I wanted your readers to know that I got some unusual/different aircraft postcards in, and I talk about them, and all sorts of air stuff - in hopes someone, some reader will ask me to send the postcard to them. Just go to this <a href="http://elizabethmcclung.blogspot.com/2010/11/aussieoz-necropolis-1922-qantas.html" rel="nofollow">post</a> at Screw Bronze, and pick out the postcard you want sent for free. <br /><br />Thanks for explaining about the holes, I think maybe he should get TWO windshields then.Elizabeth McClunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03627373214555333537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-67845165762889805332010-11-10T03:29:41.874+00:002010-11-10T03:29:41.874+00:00I can predict with almost 100% certainty that the ...I can predict with almost 100% certainty that the old windshield had rock holes in it. Almost everyone in the north drives around with a windshield cracked from rocks. You'd have to win a lottery to be able to afford a new one every time you got hit with a rock from the wheels of a big truck.Aviatrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634111275860140084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-70623938621403325012010-11-10T03:26:09.989+00:002010-11-10T03:26:09.989+00:00David: I thought it went

Only then does the camera angle change and you can see he has an amazing high tech robot to throw the frisbee for him.

They said they haven't much use for it as life is good. They live in a very modest home, drive 1980s vehicles and don't care much for travel, or anything else other than what they're doing.<br /><br />They'll probably enjoy their winnings by the giving away, more than some do that lose it all in a year and are worse off than when they started.grantnoreply@blogger.com
