US Brig Syren by Augie - FINISHED - Model Shipways - 1:64


Recommended Posts

Hello Augie,

 

Everything has been said already, but I wholeheartedly agree with everyone.

 

You won't be lineless, how else are going to catch any fish.

Enjoy the fishing.

 

Take care,

 

Anja

Those we loved but lost are no longer where they were, but are always where we are.

Augie,

 

Can your Admiral makes a picture of you with the camera on a tripod high on that mountain??????

And let her not forget to make a picture of cave number 16  :D  :D  :D  :D  :D  :D

Did you catch anything?????

Sjors, you miss the whole concept.  The technical term is FISHING..........not CATCHING.  I assure you that no fish were harmed during yesterday's expedition.  Our little fishing team is very eco-friendly and would not even dream of disturbing the balance of nature.

 

Put another way ----- NO, we didn't catch a darned thing!!!!!!

 

Back to the Royal yards.

After stopping by the grocery store on the way home from fishing...

 

"No dear, there really is such a thing as the rocky mountain river flounder, look I caught two of them, they go after flies like nobody's business"

Forgive me my stupide Augie  :(

 

It's fishing not catching!

But it's always nice when you've catch something…….

I like your way you explain the environment…...

You are a real nature man  :D  :D  :D  :D  :D  :D  :D

well caught up again.

Nice pic's but I like your comment better. "now I know what they do"

 

Thats the real reason I build, is to understand the mechanics of the ship. I love that feeling of learning or understanding something I didnt.

 

Rocky mountain flounder? didnt we already discuss the rocky mountain lobster?

I need to figure out where Augies fishing.  Seems to be a hidden sea some where in the mountains.

Aye mate.  There was a day when a vast inland sea covered Colorado.  But that was before even my time :D

Thats true but I don't think those flounders are very edible now.  Make for great wall art though.

Yup ----- there it is.  Now we know who to blame.  :D  :D

 

Sjors was right.  We now have 3 threads affected with the deadly 'spherical' virus.  :P  :P

Nah.  Let's let Mark off the hook.  He's the only moderator who sends me musical accompaniment to my build.

Aww not again! :rolleyes:

 

 

**Reaches for the whistle cord once more**

 

I find the irony of the mod having the whistle blown on him amusing.  Mark thanks for making the forum fun.

Don't panic......it's only a boatswain's whistle we use to announce his coming aboard.

Mark.. I think we have two people that lost you on the oysters reference....

 

Only two?  Rats.. I gotta' try harder. :)

 

Sjors and others,

 

Rocky Mountain Oysters are a real food item.  Considered a delicacy by some.  I won't touch them...

Mark sounds like you need to recite the mans prayer a few times.
