Internet Scavenger Hunter SETI@Home Installation

Well, my SETI@Home is installed and, as you can see for yourself below, is now running:


*?!#@!  "We interrupt this blog to inform all our viewers that, due to technical difficulties beyond our control originating at Snagit, Copy, Cut and Paste, etc., the screenshot for this seti@home website will unfortunately not appear on this screen today."


Alleluia.  Praise the Lord.  Snagit saves my day by working again...

This ET picture, taken earlier today, is still visible below:










Just an afterthought...

Maybe ET's magnetic personality was the source of all my posting and editing problems.

One thing for sure...

You have a great weekend!

Internet Scavenger Hunter Sikorski-X2 Helicopter

-NEWSFLASH-NEWSFLASH-NEWSFLASH-NEWSFLASH-NEW

The Sikorski-X2 has broken the helicopter world speed record.  It has now been clocked at an amazing 430kph or 267mph!
Contrary to traditional helicopters having a single propeller rotating on the top of the body, the Sikorski-X2 does not fit into the category of rotary-wing aircraft.  The X2 has a compound coaxial  rotor system which consists of two counter-rotating rotors that spin around the same axis, one positioned above the other.  Also, compared to traditional helicopters which have the back prop 
attached to one side of and spinning parallel to the tail, the X2 possesses a pusher propeller perpendicular to the tail and fitted at the rear which can be used to either slow down or speed up the helicopter snappily.  This allows the Sikorsky-X2 to land on short runways; such runways are very common in third world countries.

 See for yourself...Grab some popcorn, sit back, and enjoy the video.

Having a great time. Wish you were here to share it with me... Just found a fantastic restaurant close to the Ed Sullivan Theater, here in Manhattan.  Authentic mouth-watering food.  Great friendly staff.  Reasonable prices. Couldn't ask for more...
