Y'know, sometimes they really are paying attention....
« on: December 28, 2006, 07:13:06 PM »
Months ago I found a picture of this old engine and was telling my wife, who always dutifully endures my modeling show and tell discourses, that this was the first model engine I ever owned.  They used to advertize it in Mechanics Illustrated...even spelled it out to her...DEEZIL.  Well, I learned this Christmas morning that here is something going on behind those glazed eyes that appear when I get too long winded on airplane stuff.  To my surprise, she went to Ebay and got all this stuff together and made this plaque for me.  Love it dear.

Phil,
Looking forward to saying "Hi" to your wife at the Fun Fly In.
We are planning some Bi Slob duels, for her.

True love, it has remembered me my wife learning to cut foam wings and helping allways I need more than two hands in some (stunt related, guys ;D) work.
Congratulations to you and your partner, Bill.
Regards.
