I haven't been around the last couple of days due to techical difficulties. My house was reduced to "Bricks and sticks" tuesday morning when I was at work. I am now posting for a temporary abode high atop a remote mountain top deep within the Amazon Jungle.

Everything was a total loss. But doen't feel sorry for me. All I lost was "stuff". The only thing that does hurt is thaqt I lost both my cats, Sweetie and Gunfur. The little guys didn't make it. But they are at piece.

Nope. Fire. I almost wish it had been a tornado since I might have been able to salvage my external hard drives that had my back-up of add-on's and other archived files stored on. At least the Insurance company is taking good care of things. They put me up in a "cubical" that has free internet access and gave me an advance on replacing my Stuff. Number one and two on the list: Computer and FSX. The computer is going to come in handy to find the replacement cost of all the Stuff, and FSX will prevent me from going totally insane living in a cubicle. Tongue

I'm very sorry to hear that Roy. Hope you are back to normal soon. If there is anything I can do, send me a pm.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks patchez! I'm doing good. For the time being, I'm filling the time downloading some of my old add-on faves (and resisting "add-on addiction"). Cheesy

The only thing that really bites, FSX wise, is all the repain'ts I had, but never uploaded, and the Black Pearl "Spinderft that I had constantly been "tweaking" on. I think I'll "downsize" and stick with gtting that Type 9 Shuttle tweaked. Wink

But, eventually, the "pearl' will fly again.
