Corporate Jet

Post by Dan Hankins »

Scott,
I enjoyed them pictures of them dudes shooting with two hands. I am impressed that there was a $350.00 prize.

But nothing is more impressive than your new corporate jet. Don't know where the kids ride or how you load, stow and secure the cargo, but I bet you got it figgured out.

Now we know how you can be in so many different places so fast.

Love to see the changes you have made to the aircraft to adapt it to your unique needs. How's the gas mileage? Do you let Warren drive this one?

Hope this finds you well and prosperous.

Respectully,
Bubba

Been thinking bout U reel hard last few days. Been thinkin' that there tire I got frum U was no account. I done drove that thing around for two dadgum years and it up and decides to come apart on me. I nearly showed up at your place for brekfus yestiday, just to settle the accoutn wid ye. Good thing I did'nt have it on my corparate jet, or it might have caused me to wreck it. And you know how hard it is for hillbillies to get them good jets with the McDonald's arches on the back of them

Trains, Ferries, Barges and Tars

Post by Dan Hankins »

Pilk,
Sure wished you would have stopped for breakfast t'other day. Had way too much fixed, and wound up eatin biscuits and gravy and ham and fried taters all day long.

Iffin you'd a stopped, we could have taken care of the warranty on that tar. Heck it had a lifetime warranty, but NOOOOO you get on here and gripe about the tar for you even let me know there was a problem. Well, it's too late now. Yer on yer own.

Bubba been down in them barges. Right next to where Forrest is a sittin, ther is a hatch. Sometimes Bubba had to drag hisself and a camera with a flash and a notebook and bag of camera stuff down in them hatches to inspect fer damage and wasteing of the steel hull and frame work. Not a pleasnt place to be. In fact once I was warned to step only on the framework, as the steel hull was so badly rusted that I could fall through, and I found that they were not kiddin about that. Ah, danger and adventure. The owner of course claimed that the barge was in fine condition, before the grounding that he says caused the barge to take on water.

Anyway, good to see that you are promoting the sport. Getting pretty good with the camera too. The train shots are good.

Respectfully,
Bubba
