Good morning... I´m having a smiley - coffee and my model of the Milenium Falcon to repair... Crashed this morning down from the shelf... I think that should happen more often... Gives me excuses to rebuild the thing over and over again...

I thought you guys invented that Fahrenheit stuff, E. 33 C today in Christian units. Only been 31 for the last few weeks.

I once built the Empire State building, but I left it in front of an elctric fire and it turned into the Leaning Tower of Pisa smiley - sadface

Kes

My scale models didn't need the benefit of an electric fire to turn out "different" ... All they needed was me and a tube of glue .... My version of a sea hawk jet with anhedral wings was quite something ....

You could have retaliated by screwing a couple of picture hooks in the top of them so they would 'fly' along a couple of hundred feet of fishing line.

And then when you were fifteen or so and had learnt how to make some interesting explosives in chemistry, you fill them up with chlorate weedkiller, sugar, and firing caps, and try potting them with an air rifle on the way down.

smiley - erm Not that I'm speaking from personal experience of course smiley - winkeye

(ROFLMAO!!!)

*Looks confusedly down at her socks, then at the back of Kes's wrist. Waves 'hi' to Seth and hands him her own personal hand-held battery operated fan. Looks at Pandora.*

What's wrong with my socks? Can't have a Valentine's Day sock hop without socks.

Actually, farenheit sounds like a germanic word. Well, doesn't it?

I never made models. Girls weren't encouraged to do it. I did do paper dolls. Interestingly enough I hated regular dolls. I'd rather climb trees, uncover ant eggs and watch the ants scramble to save them, identify birds, steal rides on the neighbor's horses, play explorers in the woods, go fishing, and play hide and seek after dark. Oh, and collect lightening bugs in a jar with holes punched into the lid and grass provided.
