Phil Perry Posted April 22, 2018 Author Posted April 22, 2018 This has just GOT to be a /sarc parody. . . . unless the gradute 'Graduted' in applied aerodynamics expressed as Interpretive Dance or something like that ?

hihosland Posted April 22, 2018 Posted April 22, 2018 [ATTACH]49317._xfImport[/ATTACH] Forgot the spell check?
red750 Posted April 22, 2018 Posted April 22, 2018 Forgot the spell check? Spell check wouldn't have picked it up. Anus is spelt correctly.
Marty_d Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 There’s ring of truth in the description. Tried to tell my kids what they made those mini-frankfurters of. They didn't want to know.
nomadpete Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 No, Marty. I'm sure that they put the "eyelids, ears & azzholes" into meat pies.... So what does that leave to put into frankweanies?
old man emu Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 No, Marty. I'm sure that they put the "eyelids, ears & azzholes" into meat pies....So what does that leave to put into frankweanies? Pizzles.
Marty_d Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 No, Marty. I'm sure that they put the "eyelids, ears & azzholes" into meat pies....So what does that leave to put into frankweanies? I reckon all the bits that aren't used anywhere else... noses, tails, udders, the little bits around the hooves... (and as OME points out, the pizzle...)
facthunter Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 Mature trees don't have older parts of them grow higher. Once the true wood is formed it's the tree's skeleton and each limb grows outwards and gets thicker and stronger. That car would have had to be hoisted there, when the tree was strong enough to support it. It looks like an XK model (59-60) from memory.. Nev
nomadpete Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 Yes, the first of the Falcons. American built. It's a wonder there isn't a mob of car nuts gathered around the base of the tree, trying to rescue it and resuscitate it.
red750 Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 My first job after leaving school was working at the local Ford dealer detailing these as they arrived from the factroy, to make them ready for the showroom or for delivery. They were a mess when they arrived.
facthunter Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 I didn't like them very much then but eventually owned an XL wagon and an XM car that both went well enough.. A lot of turns from lock to lock.. I think some of them were from Canada, but eventually built here. .It took a long time for Ford to make a profit but they hung in and it eventually happened. Big deal in Geelong, like Chrysler Sigma (Mitsubishi) in Adelaide. . Nev
facthunter Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 America still hasn't gone metric. THAT must be costing them a packet. Imperial ballbearings are about 5x the price of a Metric equivalent. Some early American Motorcycles did use metric sizes way back. Nev
Old Koreelah Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 America still hasn't gone metric... Congress decided to metricate in the 19th century, but progress has been glacial. Reygan put a stop to it, declaring the metric system "unAmerican". Remember when Australia converted? There were big fines for businesses using imperial. Thirty odd years later those medieval measurements are creeping back in, courtesy of local importers who buy cheap stuff made for the US market.
facthunter Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 Thinking logically is becoming un-American. I have to work in all types of thread .When you restore old stuff you don't modify it if you have a respect for the history side of things. I'm bi in metric /imperial about equal in both.. The AN aero system is a good system of fasteners. Nev
spacesailor Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 I find the A,N (I/16 & 1/32") the most confusing of all, We used DIN & ASA with photography many years ago, haven't a clue as to what you would use in French Metric's. spacesailor

old man emu Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Feed me, Seymour! Feed me! [ATTACH]49320._xfImport[/ATTACH]
Phil Perry Posted April 26, 2018 Author Posted April 26, 2018 The French (and most of the world) seem to get by quite nicely with metric nuts and bolts and use metres for altitude and m/sec for airspeed. Perhaps we should all adapt to ONE system of measurement. The feet / metres thing caused a British Mars Lander to burn up in the Martian atmosphere simply because of a mix up between the release velocity being planned as XFeet per second, whereas it was released at XMetres per second and the result was. . . no result. . . and that poor British scientist, Colin Pillinger behind the project died without seeing is dream come to be. . .
facthunter Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 The US gallon is different from the Imperial one Plenty of traps... The Gimli Glider was an outcome based on Lbs/kilos mistake with the fuel. Newly introduced plane with Ops Manual error.not picked up. Nev
