There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch. Nope. Ha, you win! Too bad you won't get to collect. Sorry! Guinness with the nitrogen rocket inside, good choice! Brilliant! Double extra points for spelling corrections. I didn't even look it up on the internet so it was off the top of my head. I guess I'll have extra room in my cooler for hot dogs or something. I'll bring a guiness if you can show up just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egsavage Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Anyone know if any presentations are planned? If so, who brought the projector last year? And the screen? I know it was hard to see during the day. Maybe the presentations can be moved to the evening after dinner when no flying is going on?

Cozy Girrrl Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Who was the most excellent DJ last year? the tunes he was playing were pushing all the right buttons. Jerry, if you get a cabin, can we sleep in your driveway?... potti priveledges? 18 QT roaster... can I sleep in there when you are not using it? Seminars? ah no, I'd rather see people out on the ramp talking about canards. Maybe I should bring some new cookware and do a cooking demonstration? NOT! ...Chrissi Quote CG Products www.CozyGirrrl.com Cozy Mk-IV RG 13B Turbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not a wee bit long KISS. Bunch of canard jockey's, bunch of builders, bunch of future builders; all yacking canards. And canard suppliers too!

Cozy Girrrl Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I'm not against people sharing information with a crowd of people, we do that thing all the time with LoVac demos etc, but I'd not want anyone to feel they were being rude by doing something else like roaming the flightline. If people want to hive off and discuss how to do stuff that would be a good thing. Like talking about strake building, its something to sit down and talk about if you have not done it yet. ...Chrissi Quote CG Products www.CozyGirrrl.com Cozy Mk-IV RG 13B Turbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
