  1. I am honored by the generosity on this forum. I truly do not deserve it. Thank you, thank you. kjm
  2. Telekinetic manipulation of the generator. The power of the mind is an awesome thing. Think! Think! Think!!! kjm
  3. Whispering doesn't work. BTDT. But some must learn by experience. This time I'm trying plain ol' telepathy. Think,think,think! kjm
  4. Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends here and best wishes to my friends across the pond. kjm
  5. Goggle, gobble, gobble.................................Bam!.........................................Yum!
  6. Baloo - I think it's about 921 or 923 numbers in order to guarantee a win. The odds are long but getting better. Luv ya', guys. kjm
  7. RR - Someday we'll explain it to you. Pete - Thank you. kjm
  8. This kite should go To someone deserving. Me. kjm (I like it, Pete. Thanks.)
  9. Pete, You are just too smart for me. Begging didn't work. Whispering didn't work. Shouting didn't work. And now you've called me out on the denial ploy. I will have to think of something else now. And I was really enjoying Reef Runner's and SS's responses. Think, think, think. Must come up with new idea. Think, think. kjm
  10. No, none of the above. Just a ray of light in the dark(side). Oh,my. kjm
  11. Actually the number of the month is 461. But it's only a Rev. LOL. kjm
  12. Okay, here goes. 1. My favorite kiting event was our local kite festival in Atlantic Beach, NC. The weather was not the best (almost too much wind and the temps turned cold, for NC coast that is). I got to see and visit with a lot of my kiting friends that I only see once or twice a year. I flew in a lot of mass ascensions an even flew my quad line. But more about that later. 2. The special story was about my quad line flying. I started considering quad line when I saw the Vamp Devil in photos from the KTAI. I just had to have one. Got the black now with the red wings in the first shipment to our kite shop. Began to teach myself quad line flying in the spring. Got lots of attention on the beach. And some more Vamp Devils were sold. Talk began n the summer about a group fly of Vamp Devils at the kite festival. I got this wild idea about flying the Vamp Devil to music dressed as Dracula (black cape, red shirt, black pants, vampire teeth). Worked on it this fall. Bear in mind, I'm not the best flyer so the routine was an easy one. Got up the courage and gas the emcee my CD and got ready to perform. The CD wouldn't play on the sound system so I ended up flying randomly in costume. Didn't crash, thank goodness. Will probably try again next year. Note: Our local festival is the last weekend in October so the Halloween/Dracula theme went over pretty well. 3. Of course our own in October, 2012. The Blue Ridge Kite Festival in Salem, VA in April, 2012 The Mile High Kite Fly at Beech Mountain, NC on Labor Day, 2012 The ODSKC in June, 2012 at Richmond, VA The OBSKC at Nags Head, NC in October, 2012 And I'm considering the Kitemaker's Retreat in Maryland in February, 2012 (I may not be good enough to keep up with everyone) I think that's plenty. 4. I post a few photos to my blog (which is way behind right now) and to Kites Unlimited & BirdStuff, etc. on Facebook (that's our local kite shop). kjm
  13. I have to add my two cents here about our local brick & mortar kite shop, Kites Unlimited in Atlantic Beach, NC. Jeri and Don have become close friends and are a fountain of information about kites, kite history and kite art and artists. They keep an eye out for things that I might like and will order anything that interests me. I buy vintage kites and discontinued kites on eBay and they willingly advise me on the kites I'm considering. I know they have saved me from some bad deals. They sponsor our local kite club and have a weekly fly at the local state park. Many of the members do not live locally but travel down several times a year to fly together. It's a very informal club. And they have an annual kite festival that has just completed its 24th year. I am completely spoiled by having this shop so close. They feed my addiction. LOL kjm
  14. OK we'll move on to another topic. GO PACK GO!!!!!! If it's Monday night, it must be football! GO PACK GO!!!!!!! kjm
  15. Of course the RNG will pick #461. After all it is a PRIME number. LOL :w00t: kjm
  16. Since its a Random NUMBER Generator maybe you should change your number, to say, 461? It might work better than. changing your name. kjm
