| ftttu = Far Too Technical To Understand At star parties, my buddies and I would be asked so way out questions from UFOs to who knows what else, so our response would be "now that is just far too technical to understand." It became a running inside joke, which my buddies and I would shorten to ftttu when dealing with kook questions.

| I have been a fan of formula 1 for years. In the early 60’s Stirling Moss was a top driver. He drove for a team that won constructor championship......Vanwall.
Vanwall was a motor racing team and racing car constructor that was active in Formula One during the 1950s. Founded by Tony Vandervell, the Vanwall name was derived by combining the name of the team owner with that of his Thinwall bearings produced at the Vandervell Products factory at Acton, London. |

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should

BTW, Stirling Moss's 90th birthday today.

| I chose H&K-Guy because Parabellum was already taken...
Seriously, I had already spent some time over on another unnamed forum that deals strictly with the professional user who likes all things HK, and that was my handle. 20 years ago, I started migrating to other boards, and I carried the username from there.
Funny, since now there are far more Sigs in my collection than HKs.

| Recoatlift= lifting of clear coat when flash off or hand slick time (usually 15 min to a 1/2 hour)between clear coats is exceeded. Recoatlift times vary with temp, air movement & solvent penetration into the base coat. Remedy, strip, bake, or sand. Re-do. Not fun & costly to shop. When you start to color and clear. Work until the job is done. No breaks, no lunch, just work til yor’re done. If you watch any of the restoration shows, that painter will work into the night rather than have a recoatlift, don’t ask me how I know. My explanation will soak up bandwidth. |

| Owned a military blazer, the M1009. Fun to drive, kind of miss it. Can’t get one in decent shape anymore without paying through the nose now. |
