- JG300-StoopyWell I'm grounded with airframe problems for the time being. There I was, with the whole day off from work due to a snowstorm, and had just finished shoveling snow outside and was flying online, I had just settled in on the tail of a SPAD ready to squeeze the trigger when the sky went to a deeper shade of blue then everything went black. After power cycling and then leaving things off for a couple hours, there's still no picture, and swapping back to a previous good video card doesn't fix the problem. My monitor seems to be the culprit, the onscreen menu won't come up and it intermittently displays a picture just once if I cycle it on the "auto detect" setting.
I think that damn SPAD driver threw something out of his cockpit in desperation, that impacted the backside of my monitor and taco'd the electronics.

Coulda been a Del Taco Combo, many times I've blacked out after eating one.

Many times we've all blacked out after you ate one!
- JG300-StoopyHeya Dan - and Fr8ycat in case you've fired up RoF online lately - sorry about my recent lack of availability.
I had a sleep study done and they confirmed I have severe sleep apnea and had me get a CPAP machine pronto.
- JG300-Stoopyand I liked it.

Back when I was a teen and riding my Honda 450 on the street, I low-sided twice due to sand in corners....once in a right hand turn and once in a left hand turn. So it was a big day for me to finally overcome my fear of hanging it all out again.

...and a valuable lesson that was. Road conditions are seldom like track conditions, and not infrequently, track conditions are not like track conditions! It's just usually more serious on two wheels.
At least you're back east, where most of the time, there's less sand, grit and rocks on the pavement than out west. Except when there is.
