That was the last time we were in Mexico.

Going back there next month but to a different hotel.

Did the other hotel guests ever figure out how that water in the punch bowl appeared?

Yeah, I figured out a better way to defeat you. :yep:

Even as I type this, Eich is busy trying to set the perfect scenery layers and weather conditions in Flight Sim 2004 so he can take screen shots. :yeah:

If that doesn't work, I have a plan to re-introduce the joys of landing on aircraft carrier scenery. :D It only takes about 100 hours of seat time to get consistent and, even then, I can always say, "Yeah, but you didn't catch the 3 wire" or "It doesn't really get fun until you set a total overcast 50 feet above the waves plus a 20 knot cross wind". :hmmm:

Just a reminder, folks. The show's getting ready to start (and I've got clear skies :smug: ).

Where the heck is Neal?
I hope he didn't freak out when his antlers started to sprout. :hmmm:
Neal, don't sweat it. They'll drop off before sunset.
Still, its Texas so don't forget to wear a blaze orange vest if you're going outside. :yep:

Meanwhile, clear skies are still holding over Iowa but we're a little too far west by a couple of hundred miles so we'll only get a partial eclipse. :doh:

Already seeing the start here in Ohio.
Shouldn't someone be sacrificing a Virgin or something?

Aktungbby 04-08-24 02:19 PM

Me: contemplating the heavens at High Noon; just to get this thread back on topic!:yeah: https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/pic...ictureid=13459
 
...and my sagging jowls and wattles could us a tyan to boot!:shucks:

Jeff-Groves 04-08-24 02:25 PM

I watched it with my Red and Blue 3D glasses.
It was like seeing it in real life.
:har:

nuthin' good goes outta style https://static.life.com/wp-content/u...2_00129471.jpg I wore them in 1960, age 9, to see the ghosts in GHOST

It just can't be as much fun watching this at home without a Ghost Viewer as it would have been back in the day. When you went to the theatre, you were given a piece of plastic with two strips of colored plastic. When the ghosts appear, you can look through the red strip and see them (eek!) Or if you were just hopelessly terrified to the point where your underwear was not safe. you could look through the blue plastic and see the scene without that nasty apparitions (since the ghosts were shown in blue in an otherwise black & white film. Or was it the other way around? Sounds kind of like a William Castle epic, you may well think and indeed it was. I wonder if William Castle would be more highly regarded as a filmmaker if he hadn't gone in for the goofy gimmicks? Maybe. He did mostly lightweight drive-in horror flicks but some (like SARDONICUS) were pretty good in their own right.

In Iowa, it got colder and wind started to blow.
Just like the eclipse. :nope:

Curse you, Ohio. :O:

Only thing around here is Vegans.
:hmmm:

I did sacrifice a Starling with a .25 grain pellet. That seems to be working so far.

So do I. :Kaleun_Wink:
If SOH allows us to upload directly to the new forum in August, I have a few nifty ones I'll post. :D

Eichhörnchen 04-08-24 03:41 PM

^ I'd like to achieve one showing a "Tsetse" Mozzie attacking a U-Boat - I've got plans for a painting of this some day :up:
