Mish Squish present!!

[MaDuce]

WOW, It's not even Mish Squish yet and I already got an awesome gift from a very unexpected source that; in this case, is surprisingly touching.

The givers asked me to open it on sight so I did.

A radio controlled helicopter!! I know it may sound a little silly but I have wanted one since I was 7 years old, but back then they cost a fortune and were easy to crash and mess up and have had too many other priorities in my adult life, so I never got a chance. 27 years later I finally got my first.

I guess it's a big deal because of how I got it (from friends who are not very well off and went out of their way to hunt it down) and the sentimental element.

Sorry for the rant. I am just very psyched about it.

RC helicopters are a blast.

Hey man. We all have other hobbies than weapons. This is just the place that we concentrate talking about weapons.

Hell....I used to be involved in a model train shop. Just imagine................

Oh....you don't like how I fixed your train? Then you sure as hell won't like it when I "mist" it with my AR-10. <lmao>

Oh, Sorry. I am use to people I know knowing that theme. Mish is the Russian word for mouse. It's just a cute term for Christmas.

Yeah, that's true.

I use to be a hard core model builder. Not much anymore. Working very slowly on a sail ship for a local consignment store. That's about it.

DANG!!! After watching those maneuvers I was not at all shocked to see it crash. That guy has some huevos rancheros as well as some skill.

That guy probably wishes he got the kill switch option :o Shouldna ate before I watched that :puke: <lmao> <laughs>

Well, fortunately mine is not particularly fancy or heavy. It's mostly made out of aluminum and high strength plastic like the grip on your AR. I don't think it's going to have any trouble getting back up should it bite the dust.

It DOES have two cool features. Video camera, so you can see the world from the chopper's point of view. It also has a spot light. I can actually see some genuine use for the spotlight, such as helping someone on a ladder in the dark.

It's this thing.

That's pretty sweet, I got a little RC heli for Christmas a couple years ago. I fire it up every once in a while and chase the kids through the house with it. They giggle uncontrollably and shriek and run, I laugh until it hurts just watching the fun.

And then you got this  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Kslv7l75jQ  WTF that ain't right? Here kitty,kitty, :o

[SPBCTS]

I have a cheapo one of these and want a good one very badly...but I know me, and if I go through this door there will be no end to it. 5 years from now I will have a ton of money tied up in them and there will be no end in sight.

So I resist...for now...

LOL. That thing is badly in need of a cartoon voice speaker for yelling stuff like, "ABLDABLDABLDABL!!"" chasing those cows.
