Arrgh, it's a great day to be a Pirate
Well, the wife and I went to an IMAC aerobatic competition about 2 weeks ago now. I meant to write on it, but I never actually sat down to do the typing. It was pretty cool, I saw a rolling circle, well actually quite a few rolling half circles. I saw some other good stuff. I finally got the motor screwed in with some small brass circles. The blasa actually split on one side, I knew I should have drilled some pilots. Oh well, it's fastened good. I've been looking at the elevator and it's tilted so the right side is lower than the left. I should probably dig some of the gorilla glue out and re-glue it level. Then she'll fly a bit better. I'm thinking about getting a Raven off Hobby-lobby sometime to replace this one. I should probably put wheels on the Formosa and give landing a good try first though.
Beyond that, I got into a Sid Meier's Pirates stint the last few weeks. I played "Tradewinds 2" which isn't much of a game, but it got me wanting to play. I'd read some good reviews on Pirates! and saw it at Wal-mart. The wife indulged me, I wasn't sure I should waste the money, and the last two weeks have been dueling, sinking frigates, wooking daughters, sacking cities, and digging up lost treasure and lost cities. Pretty fun, the game could have an end movie, but I didn't technically do everything that could be done. I'll have to run through it once more to see if I can fit everything into one career, but that'll wait a month or three.
So, maybe I'll actually do a little open source work in the near future. There's a few tweaks to GnuCash I'd kind of like to make. We've been iorning out how we use it for home finances and it's been going okay. Well, I guess that's about it.
