No, he's afraid, and I'm trying to shape him up. It probably won't
work, because he hasn't the balls to face reality. Being stuck at
home, post-op, there's not a lot to do.

Post-op?? What? Frontal lobotomy ?:-)

You're both fucking retarded.

I went in to work today for a few hours and worked on gear used to
test the worlds next generation of fighters. You?


JSF.

I am building the RF simulator for it.

F-22.

Already built that one.

U2/Skunk Works. B52 and AC130 upgrades. HUD upgrades. Some
Navy stuff, fiberoptics. Commercial jet engine and engine control
computer qualification. Aircraft power systems. APUs. Railroad
engines. Gas pipelines in Russia. Stationary power plants. Diesel
engine test cells. NMR. MRI. ICCD cameras. Thermocouple measurement
and simulation. Picosecond timing. Load cells. LVDTs. Firing the
world's biggest laser. And a couple of very interesting sounding
things with million-count rotary encoders that they won't tell me what
they are.

FAB-T is next.

And I installed a light in the company garage yesterday, on a
photocell! Conduit. .22 nail gun. I needed to do something with
immediate gratifaction.

I had a real nice Hilti gun from my cable post wire days, but I
needed the $450 bucks I got for it. Only had about $300 in it.

Will drive a 20 penny through a quarter inch of hot rolled plate and
then into concrete with one PURPLE shot no starter hole. The purple
ones are pretty fucking loud. .25 caliber.
