Anything to do with mechanical, construction etc

I really like that, but I think you should do about 5 more variations on it and put it up for a vote.

On second thought, as good as you are with doing these plans, make it 20.

But why the heck does it say "rib locations?" That has nothing to do with the rendering.

Hey Maury, you made the same mistake as me (or maybe I led you astray) - someone contacted me a while ago to point out that I had wrongly used locus (choose your plural - locuses or loci) for the points that generate an ellipse, when it should be focus (pl - focuses or foci).

I'm not sure the trailer shape will come out wrong if you use the wrong word, but you never can be too careful.......

I'm pitiful:

I can't even understand the explanation.

From now on, I'll just observe in awe.

Oh wow! This is getting complex. Let's call them whatever we want. I withdraw my 'correction'!

Exactly, but I don't feel too bad:

Maury and Andrew were probably the BRILLIANT kids in high school geometry, but they couldn't get laid.

But on second thought, I stunk at the subject...

And I couldn't get laid either.

;) Maury, I am a fan of the song too. Amazing where you can end up as opposed to where you were heading.

Enjoy your reunion and the girls are either emaciated and wrinkled or chubby and gray. We do that ya know. :lol: Madjacks words " grue some." :lol: :lol: :lol:

A twenty minute walk will get you in dancing shape soon enough. ;)
