It felt like it, too. I was drinking like a fiend up there and in the car on the way home, and I still felt like I was half a gallon low the rest of the night. I think I'm showing my age.

I wish I had 10% of the opportunities to fly rockets you do.
I probably have 50 unflown builds.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL
, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !

Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, AGITATION, CHAOS, TURMOIL, FIASCOS, AGGRAVATION, INSTIGATION, NUISANCE-ACTION, and HAVOC !

Well, keep in mind that January to June was a wasteland for me from a flight standpoint, so I'm just making up for lost time at this point. It's looking good for another small field launch for me tomorrow morning. I'm picking up a fresh pack of AA batteries this afternoon and I'm going to try the old Electron Beam at B6-4 Field. Sunday, Sunday, SUNDAY!!!! Sometimes they go, sometimes it blows!
