Good news thread

With the 80th anniversary of WWII some neat stories are turning up.

My algorithms have been feeding me some of the above and the changes in technology are interesting. The glass jaw weaknesses are also interesting in that while the German tanks were marvels of engineering, they were nightmares to service in the field.

The quantum leaps are also interesting. While the Axis powers got off to a powerful start, Allied technology eventually caught up with improved defensive technology.

The "improvements" have brought about a lot of ethical issues, the big ones being the use of nuclear bombs on Japan and drone long distant killing in the middle east and Ukraine today. Save your views for the political forums.
 
So I bought a near complete Wing and another motor as spare parts for mine (250$). Started to pull the motor from the bike and find it's full of water.

I contacted the seller, told him what I found and asked if could etransfer me a little discount " whatever you think is fair". Instead of crickets he says sure and sends me $50.

PM me if you need parts from a 1980 GoldWing..........
 
I just celebrated my birthday on the 18th of this month 👍

Fun part is we as a family always get together for birthdays and go out to eat.

We do still get together for dinner at Easter and Christmas

My half sister in New Zealand sent me a scarf she knitted out of baby alpaca wool. I'm practicing tossing it over my shoulder trying (unsuccessfully) to look cool.

She also sent some mohair blankets. I swear they must feed the animals cannabis and the cannabinoids get into the wool. Lay down on the sofa with one of the blankets over you and it's lala time.

Hopefully the baby alpacas aren't freezing.
