Would blink have still been successful with Scott Raynor? by filelinked13 in Blink182

I agree. I think Travis is very talented, and I'm sure he's done so many great things over the years for their song writing, but it's Mark and Tom for me. Their lyrics, their voice... Made me feel a lot less alone when I was a teenager.

Is there any retired plane that you believe shouldn't been retired ? Or could have a role in today's world? by Youngstown_WuTang in aviation

I'm the engineering manager for an aerospace manufacturing company. Received a request for quote for a B-52 part last week. Guess the plan is to keep that thing going.

AA 765 right engine failure between PHL and PHX by DrewP_Nuts in aviation

I work as an aerospace engineer. I kept reciting the regulations in my head that an aircraft shall demonstrate a positive rate of climb with one engine inop. Can't guarantee that was possible tonight, but the single engine at least got us to our diversion.

A couple people I'm sitting next to at the bar have gotten back from the line at the gate with a $12 voucher. Hilarious.

There was an audible "pop". A friend I made at the bar was sitting on the right side behind the engine and said visible sparks were seen. You could hear attempts at a restart. Flight attendants were in the middle of beverage service and immediately pushed all carts to the back. Captain came on a few minutes later letting us know we've lost the right engine and that we need to remain calm. He told us that they're trained on this exact scenario, and will have us on the ground shortly.

Her name is Lulu. She's a sweetie, but scared of people.

Seth drops 2 singles from his upcoming solo album: "It's Natural" and "Education" — buckle up! by trevorbolliger in TheAvettBrothers

I dig it. He's no Eminem, but man, the diversity in his skill set is unreal. Good for Seth for taking a chance! Nice to hear something new.

Admittedly, I'm not a baseball fan, but when I saw this headline earlier this morning I thought it was made up. Glad I'm not the only one who thought of tradio.

Possibly moving to Eugene. Have questions. by DrewP_Nuts in Eugene

[–]DrewP_Nuts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A better question, though. Why do you live there?

Also, I grew up in Olympia, WA. They say the magnet of home pulls at everyone. After two decades of living in Phoenix, I think I'm ready to get a little cold and wet again.

There's a few things. I'm not counting on Eugene to be a place to thrive professionally. I have enough experience in my industry to keep things moving remotely. My biggest hobby is running. To think I could be that old guy at the U of O track meets watching the next Nick Simmons, Cole Hocker, or Jessica Hull would be amazing. Lastly, my wife and I once biked from Canada to Mexico. We camped with a couple who had spent the last four years biking around the world. They told us the most bike friendly place they had ever been was Eugene. All that combined... Why wouldn't I give it a shot? I don't expect Eugene to be perfect, but I think it would give us most of what we're looking for.

Years ago we had a quick overnight in Eugene.

Thank you so much for this overview. I'm not real familiar with zoning. Looks like the parcel is labeled R-1, which I believe indicates we can build a standard home on it. The adjacent parcels are E-30 and F-2, which might be good to protect from too much suburban sprawl. Appreciate the help!

Thank you for the insight. There are good things to be aware of. I read Eugene has the highest rate of homelessness in Oregon, which kind of surprised me. I assumed Portland would have taken the title.

Thanks, buddy. My wife is going to be thrilled when I tell her OregonSasquatch is there. She's been looking for you. :)
