    Comanche Killed
    When I was working in Shelton, CT at
    Inline Plastics, in 1995, I got a chance to see the first 2 prototypes of the Comanche at the Sikorsky plant nearby. I actually got to touch prototype 1, which meant I had to hide my pass under my shirt, walk onto the production floor and sneak up to it. My boss at the time had worked at Sikorsky for a long time and got some of his former employees to sneak us in. We had OFFICE ONLY passes, which meant that we were not allowed on the floor or anywhere near it.

    It looked like an impressive helicopter even if it was mostly airframe at the time (it was still a year away from flying).

    Today the Army cancelled the program (NYT need password), almost 20 years after it was envisioned.

    I.S.

    Sometimes I wish I could be a punter, or a giver, but I have to solve the students problems. I can't just give them 6 monitors and say have a good day. I can't tell them they are an idiot either, though sometimes JG thinks I do. I have to look at the computer and figure out what stupid thing the student has done to it, then fix it if I can.

    So this really made me laugh. "
    We Don't support that." (Need a Salon day pass)

    My brother sells Insurance, Life, Health, etc. Luckily he doesn't sell door to door, but that would be a good conversation starter.

    "My family? Well I have 5 brothers and sisters, a teacher, a framer, a student, a nutritionist, and
    a door to door insurance salesman. You need some insurance? He can get it for you pretty cheap as long as you haven't gotten a black eye from a baby zebra on the Fourth of July that is."

    So.. Need insurance?

    Call my brother:

    Chris Cutillo

    Bruce F. Wilcox Division Office
    Mutual of Omaha

    (631) 234-9100, ext. 245

    A yeti throws a snow ball that has to hit a penguin that has been shot into the air by an orca and then hit the bullseye. (My highscore was only 540.)

    Mel Gibson says that only Catholics can go to Heaven, and that his wife will go to Hell. (Yee hah! Looks like I am going to heaven.)

    Did you ever wonder what it would be like to pop a water balloon in space? (Hell yeah, but they did it in a plane instead.)

    Which candidate matches your views? (My match ups: Kuchinich 100%, Kerry 97%, Dean 96%, Edwards 93%, Sharpton 91%, and Bush 17%)

    Diver flees with shark attached to leg. (Ow.)

    Today I found the most elusive of all commuter desires, the never ending parking meter.

    Not one of those broken meters, in Boston you can only park there for 1 hour. No I found a meter that was stopped in time. It always had an hour and twenty-three minutes left. You did not have to feed it quarters all day, or race the meter maid when you were 2 minutes late. The meter stepped outside of the bounds of the normal everyday Beacon Street car scramble.

    The problem is that once such a meter is found you never want to lose it. So you keep your car there all day, never driving, and when the whistle blows you find you don't want to drive home, for fear of never seeing the spot empty again. If, the meter is still so afflicted the next day, you might find yourself hovering around it waiting for the lucky devil that is parked there to move, and thus you'll never get to work.

    It may have just been for today, a quirk in spacetime, and is most likely never to be seen again.
