Happy New Year

Well race fans, we for the most part have survived 2020.   What a crazy year for all of us.   I know it has been a while since I have made a post and one of my resolutions for this year was to get back at it.   So here I am.

At this point not really even sure where to start since has been so long.  So I guess I will just start from today.

I managed to get off my ass and walk to work.   Being that it was 29 degrees out, I still made it.   I need to get back to my daily walking outdoors.   I have been doing the treadmill, but in all honesty, it is really not a work-out, but I do get steps in.

Not a lot of people out this morning, which is always nice.

I didn't walk home this evening as Candy was out and she called and asked if I wanted a ride home and of course I said yes.   Will try to get the round trip in tomorrow.  Even so, I did get my steps in today.

I sat down to watch the news this evening and that lasted about 5 minutes.  I can't stand to hear about Trump, what a fucking asshole, crook, thief, and a little cry baby he is.  If you follow him you are just as stupid. (comments welcome).

Let's see, I have spent most of this year building balsa airplanes.   

When and if we ever all return to the office I will need to find a new place to hang them all.  Currently, I have nine hanging in my office.  Starting to look a little crowded.  My last project was a Curtis Sparrowhawk and I am about ready to start another.  I cleaned up the dining room table this evening so I can get ready for my next one.


Here are a couple pictures of the Sparrowhawk.   This was a fun little build and took me about 3 weeks off/on to get it completed.   It was a bit challenging with the wings, but overall looks pretty good.  All of mine are rubber band powered.  Maybe someday I will get out and fly them, or at least attempt to fly them.   My experience is that they are good for at least one attempt and once they hit the ground they are done.

I was trying out some new music for the walk today.  New to me, but has been out for a while.   I was watching a show the other day and they had music from a group called Cyprus Hill.   It is rap music, not one of my favorites but I made it through.   Here is one of the songs that I liked.



If you want to sing along here are the lyrics.

Livin' on phat pockets on flat wit that gat
Rollin' around nine deuce Cadillac
Still got my homies to watch my back
And they'll smoke ya ass if ya wanna come chat
That's why some pigs and the kids come sweatin' they follow
A hollow-point shell's hard ta swallow
Why wallow when ya come ta roll on I put that clip and dust
Bring ya ass on, kickin' dust on ya head as the gat busts
My grip surrounded I'm about ta get rushed I brushed wit death
How many shells stuffed in my closet?
When tha shit goes down ya better be ready (when tha shit goes down)
When tha shit goes down ya better be ready (when tha shit goes down)
When tha shit goes down ya better be ready (when tha shit goes down)
When tha shit goes down ya better be ready (ya better be ready)
I told tha boyz get tha sawed off glock and tha rest of tha gats
As I strapped on tha bullet-proof vest
Boom! I think I got one to tha chest
Hot damn I didn't want to kill a man shit
I still stand tall with tha hill clan y'all better stand back
Niggas bout ta fall I'm comin' out blastin' like Yosemite
Sam get tha cheese an tha bread for tha ham
When tha shit goes down ya better be ready (when tha shit goes down)
When tha shit goes down ya better be ready (when tha shit goes down)
When tha shit goes down ya better be ready (when tha shit goes down)
When tha shit goes down ya better be ready (ya better be ready)
