I suspect he may still be down there looking for (or at) those cookies. Great line though. I'm going to get some mileage out of that one.
Poodle Girl is so much fun to be around (but don't pound on the windows of his enclosure or try to feed him without heavy gloves or a taser).
Were you there, Ken, when Fred and I had to wrestle him to the ground before he could get his shirt off? Come to think of it, I guess if I wore a shirt that ugly... well, never mind.
He was actually pretty mild today. Must be back on his meds..

Adam for some reason seems to imply I've ripped the entire bottom out of the hull and Poodle Girl is apparently having difficulty understanding the concept of drain holes. It may have something to do in either case because the hull is still upside down and, well... Well, they are among my group of friends and that may explain everything.
That's not to say however, I'm ignoring your generous "offer" of motor mounts. Since we're months away from getting a decent Rolls Merlin ready for the Blue Blaster, we've been using her motor mounts to help supplement the clamps, duct tape and other materials to form the aluminum we're (finally) putting on the sponsons.
That's my story anyway and I'm sticking to it.

Huh? Oh you must have been listening to the conversation between Adam and Poodle Girl. I sent PG some snapshots of my recent activities at the Hydroplane museum, with emphasis on a couple of small lazy jobs I did the other day. Mostly making some small drain holes in the sponsons and adding a few stiffeners to the forward battens of same.

He must have. As he was leaving I heard a lot of people let out a collective sigh, followed shortly by some applause. For a second I thought they were still handing out awards but I noticed all eyes were on that blue ZO6 with the unfinished wheels heading down 85th.
