  1. If he could keep it on the ground long enough to cut maybe an acre of grass then I would invite him over 🙂

  2. Thats pretty amazing, thanks for posting this. I’m stealing this and putting it on my blog. BTW We miss you NFO on VC

  3. I guess that would work for really tall Johnson grass. Or trimming the tops from trees.

  4. Rev- Yep 🙂

    SS- LOL

    AOA- Good point!

    YOF- Yep, that could be fun!

    WSF- LOL,probably!

    Supi- Agreed

    ADM- True!

    MDEV- Thanks, my schedule just hasn’t permitted me to be on.

    Andy- It is

    Paw- Good point! 🙂

  5. AOA- I was told. Boeing, but he could have been and old MD engineer that moved over 🙂

  6. I’m sorry, but I don’t get it. And I’m not ashamed to admit I don’t get much.

    Love,
    Lola

  7. I won’t show my brother-in-law (works for JPL) the video or he will try to top the Boeing solution…

    It’s a metaphor for “American” in every possible sense of the word.

  8. I can clearly remember my USAF father, a bird colonel, telling me one time:

    “The F4 Phantom is proof that if you put a big enough engine on it, you can make a brick fly.”

  9. Boeing? Are you sure? It would seem to have been built by Lawrence Hovermower Laboratories.
