Thunderbird Club

Wow, cool…
there’s one at the AF museum in Akron…..the tires on the rear gear must be 2 stories high……you walk and walk and see three or four fighters, turn your head and the 36 is there….you keep walking and see another four of five fighters, turn your head again and the 36 is still there! lol! no joke…. and on and on…..always had a soft spot for Consolidated …..ugly American functionality at it’s best….. many don’t know 50% more 24’s we’re built than 17’s…..

I've got to get up to Akron. Been to the Navel Air Museum in Pensacola several times and even seen the Blue Angels do a little flying around.

I gave up and skipped 12-15 pages. What did I miss besides someone else getting a free '64 Thundebird when I didn't accept the offer in time?

There's going to be and East West cult (your'er a cult--no you're a cult) street fight at some point. Tickets are on sale now. Plaid will be taking pics....so you might want to just be there in person.
Other than that, same old, same old.

I lived on the East coast, West Coast and now I'm in the Flyover country cult

We also had wrestling on KTVU Channel 2, local Oakland station. Pepper Gomez, Pedro Morales, Pat Patterson, and the hated Ray Stevens. The Spoiler, Haystack Callhoun...ah, those were the days. You could write to the studio and get free tickets to come watch.

What? No Jerry "The King" Lawler and Tojo Yamamoto? You were cheated.

Some good people to deal with are having 10% off Rotos if anyone is looking for a set.

Not a noticeable difference with the Flatwound pricing tbh comparing with Thomann.

Anyone have the interior case length needed for a VP?

I guess I could measure it, but I can confirm that the newer "epiphone" hardshell cases fit a VP no problem. I ordered this guy right here Invalid Link Removed

And no headstock clearance issues at all. There's a good couple inches between the top of the headstock and the end of the case interior.

That case looks like the one that came with my CP. The interior length at the longest part is 50".

Will be able to later. If I forget, please remind if if no one has given the numbers.

For weeks I kept seeing "news" about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez getting married, and now am treated to headlines about them honeymooning in Italy. I could not possibly care less (other than all the jet fuel), but thought maybe this must be really important to somebody (probably no one here) so I'm just passing this on.

Why did Affleck subjected himself to marry himself to that egocentric, narcissistic, self-absorbed awful woman?

Fortunately I can say I know nothing about either other their names and they are entertainers.

because she has more money than him….

Me too (but not U2).

Never U2.

So I stand corrected. There is less than an inch of clearance for my VP but it still does not touch the headstock. Interior length is 50” at its longest. I just got this case this week so not sure if they have been changed recently. All I know is that it fits.
