    1-  You must have been thinking of Baron Von Buttmunch...

    Baron Von Buttmunch: A Prussian military officer who joined the American Intercontinental Army during the revolutionary war... He was instrumental in the victory of La Guardia Airport and Roosevelt Field Aerodrome...  From the historic marker at Roosevelt Field:

    -Historic New York-

    -Battle Of Roosevelt Field-

    Near this site on August 28, 1776 the Continental Army aided by air support from the Continental Air Force, defeated the British Army and retook Roosevelt Field Airport.  This battle was significant because it was the first victory by the fledgling Continental Air Force and paved the way for the colonial victories at LaGuardia and Kennedy airports.  Led by General Charles Lindbergh and his squadron of vintage F-14 fighter jets, the colonial forces were able to defeat the superior British TIE fighters.

    Approximately 400 feet west of this marker stood the famous ramparts, rammed by Major-General George Jefferson and his courageous band of rampart rammers. The spectacle of which inspired Francis “Scott Towels” Key to write the patriotic hymn “Moving On Up”.   After the battle the airport was converted into colonial America’s first shopping mall which stood there until August 28, 1814, when it was burned to the ground by Canadian forces led by Godzilla, just four days after they burned down the White House. It was on this site where President Benjamin Franklin Roosevelt atop a brand new Sherman tank, dedicated a new airport and gave his famous “Ich bin ein Berlinda Carlisle” speech ten days later. The airport was the launch site of the first Mars-Moon expedition led by Colonel Buck Rogers in 1822. 

    The airport was again burned in 1897 by Martian invaders during the First War Of The Worlds and again in October of 1938 during the Second War Of The Worlds.

    A new mall was built in 1949 out of less flammable materials where it stood until 1955 when it burned down. The current mall which still more or less stands today, is named after the famous Sesame Street muppet Roosevelt Franklin and was built the following year in 1956.

     

    History is amazing... Even though the plaque doesn’t mention Buttmunch, there is a photo of him shooting down a TIE fighter singlehandedly... which was how he did everything, seeing that he only had one hand... it was bitten off by his pet saber tooth tiger (Baby Puss).

     

    2- Cinema 4D is still around... it moved down the block and changed it’s phone number because it’s ex was getting weird... it also grew a mustache because it’s trying to be ironic... believe it’s up to release candidate 21.. or 21,000... one of those.

     

    3- Vray is expensive because it’s made out of a rare substance found only in moon cheese.

     

    4- Twitch is something you get from having too much Red Bull.

     

    5- In Carly Simmon’s Song “You’re So Vain” she is singing about a hippopotamus that she tried to pet at a local heavy petting zoo... it refused to come near her so she wrote the song about it.

     

    I like sharing knowledge.

    I hope not... did yours run off?  Where did you last see it? Was it wearing a collar? Does it bite? Does it respond to a particular name or command?

    I’m not going to go out looking for it specifically, but like if I see it crossing Jericho Turnpike or Veteran’s Highway, I’ll try and not run it over or only run it over a little bit... If it doesn’t come home, I’m sure it got adopted by a nice family and is living on a farm upstate where it has lots of other gall bladders to play with and it can chase rabbits and platypuses all day long.

    I hope it’s not one of those pull-start ones... I hate those. Make sure you change the fuel filter and spark plug often, or you’ll be spending forever starting it... also sometimes the little rubber fuel bulb primer thingie gets leaky, so that makes it harder to start.

    It was probably the spark plug, right?... dirty spark plugs are a nuisance.

    is it bad that today is day 3 or 4 of me rendering the same basic set up... but but... my model looks so cute and she doesn't mind the goofy poses...

    (i'm a little worried what she'll tell the other models...)

    Yes, it is bad... very bad... shameful even. 

    You can’t see it, but I’m wagging my finger at you in a very disapproving manner... my brows are furrowed even.

    Actually, I’ve been rendering materials for three days, so I’m not even making art... just trying to figure out how to make decent materials.

    Well as you can clearly see she found me a delight to work with. Though we did get quite silly.

    Hmmm... Great I can send you my blender apartment and you can finish it for me. I keep adding crap to it but I'm not sure if that is the smart thing to do.

    That sounded like a challenge... I guessed at dimensions, but door height and width is standard... window have low sills... I wasn’t sure if the ceiling is horizontal or pitched (your images show it tilted)... the floor seems like it’s a sunken living room setup... Megh, it’s a guess.

     

    Oh wow. Those are pretty good guesses. I was going to have the ceiling tilted because I had planned for three skylights. It is one of two apartments above a shop (what kind of shop changes).

    @TigerAnne:  Wow, that blew up fast.surprise  I deliberately used the impersonal pronoun "one" instead of "you" to just spread my observations on situations like this to all assembled readers, and not point fingers or imply blame on you specifically.  You're not the only person reading this thread.  OK, you've got a short fuse.  Many of us do.   Don't let it be the control.  Cool your jets, please.indecision

    Dude, I'm sorry. sad I overreacted there. It wasn't personal, you just got caught within the radius of a minor nuclear meltdown. There was also some cultural bias on my part. In Norway (at least the region I live in), we use "one" to mean "you" when we want to be really passive aggressive. frown Please accept my appology!

    In English it's opposite AFAIU - it you want to point out that you're speaking in general and don't mean the other person you're talking to, you use "one" instead of "you". It's like saying "man" instead of "du" in Norwegian I think.

    Grammatically, that's correct. Buut, when you're telling someone they went wrong, and instead of saying "See, you can't do it like that," you say "One cannot [simply walk into Mordor]," you're pretty much telling them "You're an example of the sort of people who do stuff wrong." It's meant to sting. But like I said, this is cultural (possibly local) luggage that you only pick up on if you've lived in the culture for a long time.

    Another example of a cultural oddity, people from other countries often remark that Norwegians aren't especially polite. We forget to say "please" and "thank you," and in languages where there are formal and informal versions of "you," we tend to use the informal one. That's because in Norway we did away with the formal version ("De") because it was... not very friendly. It was not just how you addressed a stranger, it was used to remind people you knew very well that you were not equals. But the society where that was the norm died out, a couple of generations ago by now. If Norwegians are addressing you as De in 2019, you can be sure they're not doing it to make you feel respected. They're either telling you you're a peasant not worth their valuable time, or (more often) it's a less immature way of saying "Yes, your Majesty," and making an exaggerated curtsy. Aloof, overly formal politeness is a sign of hostility and alienation in our "everyday" culture.

    Wait... What?... Why not?... What happened?… Did something bad happen to Sauron? 

    Mordor used to be such a nice neighborhood... Tell me everything is okay there... I was going to retire to Mordor.

    Oh wait... that was Miami... I think.

    Which one has the open lava pits, orcs and old people?

    Gran Canaria. Or maybe it was Mallorca. My aunt has been to both of them, and I'm fairly certain she's an Orc. Oh, wait... MallORCa. There you have it!

    BONUS COMPLAINT:

    I have a hard time focusing when reading other people's stories. I think about my stories more than the story I'm reading. Why did I say I would read this?

    And why do I continue to confuse the cosplayers in my facebook feed for renders?
