This is my first post here. I knew when I saw the web page that banned Burt Fisher, I had to join. QRZ still allows him to post his garbage. 73.

Downstairs in the Lizard Lounge is our barkeep to serve you anything from a Mai Tai to a Green Dragon if a little extra kick is your style. Entertainment is provided by our house band all the way from New Jersey, The Misfits. http://www.misfits.com/

That's close enough. The Pope, drive-by-Bob, and I rebuilt the club DC-3 down at the IOMH International Airport, and we are curious to see if it will fly. The three of are usually too stoned to fly, so we just fix em, stoned. I think most of it is back together right. The tricycle landing gear had us stumped for awhile, but we finally got the bastid on.

Don't forget that model uses Vaseline for strut lube.

No, but I've seen a pink vibrator with a 2 cycle engine attached. Bought my wife one for her birthday once. She blew it up.

The only strut lube allowed on the Island is K-Y. Most of our struts are very well lubed.

You're confusing the DC-3 with Amelia's Lockheed Electra. That one stays here.

That could be interesting. Ayahuasca typically causes vomiting—you know, much the same as Burt himself.

Its all about the healing. But it might just be sadistically gratifying to watch Burt puking his guts out and crying all night...then sitting there shutting up. That's a nice bonus.

What kids?

The only person who seems to know who these kids and how they feel about Burt is... (do I have to state the obvious?)

...drumroll, please!...

Burt!

Now, I'm not calling him a liar (well, not yet, anyway) about the kids. But without independent verification, one can not take his statements at face value. (And that pertains to more than the kids)
