Random Thoughts IV

I want to hear Woo play the bagpipes. I love Scottishy music.

I like the teal power tool set. Very pretty. Probably a bit much for right now, but still pretty.

NW, I'm thinking this weekend is a good time to get some stuff on sale!

CG, I think you may be better off using the money you would put towards a drill to pay someone to install your blinds with the "I like these because they are pretty" attitude.

200 miles driving kids in three days. And that is just practice--games can be further away.

My flight leaves in 3min but there isn't a plane at my gate.

Then I don't think your plane was leaving in three minutes.

Im'ma say you prolly should've ignored it....

I deserved it but couldn't bring myself to actually punch myself in the throat. It would hurt.

Shoulda put the jimlad, I was just playing along with his joke.

Oh yeah, it's a panty dropper all right.

I don't know if I'd go quite THAT far...but I'm like CG. I love the pipes (if they're played well). I'd enjoy hearing you play sometime.

Are you at the right gate?

Dang, Woo, you getting all the ladies up herr in the RTT with them bagpipes of yours!

I'm in my office right now, wearing just my underwear and returning emails.

WDSM is headed out right now to get a set and a bagpipe playing DVD.

Yeah, that might be just a little bit of an exaggeration. And hopefully I'll be in a parade or two this fall (though that helps cg more than you).

and I actually think bagpipes, along with a few other instruments like violin, have one of the largest ranges between good and bad. They are amazing when played well, but there isn't much worse if they're really out of tune.

now if it only worked on girls in the law school (no offense KC or CG, but you're both married and besides, I'm not sure cows or orangutans are my type).

and on a slightly related note: being in a pipe band at Wooster made me kind of forget how unusual the bagpipes are.

For the mechanically minded that might find it interesting. Here is a basic drawing of how Boeing is designing the folding wings on the new 777X.

you'd think so, but it was just pretty normal at Wooster, so it wasn't super special. (and I probably didn't use them to the full advantage haha)

PapaLew had to come over to see what had me laughing so hard...I took him back through the conversation & he lost it when he got to this post!

those overall things that students wear at big 10 schools look kind of stupid.

For what purpose? What's the market for this jet? Carrier landings? Passenger transport?

Anyone else sick of Draft kings and fan duel commercials?

I'm sick of the damn Miller Lite commercial that's on every commercial break during Brewers games

It allows the plane to use standard jetway equipment, unlike the Airbus A-380 which is too tall.
