Now we don't want KB to be getting a bad rap here... when I post the picture of the red clicking heels in his threads it's because someone is usually wishing for the impossible. Not to say that KB actually wears the things...

Typhoon class, baby... nothing bigger.

You bad, bad boy! Better watch out, Miss Understood likes bad boys. Better lock your doors at night.

Very cool! It's amazing what's out there in the Seiko world. Thanks for posting it.

All good points, Dems. And your perspective is shared by about half the people here... the other half vote laissez faire and want to leave him alone. And he's so stinking remote, he could if people would stay away. Hmmmmmmm... culpability raises its ugly head. Two summers ago we had a mama bear With Attitude about a mile from my back door, and a couple people got pretty badly chewed. DNA showed that mama bear was responsible, but it was the weirdest summer, a LOT of people got chased and woofed and treed, and the public outcry was enormous to GET THAT BEAR. What they didn't know was at least 3 bears were involved. The one mama bear was just doing her job, protecting her cubs, teaching them self defense. In the end she was shot and the cubs went to a zoo. She wasn't at fault... we were in her backyard. She wasn't habituated with food, she just had a massive chip on her shoulder. Right now all the bears are in hyperphagia and grumpy as heck. So do we shoot them when we get woofed, or do we just stay the heck out of the woods for a couple more weeks till they bed down? I had a big old bear right outside my window last Friday, a foot away, and he woofed me real big because he thought I was a threat. I was just looking out in the dark to see what was making all the racket. Did I need to shoot him? Naaaahhhhhhh. He left eventually. That's how I vote. R-E-S-P-E-C-T and it goes both ways.

Here's some footage up at Charlie's cabin with his bears.

Those are some great chunky retro dive pieces!

What's worth more per ounce, Brevet 8mm crowns or early Sub bezels? Bezels are going for $1,600 and up, crowns for $1,000 last time I saw a Big Brevet. Good LORD NIce deal, Shundi.

Mmmmmmmmm, very nice!! I wonder if one could talk them into producing a vintage domed acrylic version?

Is this a clear, reverse printed bezel insert?

No knots needed? It was blowing about 25 knots when this old bird crashed and burned.

Dems wins it! Of course we knew he would. And bonus points to boot! How to tie a Turk's Head

Lani, remember yer brudda from anudda mudda here in Alaska if you decide to remove that signed crown! I have a certain project it would go with nicely.

Yeah baby!!! Two points to the first person here who can name the knot he has for his neckerchief slide... And BONUS POINTS if you know how to tie one!

Mmmmmmmmmm, love that AOPA Navitimer!!

Tell ya what, it takes a long time to download all of Lani's fine photos when each byte comes in this format:

Heck, it only hit 108mph last time. Let's hope for more than a mild breeze this time.

"Things that go bump in the night" NOAA has issued a severe weather alert for tonight through tomorrow morning, with "high winds" expected at higher elevations. If I go offline for awhile that means the winds blew the microwave receiver off the side of the house again. Nail down the shutters, it's gonna be a wild ride!

And this takes us back to why RWG was created: to spread information. To hopefully help people not get scammed. This place gives you the tools, it's up to you to use them. I'm sure sorry to hear of people ripping each other off like that.

Ahem. Whichwatch? Case number?

Hey, I just noticed you called us "Good people"! Now I know you're insane!
