To further the geek cred, the Automata series was based on a series of Penny Arcade comics by the same name.

We took our first flight trip from AR to Chicago this weekend with our 10 month old. The one infant related thing we neglected to bring was some outlet covers for our hostel room, so that’ll certainly be on the list for the future.

One more point to add. Yes, rust removes important structural components and features. It does so indiscriminately.

Can’t argue that. What we can comment on is the fact that people tend to take things to extremes.

The problem I see is stupid people in the aftermarket. Doing HP upgrades on the cheap and dirty usually doesn’t do more than blow up motors.

We use YNAB4 and make sure to split our transactions into the appropriate categories. Same goes for our restaurant and alcohol budgets.

Nice. I did that with the Coats and Caffeine crowd last year. It is a great drive.

Good drive, that. I miss taking my WRX down to Devil’s Den.

It wasn’t a great situation, and I certainly didn’t make a good decision.

I took an online “On Death And Dying” course in 2012 during my summer internship in Colorado. Not only was I in freaking CO for a summer, I was living with some long time friends. So yeah, I didn’t get shit done in that course.

If you’re looking for wildlife, head out for viewing at sunrise and sunset. That’s when the critters are most active.

Multitasking in most situations can be defined as “Doing multiple things poorly at the same time.”

I feel like there might be a half verbal, very subtle pun there. Getting crushed between boat and ship would be a pretty abrupt end.

It possibly could have come out of the back, but I think anything actually coming out of the engine and impacting the fuselage is going to make a drastically different damage pattern.

Thanks for that info. I didn’t look at the overall layout of the airframe, just going by the images and video available.

Where’s the rest of the cowling? The impact and imbalance knocked a whole bunch of shit off, which could get pushed into the path of movement of the aircraft.

Look at the video... The busted window is almost the last window on the plane, far aft of the end of the engine. If the blade had gone through the casing and impacted the fuselage, you’d expect it to be very close to the plane of the rotor hub.
