I heard a story on the radio earlier today about Amelia Earhart and you where the first thing that popped into my mind. I looked online for the story and couldn't find anything recent.

That is all.

Because she used to have Amelia Earhart as her avatar.

Yeah I guess pretty random.

That's a huge compliment nicksta, but I'm probably more like Pancho Barnes in real life.

That's what I was thinking, but since my wife has the same affliction I'm kind of used to it. It makes for interesting dinner conservations.

It's not that random, she was my avatar for a while.

I don't usually pay attention to avatars. I'm more of a name person.

I will say I'm a lot like Phineas & Ferb. I've got the imagination, but not the budget.

"Ferb, I know what we're going to do today!"

Now all I need is a cat named Ferb.

I can sit and watch Phineas and Ferb for hours. My son has moved on to more action packed shows.

A comparison to Pancho Barnes is hardly a slander, ECM. Pretty good company, dare I say.

I think so too, but she is a very different personality from Amelia from what I understand. I would give my right teat to have met either one of 'em.

Dear ECM,
I heard a story on the radio earlier today about Pancho Barnes and your right teat was the first thing that popped into my mind.

And here I thought this was going to be a discussion of the finer points of Engine Control Module tuning. I had a link ready to post up and everything!

It does sound like an Asian whorehouse... even the Govt thought so. She was accused of running a house of ill repute there by the USAF but was later cleared after suing them.

Speaking of aircraft, ECM to me, always meant Electronic Counter-Measures. Apparently Mojo comes in pod form, too.

Oh, sweet. I've always wanted my own pod.

Of course, I'm going to have to vote this thread up.

That was a great story, I hope they find more stuff so we can figure out what happened and what her last days were like.
