Being that guys are not elegant creatures at all, are you sure you want us as nose art? :lol:

I could get both of you tickets to Midland and model for you for your noseart, although it would just be a short subject you'd be painting.
Wow, did I just say that? :shock:

:wink:

How far is Houston from Midland, I'll be there in October and we can try out the 4 radials and do some painting then!

LMAO! :D

Ahem...(throat clearing, wiping sweat from brow)......I think we should take this "Off Topic" discussion to another "Off Topic" forum. Whew! :wink:

And we're actually supposed to be taking the B-24 to Houston this year, so I reckon you'll see it there.

I think that's a good choice. Although I do like the other as well. It's all in good fun.

Some nose art was an assault on religious beliefs on purpose. A good example of this is the flying Tiger sharks mouths. I am not sure what it is all about, but there is some Japanese belief that sharks are from the devil and they are afraid of them. The first mission that the AVG flew with the teeth on the cowlings, was a sucess for them. It was reported that one Japanese airmen returned to base and when asked about what went on, he stated "Those crazy Americans and their snarling airplanes were everywhere."

I think this is where the term "good vibrations" comes from.

For years my wife has promised to do a nude photo shoot for me as a gift for my birthday but there always seems to be an excuse to why she's unable to do it. :roll: I guess she's afraid I would show it off to all my buddies on the men's hockey team I play on and brag about what "I get to go home to every night!" :P She's 36 and has the body of a 20 year old so it's not like everything's gone south yet. :?

My goal is to have a nude noseart panel done up with her as the model so I can hang it on the wall and stare at it every chance I get. :wink:

I don't have any sassy pics of her on my computer but this one was taken of the two of us about a year ago.
