Talk about jumping on the marketing bandwagon....pathetic insertion of the Star Wars X wing fighter in the image. No other explanation, certainly not the obvious rigid rear axle.

I'm appalled....

Wow, lighten up there Wookiee-man.

I'm planning on seeing the new Star Wars tonight as it so happens, but not really seeing the cross wing there. Not really a cross at all IMHO. In any event, I'm staying out of the crossfire.

But at Magdaddy's lack of Star Wars knowledge.
It's a really far reach but it would be a TIE Fighter, not an X-Wing.

It was cool to see the wookie again. We also watched IV again after seeing the new one and I think they did a good job. I'm actually looking forward to the next one. Couldn't really say that about the last 3. I have a blipshift +5hp sticker somewhere but I haven't tried it yet.

regretably , I should be able to counter that apparent lack of Star Wars knowledge, with some Hobbit, LOTR useless info.

I've purchased a Blipshift "T" previously and was not impressed with the quality of the "T".

Heavyweight?

I think not. . . .

Saw this shirt today. Thought it to be silly. They had another with the same text, of a long hood running through some esses. Made more sense.

Wouldn't that be a Tie Fighter? Not an X-Wing.

Work in progress. The new garage door rails get installed in two weeks. Had to get the four post in before the snow. Cut the rails in half on one side as a temp. Damn that door is heavy.

Oh, been lifting for over 10 years now, 4 houses in 3 different states.

Don't remember how many motor drops, projects, fluid flushes, track tires on/off.
