My Wife is driving me crazy!!!
After working for over an hour trying to start my cox jeep engine. The most i would get was a sputter, so I swapped glow plugs, changed reed, filled tank, you name it, i did it!! I got a sputter, then a pop, then a bit more and YES! Its running!! After 35 years!! I adjusted it to a nice throttle, and then .......
Out comes my wife from the house screaming TURN THAT OFF!! YOUR SCARING THE DOG! TURN THAT OFF!!
Oh to be a kid again!!

Just think @midtown711, victory in grasp at finally getting your Cox Jeep to run, you've won! Perhaps time to quit while ahead?

Re: My Wife is driving me crazy!!!
Hi midtown711,
Oh, to be a kid again !
When we were kids, we got those Coxes running.
Having a great time...
Then a Mother (no kidding, with a broom !)
Would chase us off our site (s)...
You have not lived until, you have been half a way through a .049 CL flight...
And an angry mother (with a broom !) chases you.
She just wanted quiet, to get a younger than us kids to sleep.
Funny part, she yelled and screamed more than a Cox .049...
That is the story around here...
You will have fun,
Hope you like this story...
I bet your dog, just likes your Jeep. And would love to chase it.
If you move a football field or two, away.
You will not bother anyone...
And find people,
Wow! What is that ! Where do I get one?
With respect,
Dave

Re: My Wife is driving me crazy!!!
Several years back, I had been seeing a lady off and on, but she had never been to my home. When she finally visited, one of her first comments was, "You've got that airplane crap all over the house!" Oh well, so much for that relationship.
Re: My Wife is driving me crazy!!!
Respect for one's personal interests is important. You certainly don't want a woman who wants to fix and repair you.
Ecclesiastes 7:26 (WEB) wrote:I find more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and traps, whose hands are chains. Whoever pleases God shall escape from her; but the sinner will be ensnared by her.

Re: My Wife is driving me crazy!!!
I will tell you a story, I hope the translator conveys what I really want to tell you, here it goes:
A few years ago, I frequented a night bar, and I would sit on a stool next to the bar, there I would have a beer, or some particular drink, one of the people who served there was a friend and he knew that I built airplanes. modeling, so one night, we were talking about exactly that, about r/c planes. A really beautiful woman, sat on the sidewalk and ordered a drink, while my friend served him a compa, she was attentive to our chat, then at one point she introduced herself, she told me, my name is Marcela, hello I told her I'm Mauricio, suddenly the three of us were chatting, my friend (the one from the bar), Marcela, a beautiful woman, and I…the chat continued for a few minutes and suddenly she says, Mauricio, so you have several planes ?, how interesting and added: I hope I'm not intrusive, but would you take me for a walk one day when you can?.....oohhh my eyes and those of my friend!!...then a great laugh comes to me above and I tell her, I would gladly take you for a ride, but my planes are radio-controlled model planes!... they are not planes to crew or that can carry people... then, she said with a firm voice: they are as a toy!!??.....to which I said, Yes, it could be understood as something like that!!!...after a few minutes she had left the banque ta!!, hahaha

La mujer muy hermosa exclamá, "eses aviones ... ¡son solas juguetes!" Obviamente, ¡usted no es su piloto, Lúpin! ¡Ni es su caballero de brillante armadura nada!MauricioB wrote:Marcela, a beautiful woman, and I…the chat continued for a few minutes and suddenly she says, Mauricio, so you have several planes ?, how interesting and added: I hope I'm not intrusive, but would you take me for a walk one day when you can?.....oohhh my eyes and those of my friend!!...then a great laugh comes to me above and I tell her, I would gladly take you for a ride, but my planes are radio-controlled model planes!... they are not planes to crew or that can carry people... then, she said with a firm voice: they are as a toy!!??.....to which I said, Yes, it could be understood as something like that!!!...after a few minutes she had left the banque ta!!, hahaha
The very beautiful woman exclaims, "These airplanes ... are only toys!" Obviously, you are not her pilot, Lúpin! Nor, her knight in shiny armor either!
Sobre el saxofonista, 1 de 4 hombres está feliz
Mauricio, no importa entonces, creemos sus modelos de aviones son las obras muy excelentes.
Mauricio, it doesn't matter then, we believe your model airplanes are very excellent works.
