I didn't think that the human body's muscles had the ability to hold a head erect with such dense matter between the ears and above the jaw.

I still have my Technics SL-1500 Turntable, Stanton 881S Cartridge, Sure V15 MK IV Cartridge, and a few Grado Cartridges, although I prefer the Grace Ruby F-9 cartridge the most. 1.5 grams tracking force.

OBTW - "My" little jet (above) was one of the first GPS test-bed aircraft.
It was used to test GPS controlled ordinance delivery during GPS development.
Yes <shock, shock> GPS was a military program. Col Parkinson, however, knew of its wider potential.
The actual GPS equipment was loaded into the centerline gas tank, along with 60# of dry ice for cooling.
GPS wouldn't work back then if it got too hot (110+ in El Centro during the Summer).
Unlike for the pilot and the 'guy in back' who had to work without cooling until airborne.

Thanks for that info. I knew GPS was military developed, but nice to see the vehicle test beds.
I recall that during Desert Storm 1 the satellites were providing gps locations within 5 meters to the troops, and in reality to everyone else until they changed the transmitting settings.

I purchased a "refurbished" HP8015 printer to replace my trusty HP8630 when it died and couldn't be repaired. Serves me well, and I print about 50 pages per day on that one.
Sometimes the refurbished/renewed are better than the NIB.

Can't catch a sailfish or a tuna or go snorkling from a Mooney
Again - all a matter of perspective - and what you wanna see or do.


So true, but the last time I had gone fishing in the ocean, I was "praying to Roark" for 5 hours. Not a fun time. I do love to sail, though.

Depends on your perspective AND how fast you wanna get there


Difficult to pilot a boat over the land, but a private plane, however can go over the land.
Sailboat ~7 kts, Mooney ~175 kts.

While I am not sure where you are, New York hasn’t gone anywhere. With an itinerary for a week, you can have plenty of photos and experiences.


I'm on the "left coast" and the wife will not travel with me to visit the city of our birth.

I have a Garmin GPS that I used from 2003 to 2010, and it still works.
All my cars have built in GPS, and the better ones don't take me too far from my known route.
My plane has a Garmin 530W that is used all the time. The biggest problem is the yearly cost.
