Literally the middle of winter here so lorikeets don't fly this far into the city to forage, all the trees they like are bare branched right now :)

And thanks for the well-wishes! :cheese: :cheese:

...no problem, over the years I've posted many a rant here myself from work related, to transit woes, to inconsiderate drivers and cyclists.
Am currently fuming over some news I just got today (not related to my personal situation or G3) that I cannot discuss here for TOS sake.
I need a lot of beer but have no funds. Time to go for a walk to simmer down.
I hope you get beer funds soon... :down: :down:
...thank you.
Would especially be nice for the upcoming heatwave we will be experiencing. At least I will be able to sit in an air conditioned pub.

...yeah, Stevens Point WI to Milwaukee in an average time of around 2 hrs 30 min (155 miles)
Fortunately a good part of my route was rarely patrolled. The only area I had to watch it was a stretch of Hwy 41 outside of Fon Du Lac (30 mi NW of Milwaukee). Very bad speed trap back then mainly because of the U of Wisconsin Oshkosh just to the north.
Oh, yeah! I knew it was fairly recently that I saw them.

Thanks for the render.
Whenever I think of the pink flamingo lawn ornament I remember many of the places I've seen them or heard about them. My favorite story is about a couple who bought into an uppity gated community but had creative ideas about lawn decoration. The story as I remember it was that they put out a couple of pink flamingos in the hedge in front of their home. They were promptly told by the lawn police that that was not permitted because the rules said all lawns should look alike. The story quickly proceeded to the level where the chastised home owners bided their time while they bought a great many pink flamingos and discretely during the night "donated" a small flock of pink flamingos to every house in the neighborhood. I don't remember how the story turned out but I can probably guess that the flamingos migrated to some place other than the front yards.
It can probably be found through Google. I believe the community was the Disney related development called "Celebration" south of Orlando.
Edited to add:
Well, I was right. It was Googleable but I was wrong on many points about the story. However, in the "Editorial Reviews" under "James Sullivan" in this book review there is a story about the flamingos in Celebration.

Unless that was mostly not highway, that isn't very impressive...it works out to about 60mph. In the early 70s I had a 1966 Chrysler Newport...383 with positraction rear end. That thing was a tank. And yet it could really haul. Once I went from Fall River, MA to Foxboro (I think it was), through Providence, R.I....100mph all the way on the highway...Rte. I195 to I95 and some other...I didn't know my way, I was helping a friend and had to be back by a certain time for something. You couldn't even tell I was going that fast, except for the spots on the windshield. I asked, "What are those spots?" and a friend said, "Bugs you're squashing!" Eeeewwww. First and last time I ever went 100. What was I thinking? I was (and still am) surprised that I wasn't stopped by a R.I. Statey...they were and still are notorious for pulling over cars with out of state plates.

I think I have one. I'll go look for it.
ETA: Never mind. The Valandar set, Lawn Ornaments, that KK gave is the one I have. Thanks, KK, for saving me from having to search for it.

..,true, the average speed as about 62 MPH but that's just an average. The 2 hrs 30 min time is door to door from my flat by the College to my home in Milwaukee.
For one, about 2/3 of the route was on 2 lane State and US highways Google maps today may make it look like it was pretty much all 4 lane divided highway/freeway, but that is three and a half decades removed from when I last lived there. US 10 between Stevens Point and Appleton was only a two lane highway at the time with a few passing lanes now and then. Only between Oshkosh and Menomenee Falls (about 50 miles) was I on a 4 lane divided highway (US Hwy 41) which at the time was not up to interstate standards like it is today, as it had crossover intersections (lots of bad wrecks as well).
About 30 miles east of Stevens Point was a cutoff from Fremont to Oshkosh along State Hwy 110 which merged with State Hwy 45, which in turn connected to US 41 outside of Oshkosh. Though also both 2 lane highways, this "detour" shaved over 30 miles and a good amount of time off the trip as it was a more direct route bypassing Appleton and the towns of Neenah & Menasha. Back then 110 was a brand new road with all new blacktop, wide lanes, generous shoulders, and mild, surprisingly well banked curves, This actually was one of the the fastest portions of the trip, as it wasn't heavily travelled (very few big trucks as well) and oddly, almost never patrolled (had no trouble driving 80+ on the straight stretches and the banked curves, rated at 55 - 60, were easy to handle 5 mph faster than posted (especially with the suspension and wide stance my 442 had).
Sadly, since the upgrade of US 10 to a four lane divided highway and 41 to an interstate, Hwy110 has been pretty much abandoned and downgraded to a county trunk road.("County II" on the map today). It was kind of like Play Station's Gran Tourismo simulation in real life
The last 16 miles of the trip was the worst as back then, the Milwaukee metro area did not have anywhere near the freeway network currently shown on Google Maps either. Once Past Timmerman Airport on the far northwest side, pretty much the rest of the trip was all on city surface streets (save for the short 3 mile long Stadium Freeway spur) to my neighbourhood on the far southeast side of of the city.
For most the average trip time would be a at least 45 min longer.

Sweet ride. I used to have one of these (slant 6 and a snake-skin roof).
...that old Slant 6 was a great engine, very simple and reliable.
...bugger, the weekly PC freebie is for G3.
Frustrating because it is actually a nice piece of "everyday" clothing.
Totally useless as it's not backwards compatible.
I'm slithering off to bed...
...hisssssssssssssssssssssssss!
Found out that napoleonic era artillery (not napoleon cannons, which are different) have wheels with fourteen spokes for some reason, must have been as close to flexible as they could make them in the day cos they moved eight or ten feet backward from recoil
This is Genesis 3.

Yep. I actually could do all the maintenance on it myself. Remember the distributor? Setting points? There's an entire generation that thinks distributor caps are pencil holders. :lol:
That outfit answers the question "Why do they call it a pair of pants?" She is wearing only one pant. :)
i learned to drive in a 70's Ford Pinto. i would love to have one of those now, but for an old car like that, would need to learn how to fix it myself.
we wanted the Farrah car from charlie's angels back then.
:lol: the starsky and hutch car.
i filled out the thingee to be a rosity vendor :cheese: not the greatest store these days but i like their vendor controls.

What is one half of a pair of scissors?
Wednesday, Hump Day! Kiss a camel... :gulp:
Took today off to kick off the beginning of the end. Re-contacted some placement agencies, am cleaning up my resume' and creating a one-page summary (of over 35 years and dozens of jobs, lol)! Also prepping to switch machines.. soon this laptop will be in the "clean up" position and Charybdis will be front and center.
Hopefully next week I will be able to reformat and re-install Win7 on this machine. I'm going to try to turn her into a secure, wireless NAS server. :blank:
New wishlist whines: not on Daz, but Musicians Friend! :bug: Found a second set of headphones for critical listening that have a frequency response from 8Hz (!!) to 30JHz (!!)! ;ahhh: That's the widest range I've for form under $300.. and found another miniature MIDI controller I want. :red: I swear, gear addiction is worse than content addiction... :bug:
Off to find food and clean out storage containers.. I think beef quesadilla for lunch! :cheese:
What is one half of a pair of scissors?
A knife with a hole in the handle. :)
