Back from fishing?

Quite right DT, I've had a relative (brother of my great grandfather) who went into resistance here in Belgium, derailing trains and such. But early on already he was caught by the germans and ended up in a prison camp. He stayed there for a while, making a friend with very pronounced communist ideas. Together they decided to organise their escape, and since Russia was closer to the camp (or easier to get to, I don't know too much details) + influence from the friend they both decided to flee to the russians. And they succeeded too. Once arrived, they got 'caught' by the soviets. And even though they couldn't speak a single word russian, their ability to read a map and their experience in enemy territory made that both of them got promoted officer, each commanding a handful of men. They didn't have much choice, go fight for them or end up in a gulag. So they spent the largest amount of time, almost 3 years, in the war at the russian front. My uncle never said anything about his experiences there, I think it would've been too painful for him. All we know is he lost his friend there, who was searching the german bodies for valuables and got shot while at it by a wounded german. At the end of the war both allied armies, americans/british/canadians... met in Berlin, but had an agreement that both would send eventual deserters back to their army. My uncle deserted to the americans anyway. The american officer in charge of him phoned his relatives to check his story, but there they all said my uncle was dead (since they hadn't heard of him in several years). My uncle heard that, and had to shout to the phone for his family to recognise his voice. A bit less luck and he would have had to stay in communist Russia for the rest of his life...

You got your new graphics Sweper?

Damn, you'll be soon impossible for me too shoot down anymore at this rate..

Thanksgiving, that's the US' turkey day eh? Bon appetit!

It's not completely exact your point 2, rather, in Mac you have a program that emulates windows. So instead of choosing which OS you want to use, you run Windows on top of Mac. I don't really know, but I guess this can have some effect on performance.

And a special present on a special day for a special man: Happy Birthday! BTW what did Helen get you?

Hey Ovy, I think there is only one manufacturer of TrackIr, which is Naturalpoint.. As for the different versions, I'd wouldn't know since I don't have it either. But hey, nothing stops santa from passing by for me too!

I get this... "The topic or board you are looking for appears to be either missing or off limits to you. " Does this mean I'm not allowed to go to Duxford?

I had to laugh with this one

Incredible guitarman! You are skilled!

And it's not been 5 minutes that I have seen it flying over me (in Brussels). It's a mazing how fast it goes!

Indeed, quite an accomplishment for an 11 year old! I can be glad if I even finish one like he does. I have done some models too some years ago I think, but I got them all messed up I remember.. Here's what I bought as recently as this afternoon: Hasegawa 1/48 Stuka B-2 It's my first serious attempt in several years, will post some pictures of it when it's done. And nice job on the Beau Rattler, I see you managed not having glue on the glass. I remember it was always that part where I had to be extra careful.

Wow, scandinavians seem to be the most beautiful.. Glad to know you Jedi, you mind bringing some girlfriends/nieces of yours to Duxford?

I hope it's not too late... Happy Birthday both of you, I hope you had a great time!

You told him the barrel was on fire?

Now that's really nice of you, good luck with it!
