I sees many elected Captains starrin' inta the hold 'o a founderin' ship. Theys plannin' ta refloat the hull by borin' 700 billion holes in the bottom ta let the water out. Manacles an a vacation ta Devils Island they be deservin' fore any more damage be done. Tea needs be spilt, an quickly.

/\ None yet, too far away. < Attempting to throw together a pirate kareoke booth fer the Holbrook Medieval Fantasy Festival in Sept. \/ Pass the question.

The 4 events be happinin' at once. There be one body performin' on each event at the same time. Yes it is distractin' but thats how its always been. Did ya be hearin' the POTC theme at one point? At least one wee lass had some class

Weird is reading who won what, on the 'puter, 30 minutes before Bob Costas says yer watchin' it live on the telly.

Raises another glass to the Japanese gymnast who performed an impromptu double twisting flop after losing his left grip on the Rings. Dayum dude, that hurt 12,000 miles away

Gymnastics, judo, grecco roman wrasslin', and weight liftin'. BMX racin' needs a good look too. Could be the best thing since demoliton derby

Heare be ta the Ladies Olympic sabre team.

Ahh, not lookin' to redefine "surface", but to expose the difference between flat and level. The meanings be blurred 'cause the laypersons practical applications do not require that degree of precision. (Thank goodness )

A perfectly level surface is not flat. A perfectly flat surface is only level at one point.

What (if any) be the legal ramifications fer doin' so?

Stuffed animal?

/\ I'd be off the grid an bugged out to somewheres obscure. Tis me humble opinion that if ya ain't workin' fer someone else, an ye ain't workin' fer yerself (fer fun or profit) Then ye may as well be a corpse. Retirement holds no sparkle fer ald Morgan. < Preppin' a small booth fer the Holbrook Medieval Fantasy Faire. \/ Good question-\/

/\ Run fer public office. Couldn't be worse than the vermin we gots now an at least I can find me arse wi' both hands. >Found a beater guitar at goodwill. Bringin' out the pull saw an glue pot \/ Pass the Q.

Ya might be thinkin' 'o the old "Pike" amusement park. Port's 'o Call or Pier Point fer us fossils, has been where its at since the fifties.

/\ <Buggin' out fer an old tyme music jam on the other side 'o Tucson. \/ Ya ain't afeerd 'o water is ye? Pass the question-

Hah, I thought Bill Macy had come to the dark side

When the government steps out of mandating to the engineers how to increase mileage, we'll see some progress. Flip side of the coin- Why are there so many vehicles out there getting 50% of their rated mileage when a simple tune up and $2 worth of vacuum line will save them hundreds in gas? Why are so many lured to expensive water4gas scams? Common sense and mechanical ability have been breed out of society.

I think Jules Verne started the whole steampunk thing. Disney just glamorized it back in '54. Vulcania Submarine

I bought a new Ford F-150 and returned to the dealer the next day because I couldn’t get the radio to work. The salesman explained that the radio was voice activated. "Nelson", the salesman said to the radio. The radio replied, "Ricky or Willie?" Willie, he continued and On the Road Again came from the speakers. Then he said, "Ray Charles", and in an instant, Georgia On My Mind replaced Willie Nelson. I drove away happy, and for the next few days, every time I’d say, "Beethoven", I’d get beautiful classical music, and if I said, "Beatles", ‘I’d get one of their awesome songs. Yesterday, a van full of illegals ran a red light and nearly creamed my new truck, but I swerved in time to avoid them. I yelled, "A$$ Holes". Immediately, the Iranian National Anthem began to play, sung by Jane Fonda and Barbara Streisand, backed up by Michael Moore and The Dixie Chicks, with John Kerry on guitar, Al Gore on drums, Dan Rather on Harmonica, Nancy Pelosi on tambourine, Harry Reid on spoons, Bill Clinton on sax and Ted Kennedy on Scotch. Dang, I LOVE this truck.

The wishbone shaped intersection be where Livingstone Drive splits off NE from Ocean Blvd. Its East of downtown and a little west of where 2nd street divys up Belmont Shore. Ocean Blvd be yer target. Commin' from downtown LB stay on Ocean. Iffins ya overshoot ya can only go as far as the yacht club an jetty. Turn around an backtrack about 2 miles. Ya should be able ta smell a pirate by then I lived there fer 19 years, this part ain't changed much.

Thou me infermation is a few year old there ain't much that can move down there. The "free" parkin lot belongs to the Safeway. They don't be likin' it when their customers can't park there. To the southwest of that lot is a pay lot. Its kinda smallish too. It had ta fit between the two piers before the old one got tore down(ancient history). The largest lot is to the east of the pool an runs clear down to Granada Ave. Its had parkin' meters fer years. I posted a map of the area on last years thread. Can't have changed too much. Found it- http://terraserver-usa.com/image.aspx?T=4&...=984&Y=9339&W=1

Free parkin' in LB? Ol' Hob be shiverin' fer sure.

Buildin' yer own is a dream fer most of us. These guys did somthin' about it-35' of lust

Here be one fer airplane racin' fans- Fer airplane geeks only Kinda wonderin' how it would have faired against Hughes' H-1 racer.

North on the 5, then south on the LB freeway. The south end of the LB fwy piddles out into tourist trap, curves around, and intersects Ocean Blvd. Turn right onto Ocean (headin' east). As yer travilin' on Ocean there be a large Romanish lookin' building, a few miles out, on the beach. That be the Long Beach Olympic Pool. Park an follow the mayhem. Ya could leave the 5 an thread yer way up PCH turnin' onta 2nd street after ye pass the LB /SB line-- Iffin yer crazy
