Good Morning all in nebraska..

first i want to apologize as well. I should have called Dusters and found out they were closing early on Sunday. I did not know that. So sorry to Randy for driving all this way and not being able to meet up with us. We wanted to put a note on the door of Dusters for anyone else but we were unable too. (i think i saw your truck drive through Duncan Randy, gray one)

second, was good to meet up with Pat and Kenny and also see Rob again. The beers tasted good and I wish i would have been able to stick around longer but i wanted to go try to find one more deer. i did see 5 doe but did not shoot at them.

KOOK of the Day!!!!

On this date in 1971, "D.B. Cooper" — real name unknown — boarded a Northwest Orient flight in Portland, Oregon. Carrying a black briefcase that he said held a bomb, he hijacked the plane, demanding and receiving $200,000 when the plane touched down at Seattle-Tacoma. He then ordered the plane back up in the air and parachuted out somewhere over southwestern Washington. Except for $5,880 of the loot found on the banks of the Columbia River in 1980, no trace was ever found of the man or the money. The drama series Prison Break featured a character suspected by the show's hero, Michael Scofield, of being the mysterious hijacker.
  • Born: ?
  • Birthplace: ?
  • Died: Vanished 24 November 1971 (fate unknown)
  • Best Known As: The parachuting skyjacker who maybe got away
D.B. Cooper was the world's most famous jumping skyjacker. The mysterious passenger, who bought a ticket using the name Dan Cooper, boarded a Northwest Orient flight in Portland, Oregon on 24 November 1971 -- the eve of Thanksgiving. Once aloft he threatened to blow up the plane and demanded $200,000 and four parachutes. After the plane landed at Seattle-Tacoma Airport and his demands were met, Cooper ordered the pilot of the 727 to take off and head for Mexico, flying at 10,000 feet. Cooper jumped from the rear of the plane somewhere over Washington state, taking the cash with him. Despite exhaustive searches, Cooper's body was never found and his whereabouts are unknown.
The hijacker actually called himself Dan Cooper; a reporter later heard an investigator mention a "D.B. Cooper," and the name stuck... In 1980, a child digging in the sand beside the Columbia River near Vancouver, Washington dug up $5800 of Cooper's money in a bundle of $20 bills. (The FBI had recorded the serial numbers.) That's the only Cooper cash found so far... Cooper smoked; his brand of cigarettes was Raleigh... The 1981 movie The Pursuit of D.B. Cooper starred Treat Williams and Robert Duvall in a fictionalized version of Cooper's story... Northwest Orient is now known as Northwest Airlines.

Got the exhaust leak mostly contained, going to have to take it back apart to fix it comepletely but since its not that bad im going to wait until i do the exhaust. But i found a new problem, a leaky carb, just rebuilt it about a month and a half ago and hasnt leaked since, now it is. Im just going to see if i cant find a new one instead of rebuilding this one.

Sheesh! three hours and no post. Man. Okay, since I'm done torturing myself for the day, here are some pics of my nightmare.

Before: Nice 70's look



Dig the green plastic on the wet bar doors!! That's hip!


What it looks like now. those things in front of the fireplace are the bookshelve that normally go on each side of the fireplace.


Just finished up priming the ceiling, going to start texturing tomorrow (that should be fun-NOT), and hopefully paint it somtime wednesday. Then I have a TON of oak veneering to do on the cabinets.
