@Malikas_Friend I keep mine turned off. The battery lasts forever if you do that. I checked my voicemail for the first time in over a month yesterday, and then turned it off again.

It's a good thing to have in case you need it, but I seldom need it.

Nostalgia, more intense than it was when the word 'nostalgia' was invented.

When things change quickly, the stark differences that can be seen within a single lifetime become more extreme.

LOL - funny because it's true.

'Neil Paper Models' on YouTube has done a lot of excellent video tutorials on how to build Fiddler's Green favorites.

He's trying to build his channel, so pop in and throw down a 'like' for him.

Old customer, Dennis, bought our full jet collection for his son for 40 bucks. Here's the heart-warming story in a nutshell. Print this F-15 model and share it with yer young 'uns.

@AdamCrigler According to "Felix the Cat", it's a bag of tricks.

It's for whenever he gets in a fix.

[Scott Fyn @chip_fyn]

@xAviation I would spin it as a successful test.

The F-117 Nighthawk uses radar-absorbing materials (RAM) on the canopy windows.

It's not exactly 'blocking'. It's more like 'not allowing it to reflect'.

In a paper model, the radar waves are completely or partially absorbed or reflected by the paper.

Thanks for that detailed breakdown.

Even if you allow for the possibility that some beings may have lived for thousands of years, those lifetimes you listed all fit squarely into feasible (normal human) lifespans if they were talking about months and not years.

Perhaps if you factor in a belief in reincarnation, or dynasties that survive that long, then it may be possible to develop a belief system that embraces millennium long lifetimes. You would have to first redefine what a 'life' is.

I don't completely rule out the possibility that life forms could have existed (or still exist) who can survive for thousands of years, but I seriously doubt Noah was one of them. He was no God.

Ironically enough the DNA of an octopus is so foreign to anything else on Earth, that they speculate that the species could have come from somewhere other than Earth. 🧐🤔🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙

I'm going to try the tournament system.

The closest thing I've ever done is to put them all in water and use the ones with the most buoyancy.

Normally, I scoot them over to one side and hack off the empty cells with a scissors.

Takes less space in the fridge, and I can always know how many eggs are left without opening the carton.

This also helps me with rotating the stock because the hacked up carton is always the oldest.

If you don't have laying hens, all of this is very hard to understand.

@RealAirPower1 As a child at the time, I was burdened with too much knowledge of geopolitics.

There are pros and cons to everything.

In 'Cub Scouts' I recall our motto was "Be Prepared".
