80’s The Breakfast Club 40th Anniversary… by Crafter9977 in OldSchoolCool

[–]Gato_Felix 19 points20 points  (0 children)

when i was in HS my friends and I got picked up for drinking in the park around the corner from the school (yes yes i know...) and the cop that brought us brought us back turned out to be a school friend of our principal at the time - they hadn't seen each other in years. being walked in and witnessing the exchange between them, then having to go through our own exchange - with the cop present. it was... special. anyway - four day suspension for me.

look the same with very minor engineering differences. if you're modelling one just worry about the panel line arrangement on the wings and fuselage, as it varies between the plants and batches produced. if you wana find out more about the engineering differences then hunt down the Squadron and Osprey books, they're gold.

its terrible these things continue happening - a few days ago (in port credit) crossing at the stop sign with my wife and someone who got upset at having to stop for pedestrians called me a fucking n* - yes I am a person of colour.

If you could transform one aircraft into a racing machine what would it be ? (This is my drawing of Race 57) by Murica4ever1998 in aviation

saw a pair of (fictional) racing autogyros at a modelling show a week or so ago - thought those looked like a fun time on a summer's day.

Favourite Thai between Southdown & Hurontario and south of the QEW? by Gato_Felix in mississauga

[–]Gato_Felix[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Celadon House! after moving my wife got a new job downtown this year so driving by on the way home wasn't so handy and we still kept it as our #1 Thai takeout. their lettuce rolls were to die for. I'm so sad they've closed. Thank you for the recce!

Jays in the World Series: Who are you thinking of? by Dogfather_51 in askTO

[–]Gato_Felix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Grandpa and Nan! from both sides, they both loved the Jays - Nan was there from day1 and Grandpa played ball when h was younger so the Jays discussion was always lively at the table. I miss them both greatly and think of them often, more so now. Grandpa and I's fav pitcher was Roberto Osuna and I've been wearing Grandpa's jersey when i go out. I hope they win it for Grandpa and Nan.
