Looking at a map I would guess 2 to 3 hours North of there, depending on traffic. I'm at the top of the UP.

So wait, you were shrunk down and then rode the moth or it was a giant-sized moth that you then boarded? I wasn't aware that UK scientists had perfect genetic manipulation to that degree!


As for drinking.

... well, if you say so...


Pics or it didn't happen. ;-)


It's not big enough yet! ;-)

And you keep asking for a prize, but where's the party, huh?!?

1.I tend to feel intimidated when I meet most non-Americans since they usually know at least two more languages than I do, which I tend to equate with intellectual prowess. The only tongues I know are "American" English and various dialects of Dwarven, and a smattering of orcish and elvish for insults.


2.Wow, talk about an obnoxious attitude and, if his twit avatar resembles him, a perfect face for punching.

Interaction....open verbal combat....

You say toe-may-toe, I say toe-mah-toe...;)

So way up there past Houghton? Keweenaw Co.?

If so, here is a fascinating report on visiting the highest point of said county: http://cohp.org/mi/Keweenaw_1.html :)

Copper Harbor to be exact.

That is a fascinating piece of land. I feel your isolation just looking at a map! :)

Hey Crow,what about shitty racing games? What comes to mind of a game that you played or want to play?

We don't, we had a giant moth shipped over from Japan. Godzilla had just given him a beating and he needed somewhere to recover. :-)

But this is the Tiger Moth I was referring to.

Good point, why haven't you given me a party yet, Hyper? Come on, I want my party and presents. :-)


Sadly not, but I definitely would love to learn someday. The aeroplane I went out in was a dual seat and dual control biplane. I was supposed to get a little play with flying it, but the winds were too strong. I only went a long for a bit of fun, not a lesson, so it was okay just enjoying the open topped flying.

Sounds like a heck of a way to spend a day! The oldest plane I have been in is like a 1970s DC-9. :)

For me, Megarace is coming to mind as something that would fit that bill.

I tend to run into walls even with decent racing titles, so screwing up in that way due to bad controls wouldn't be anything terribly interesting.
But Megarace takes what looks like generic racing at best, then makes it insufferable with the FMV's that are included.
That level of shittiness is what appeals to me.

It was a very nice way to spend some time. I was not up for long, sadly. I was just tagging along while my friend tested the plane one last time. She repairs older planes and sometimes restores a few more of them for resale. I love the older aircraft, especially the Second World War era planes. My dream plane would be a Spitfire or a Hurricane, and even better if I was able to fly it myself. I would be one happy lady. :-)

Are you a pilot, or just a passenger like I was?

I'm a pilot in the Canadian Air Force.
