Big Horn is one of those very exclusive gold clubs where it costs $350,000 or more just to join, plus property ownership, and then huge annual membership dues. It is only for the very wealthy.

This Thunderbird crashed in Mountain Home, Idaho late last year at an air show. It was pilot error. The pilot's math was off. He had not allowed for the lighter density of air at mountain airport altitude. Watch the first film . . . then the second, from inside the cockpit shows how soon after ejection the plane crashed. That the pilot survived, though banged up, is amazing..

Sunday morning: 4:50am, Pacific time . . .Spring done sprang out here in the wild, wild west as well, Karen Sue. I noticed it particularly yesterday on the three or four occasions when I took Trixie out for her walkies. She's been frustrating me lately because we did have a system down where she would 'signal' when she wanted to go potty. She'd stand up on her hind legs and paw at my thigh,

This is one absolutely amazing remote controlled [RC] model airplane. Not only did they build its jet engines, but included a retractable landing gear, and built it into a fully scaled model of the SR-71 "Blackbird" that flies just like the real McCoy. This SR-71 model was built by an Engineer/RC enthusiast in Germany, and is certainly one awesome toy. Watch and listen to it soar. http://

Rednecks are not only from the United States - it’s a state of mind it seems. While lounging about the local tire shop, these guys want to see what happens when an airbag deploys. Of course, alcohol was involved.

With all the new technology regarding fertility recently, a 65-year-old friend of mine was able to give birth... When she was discharged from the hospital and went home, I went to visit. 'May I see the new baby?' I asked 'Not yet ,' She said 'I'll make coffee and we can chat for a while first.' Thirty minutes had passed, and I asked, 'May I see the new baby now?' 'No, not yet,' She said. After

It was quite an affair; the whole class was there.It was held at a fancy hotel.We wined, and we dined, and
