Chloe, I'll have 2 eggs over easy with an OJ and a cuppa joe... <br /> <br />Good morning y'all, <br /> <br />I'm kinda busy with actual work, so not much time for a long post. <br /> <br />Latest modeling project is a 4-foot stretch of asphalt road surface using sheet styrene. This is the 2nd go-round, I covered it with latex paint since the first stuff crinkled when I covered it with spray-on laquer[B)]. Nada problem though, the rough-textured Ralph Lauren 'River Rock' gray looks more like a genuine road surface anyway. I suppose I should be having great fun with this, but the recent shocks of exploding electric rates and rising gas prices have instilled this subconscious apprehension within me - now I'm wondering "what next" (bad luck comes in 3's I've always heard...) <br /> <br /><b>Adam</b> - <i>CONGRATS</i> on your firefighter accomplishment![tup] I modify what <b>Inch</b> said above by adding, Hope you only have to use your training during <i>refresher courses</i> [to keep in practice]... <br /> <br /><b>NJBill</b> - That's great to have your sons interested in this great Hobby, whether they share your era or not! My son has zero interest in trains, he's a sports car fanatic - oh well I tried anyway... <br /> <br /><b>John</b> - Starting on that propane truck model <i>already</i> eh? I didn't know those Plastruct domes were so readily available in your area[;)]... <br /> <br /><b>Attaboy</b> - Maybe I'll see you in Phily this coming July? <br /> <br />. . . <br /><i>TTG</i>... <br />
