I was dreaming of the TSX and poof, the power came on at 7 minutes to 1am. Over 8 hours without electricity but still thinking of the TSX and TL! Thanks Mr. Edison!

 

For those of us with deposits let's hope the Ohio plant is humming along fine.

 

The TSX is built in Saitama, Japan! Nothing to worry about...

 

He was refering to the TL production I believe.

 

I was referring to both vehicles. Hey skull and crossbones- VF-84 Jolly Rogers?

 

Yes. You are the first person in a long time to actually know where that came from (most people think if it is from Robotech/Macross).

I had my first communion (yes I am Catholic) on the Nimitz (CVN 67) and during that visit I met the lead pilot and RIO from the 84th. I don't think they were ready for a kid to A) talk so bloody fast (yeah, I remember being that excited) and B) to actually know a whole heck of a lot about the F-14. So they gave me the call sign Skull One. Which is funny because no one up until that point had actually had that call sign in the Jolly Rodgers. Just a bit of history: pilots are not allowed to pick their call signs, they are earned and giving to them by the squadron. And yes, Robotech/Macross is actually based on the Nimitz/VF-84th. But I had the call sign 6 or 7 years before the cartoon was first aired

 

heh, I was at Manhattan when the blackout occurred....

 

Was it exciting?

 

yeah, it was, and interesting (like I'm part of this big historical event in the making)!!
