar was. Their expertise is limited to the real planes, and the model cases were neglected for a long time. So they needed a couple of guys who love to study the history.
I thought it was funny that Hill AFB was named for Major Ployer P. Hill, who died flying the Boeing 299, the prototype B-17, but the only model they had in the case labelled "Planes Major Hill Flew" was the Revell B-17F. They had a "professional" modelbuilder who was constructing Academy's new B-17C model tell them that the prototype just "couldn't be done". So I built one for them (actually I was already working on it) in time for the Base's 50th anniversary celebration in June 1990. So now the in the entrance to the indoor part of the museum is this (sorry for the poor quality of the pictures, but they were taken with a cheap camera twenty-one years ago).

Their expertise is limited to the real planes, and the model cases were neglected for a long time. So they needed a couple of guys who love to study the history.
And that's exactly why you have catalogue references. They must have once known what each model was, at least when they accepted them in their collections. Hence they (usually) would have given each model a reference number in catalogue and painted it in the object, for example under the wing, a bit like you did.
The references make it possible for even a moron like me to check from the catalogue what each thing is and what we know about it, if I don't know already. They would also make it possible for me to actually work in the museum much easier. If some old hand told me: "bring me that model of Fairey Fulmar", I might look like this: :doh:
Whereas if he said: "Bring me that model AFM 173_4", I could do it on my first day at the job.
Don't mind me, I just love museum catalogues. :DL
(sorry for the poor quality of the pictures, but they were taken with a cheap camera twenty-one years ago).
But they still show the beautiful model well enough, so what more can be asked? Nice shots.

You need:
2 eggs.
1 – 2 dl of sugar.
3 dl of flour.
2 dl of cocoa powder.
1 dl of cooking oil.
How to:
1: Mix sugar with the eggs in a bowl.
2: Mix flour and cocoa powder first with each other and then with the eggs and sugar in the bowl.
3: Pour the cooking oil into the bowl and mix again. The result should be pretty sticky.
4: Empty the bowl into a dish and cook in 175 degrees oven for approximately 35 minutes.
Instead of cocoa powder you can also use other ingredients to make different pies. I have so far successfully tested the recipe with bananas, apples, berries and jam.

'twas my thought as well. If the car's as old as it is, and still running the original alternator, I'd lay money on that being the problem.

Quite possibly....how about a twelve month guarantee with a new battery purchase? :hmmm:
I had to replace the battery a month ago, short circuit ... is the most plausible explanation ... then it's so much electricity, so yesterday's car was easier to deal with, but yesterday's service was good, nothing wrong at all, :DL

Hope the doc prescribes you a massage by 2 fine, lightly clad redheads - though it's more likely the masseuse is a russian ex-weightlifter! :O:
Probably you'll only get an injection to relax the muscles.
If you do a lot of heavy lifting you should also check for special back training, your intervertrebal disks will thank you.
Use the sick leave to regenerate, I'll do the same after my comparible hellish work week. I have some days off untill Monday - as soon as I am out of this madhouse today I will turn off the phone, submerge into my cave and do a video and game marathon. :know:

Luckily it's not the backbone. I sprained a muscle on my right side of the back. Hurts like hell but should be better within days. I just need to rest.

Can someone please do me a favor? Repeat after me: "Hottentot, you are an idiot."
I never feed my dog bones. Never. Except this once. I got a bone as a gift from my mother. And not just any old bone, but a pig's leg bone, bought from a petshop, packed and all. And I still said no, I'm not going to feed my dog bones and that's it. But then again: why would they sell them if they were dangerous, right? Right? Yeah, I guess...
Well if I should have learned anything at work, it is that you don't bloody [expletive, expletive, expletive] guess when it comes to an animal's health [expletive, expletive, expletive]!!
Long story short, a small piece got stuck in his intestines and it was veterinary time for us. The worst is over, he will get better. Doesn't change the fact that I was a bloody idiot, putting my idiotic emotions before my freaking best friend's well being.

Could be just bad luck. You know, when you do for the first time something you don't ever do, because you know it carries risks.
But if I had to offer an explanation, I'd simply say: a retriever. A retriever that loves to eat and isn't too picky on how it eats. Just bites off a huge chunk and swallows it, goes down the throat but doesn't come out of the rear. The pieces he has now been popping out of his rear end are about the size of a finger's tip. Have that turn somewhere the wrong way and it might get stuck.
What got my attention was that he started whining after doing his stuff in the bushes, and the end product was bloody. And sure enough, some of the pieces have also been sharp. They have most likely made small wounds in his intestines, but nothing that wouldn't heal with time.

In retrospect, the vet visit may not have been necessary: the bone parts were stuck, but they were not (fortunately for the dog and my wallet) removed by surgical means. They are slowly coming out naturally, or at least that's what we hope at the moment. A dog can have things like this happen without the owner even noticing it, because it is not always dangerous.
But when my dog is pooping blood, I'm not going to wait and see if it's going away on it's own. I know where the my own abilities end, and that's a 100% sure sign.
In my layman's knowledge I only heard of chicken bones being dangerous because of splintering, didn't know that pig bones are also dangerous.
Basically any bone can be dangerous, but it depends. Most bones come out without trouble, like I explained above. Boiled chicken bones are bad, because they are prone for splintering, but just as they don't necessarily splinter and cause trouble, likewise any bone can splinter and be a nasty problem. That's why I don't like taking risks with them.
Edit: And it of course also depends on what your dog can digest, that's highly individual thing. Some of the dogs I have met could probably have eaten steel and pooped chains without any problems whatsoever.

Speaking with a more serious tone (and I hope my last comment wasn't a poor attempt at humor on a serious issue), there is truth in there. I have experienced it as well, with both genders.
There is only so much you can do. Be a friend, try to make them get professional help, whatever, it's all in vain if the person him/herself isn't going to do anything about it. I know that, for example, with depressed people you can't just expect them to "snap out of it", but if you insist on "saving" people and take it too seriously when no results are achieved, you'll just break yourself too. Then who is going to help you?

I'm a dog lover (steady, McBee, steady boy!) but it's selective, I don't like little yappy dogs. At all.

I don't like little yappy dogs.
Size can't be helped, but yappiness (is that even a word?) is a state of mind. It's a sign of something. I could say what "something" in 99% of cases is, but children might be reading this forum too.
And as for size: I didn't like small dogs in the past. Then I got employed for a short time in taking care of them. The dog with most Attitude, capital A, I have ever met was a Chihuahua. That fellow's ego was the size of a horse. If it had ever met my current mixed breed retriever (size difference being about 30kg), it would probably have beaten him to a small, bloody pulp and continued as long as the retriever was begging for mercy. Seriously, that rat was scary. :o
And I say that with voice filled with love. I miss that miniature Terminator. We had lots of fun together once we befriended.

While you are not the first one to say that, it's actually not what I'm referring to. My own little poodle is doing well at the moment, the danger is thwarted and the lesson is learned.
I've just participated in training several dogs for the last few days and while I met many wonderful people, I met only wonderful dogs. Dogs that their owners said were bad. That's what hurt the most. Anyone with half an eye for dogs could instantly tell on which side the leash the problem was. And it's much more difficult to get people to listen to you than it is to get dogs do it.

Who is this man that his death is worth mentioning. He's not family, we were not aquainted nor I ever did anything for him. But he did something for me.
He was a musician, a folk artist. And played the harmonica like the devil himself (the european harmonica, the one you don't play with your mouth). His songs were not a part of Slovenia, they were Slovenia. His Cebelar (Beekeeper) is an unofficial anthem of this country (along with Golica and Na Roblek from Avsenik). He is a part of our culture as Betsy Ross is for the US or Queen Victoria is for the UK.
As if a part of the entire nation died with him

One big advantage is that you don't suffer from jet lag, as time zone changes don't affect your clock.
I can note that the thread has been "stagnant" almost a week .... and I thought that H-B aka Tony would keep it hot, apparently a misunderstanding that certainly will not be repeated...:hmmm:

Son are you there?
Yes, some women like different details, like your dialect, but there are plenty of nice girls...:up:

Thats it, I'm building a nuclear reactor at home.
My father bought 15 cubic metres of beech wood for the winter and after three weeks of (after work) sawing, splitting and pilling them up in the shed I'm finnaly finished with the task.
Next year nuclear power, no more splinters and back pains :stare:

Ah yes, I have a similar (but smaller in quantity) task ahead of me today, that and fighting with the lawnmower.
Here cometh the winter (at some point)....

Only you sarferners can boast to having a summer :DL
lawn mowing: my dad
wood sawing, splinting, piling (in every direction:DL):my dad
all heavy duties: my dad
all light duties: my mom
keeping them well-organized: my humble person :know:
@Betonov: coming back to the linguistic topic, i'm just wondering, does "kurwa/kurva" mean the same as in PL?

If the 49ers manage to beat the so called dream team this week I will be elated.
This is a u-boat favorite forum, which means you all play for the underdog. Play for my 49ers today against the dog killer Vick and the savage Philadelphia team.
I need your help, I haven't seen a superbowl since we blew the chargers out in 95. I'M SO SICK OF WINNING 6 GAMES!!!!
You might get used to you in time...:DL

Many beautiful money has come to my wallet, thanks to football in England, and brackets, can be mentioned that I have also, on request, made systems to tobacco business ... where it's corporate games :smug: Actually, I think City will be difficult this year...:|\\

The title will possibly end up in the city of Manchester but if that is the case it can and will only be Manchester City because Manchester United are not located in the city of Manchester :know:

So where are they? :know:
Both Arsenal AND Chelski lost?
Oh, I'll be doing some gloating tomorrow... :haha: Given Chelskis lacklustre performance against United the other week I'm not entirely surprised to be honest.
City vs United will be a good match to watch, I may be a United man but I reckon City have a good chance, United are struggling in places.
One thing I've always wondered though, if they took footballers wages down by about 75%, who would still be playing football? :hmmm: Thought for the day :03:

Football has different meaning to some of us...Especially on Sundays!:03:
Go ahead and insult our Rugby abomination us Yanks made up, but we love it.
Yanks only watch soccer (football) during the world cup when we make a good show of ourselves but still lose, until then we have pigskin.
BTW speaking of yanks, my New york Yankees are making another run at a world series, You know the Yankees my Euro friends!
So where are they? :know: Here is something fishy in the air, :hmmm:

Hi Jamie...picture this:
My 18 year old daughter has her first boyfriend who lives in my home town with his family but was born in Peckham and as such is a Chelsea supporter (southern dialect and all that).
His mothers brother (his uncle) is the Newcastle United club dentist and an official club sponsor of not only Newcastle United but also the skunks that reside on the banks of the Wear :o
It is not unusual to see my daughter waltzing around the place of abode wearing official Chelsea club issue sportswear whilst insisting she is a Toon follower like her father.
I need a drink :doh:

No sir you didn't. Europeans tend to make fun of our version of football and was getting ready for a good ol' ribbing from my friends across the Atlantic. I can take a teasing, I been tempered by more agressive forums:D
