Evening all!

New diabetic med the doc gave last week me seems to be doing the trick. My blood sugars are lower than they've been in years and I am feeling great. The downside, yes there is a downside, is that I had to stop three times to find a bathroom on the way home. You'd think that my wife would be sympathetic, but noooooooo. She starts texting me raindrops and running water. Geez...

If this keeps up, I might just get caught up on things between trips to the bathroom...

Dave, that's something Tiff would do. Hang in there, maybe things will slow down when your body gets used to it.

Eric. I have to get before pictures of the wrecks I do. I'm really bad about not taking pictures of how I get stuff.

Unfortunately that's the way the med works so I doubt there's going to be much improvement.

No meds here today but high fiber cereal for breakfast, three Fiber One bars and a couple Nature Valley granola bars during the day with Andouille sausage and broccoli for supper results in record hang time farts. I dropped one that crescendoed with some hang time and was on the floor laughing in tears, Patty got me with the Lysol. I am MR TOXIC.

Fired too many people who all went to the other hospital. I left Mercy with a bad taste.

Alan, what is up with the mustang at your job?

Dang it was a short day at work, only inspected 5 main rotor blades.

But each blade has 21 individual pockets, so that's 42 pockets to inspect. (Have to insp each side right?). And then I have to tap ck each pocket (each side) at least 5 times. To try to hear if there is any honeycomb dis-bonding. I am suppose to be using a .2 kg texolite hammer, I use a 5 ruble coin, so the Russians to not think I am hammering on a brand new blade.

21 pockets + the other side = 's 42 x per blade, so 5 blades = 210 pockets x 5 taps each pocket ='s 1050 taps....long day.

Along with insp the tip cap lights, mount hwdw, BIM indicator to see if there is any nitrogen leaks form the titanium spar. Do a serial # ch against the (passport= their manufacture paperwprk) to make sure it matches up and is not a fake passport or boot leg blade.

Insp the nickel abrasion strip for de-lamination, and the trim tabs to be aligned and not be out of limits, and a few other parts and pieces that are not as cool.

But after that, I did get to look over a old Russian Biplane today setting on the ramp. I believe it was a Polikarpov (Po-2 Light Brigade biplane). During World War II the plant manufactured about 10,500 of them...This one I looked at, looked to be a after the war trainer, NO machine guns and looked like it was about to get overhauled for being put on a display stick or in some museum.

Pic is from the internet, cause NO cameras are allowed on the flt line.

Morning Missouri. I'm tapped out. lol

sounds like a rough day rich glad it is you and not me..... but that is a cool old bi-plane.. i got to go up in a bi-plane with a friend once.. for being a slow, low altitude, low tech machine it was the best flight i was ever on.. the vibrations, wind in your hair, cable and pulleys squeaking and flopping, and a very loud boxer engine made it so much more of a thrill than even a trip in a corsair A-7k without afterburners was ..

Good Morning Everybody!

Well, let's see if I can get the BMW pieces sprayed today. I don't think there's much to do at the lot other than switch out a window regulator and a van that's coming in for something I can't remember. I guess we'll see.
