Get a Flip!
BTW, I saw a Giant UCan EX-fricken-SPLODE a couple of weeks ago. Dude did a 3D snap at a fairly high speed. I heard the POP and thought there was a mid air. Sounded like someone popped a paper sack. Confetti fell for what seemed like 5 minutes.

I think I would like to challenge this statement.
Now it was mostly my fault - BUT I DIDN'T PULL THE TRIGGER.
Getting ready to go flying last Sunday, I will sometimes carry stuff to the car the night before. Since I can;'t open the tail gate w/o opening the garage door I choose to lean my Patty Wagstaff wings against my wife's car-
well do i need to go on?

She never goes anywhere early on Sunday am. - except this one. Since the wings are leaning against the passenger side of her car - well she doesn't see them and backs out -the wings fall down and she proceeds to run over the wings!! I didn't get mad - didn't point the finger - she did that all on her own; with me gently saying "oh it really wasn't your fault sweetie."

Guys - we've been married a long time and this event has proven the BEST Reason / excuse for getting a new plane. - well shy of winning the lottery!

LOL! You finally "get over" this loss and move on- and then some rogue poster digs up your corpse and Frankenstines' the memories! That's funny. (not your loss but the innocent regurgitation of your bad memories)
Duh internet is a powerful thing. Careful what ya post.

Maybe now, it can again, RIP??
