Thunderbird Club

[JIO]

Oh holy smokes, you're even close to me! (sort of) I guess I better behave or it'll be "OF WITH HIS HEAD!!!!"

Yes, being new to the (THUNDERBIRD) village, a few things should be explained. The THUNDERBIRD Queendom is lead by Queen Veronica, who has a row of THUNDERBIRD's a Subaru long. (the official car of QVTM) The good people of the village do accept numbers, even though they are (free) men and women, however.., one number out of the ever growing membership number doesn't exist. This canard makes the good members of the village smile, and it is accepted for what it is and not questioned. It becomes a way of saying "life is too short" as in, "it could be worse, it's not like it's #62!" followed by knowing laughter and winks. The general atmosphere in the village is communal with much sharing of various aspects of life revolving around THUNDERBIRD's over all other basses across the land, especially ones made by King LEO the 7th. (he rules in another village) Cars, tasty beverages, cute pets - these topics all flow freely under the THUNDERBIRD "big tent". We do have "too much fun" sometimes leading to the great and unmatched wisdom of the tb Mods to remind us all of what this Queendom represents, which if you haven't guessed is THUNDERBIRD's!

Well said.

 

[Gaolee]

For those of us using proper measurement systems, are those nautical miles and what is that in either furlongs or parsecs?

A whole lot of cubits.

 

[PillO]

A whole lot of cubits.

It isn't an ark!

 

[Gaolee]

Wow! Makes my pedal board look quaint

It's not a pedal board. Nothing plugs into it. It's it's own instrument that makes little to no sense to normal people. I think it's incomprehensible, but it's great. I'm resisting going down that rabbit hole.

 

[Gaolee]

It isn't an ark!

It might be. You don't know - it's the ark of Thunderbirds. Pairs and pairs and pairs of them.

 

[JJR58]

It isn't an ark!

Once again, so classic!, only here.....

Normal?

This should be the bylaws and royal charter for the club.

 

[JJR58]

Royal Character.

We have been chosen. Crazy characters we are. All of us.

IMy parents got a '78 Ford station wagon brand new. It was one of the smaller, square ones which have a name that has disappeared from my memory. Good thing, too. All kinds of things that shouldn't break managed to break at bad times on that car.

Ah, that would be a Ford Fairmont.

 

[Klondike]

Last night I was suffering from an insufferable measure of insomnia. I found myself in my shop and went to start dry fitting the pup. I could kot get the wire all the way theough so i ended up getting tape stuck inside!

so I grabbed the chisle and went to town digging ip the closed rout. I was so close to paint. So i have a little setback that will get straight soon(hope tomorrow) but also in the news - the paint has been chosen and is in the house!

 

[lowend1]

So we're doing the car thing again?

What do you mean, "again"? It's a constant undercurrent here.

 

[JIO]

Well said.

 

[StephnG]

A whole lot of cubits.

Or Just A Few AU's

A view from the stage last night.
Karen plays trumpet, keys, percussion and sings backups. Sometimes two of the above at the same time.
She also has a Masters degree in music theory, so we tend to defer to her judgement when working out harmonies.
View attachment 3559249

Do you have video of her playing trumpet and singing at the same time?

 

[Miles_ONeal]

Rollerderby is as much a sport as pro wrestling is.

More than.

 

[Miles_ONeal]

The trumpet player I worked with in Miami would play trumpet with his left hand and string lines on a set of keys with his right simool....no, symult.....no...at the same time.

There is legend of a guy in Canada who plays bass, sings and plays keyboards simool … symult at the same time. Has to be legend because he doesn't play out anymore. Just writes books . Book.

I have a friend who does that. Not Canadian.

Looks like it could be what Metal Machine Music was made with.
